Hey There

I was able to squeeze in a little stamping time on Friday night and had a few challenges I enjoy playing in open so I plugged along for as long as I could before my eyes wouldn't stay open.

This is for the current The Play Date Cafe Challenge to use black, white, and a splash of blue.  Guess I went a little overboard on the blue huh?  I love blue though!!!

I hope you don't want to puke flowers when you see the next few days worth of cards from me :-)  I just tend to navigate straight for the floral stamps whenever I can.  I did break out some of my washi tape that I just received from Freckled Fawn.  This is the plaid blue & green tape that I used on my card.  (I see another addiction to my growing paper stash)

The sketch is an older one from Merry Monday Challenge.  Missed the deadline to play but I still enjoyed the sketch!

Hello

Wow, do you ever come across stamps sets which you love so much you have a hard time putting down?  There are two new ones that I bought while I was on a stay-cation and immediately inked them up and have been going crazy with them.

I have never bought a set from Prickley Pear stamps but when I saw this hibiscus set I had to get it along with the coordinating die.  Loved using the die instead of fussy cutting the flower and can see this set going a long way in my collection.

I colored the images with my copic markers and then fussy cut the enter of the one flower and popped it up on a die.  The pearls were also colored with my copic marker.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
