Happy Saturday! It has been beautiful and 85 here in NC today. After baseball this morning we went to a Kids Fest. Michael played on the slides and bouncy things and rode a horse, but guess what his favorite part was? Holding the kittens! He is soooo my son!
So, I snuck in a bit of stamping time today. Laurens challenge for the day is a color challenge. I didn't have some of the Papertrey colors. so I just converted it all to the closest in SU! colors and went with that. I ended up with Basic Gray, Riding Hood Red, Bashful Blue, and So Saffron.
These colors are a bit subdued for me (well, a lot really if you know me) but thats what a challenge is supposed to be...a challenge!
I thought of this cute little Magnolia first cause sadly she hadn't been inked up yet. I got her from Betty, but I can't seem to find her online to see what her name is?? I used the new Labels 3 again from spellbinders...a must have! The background stamp and sentiment are both from an old SU! set.
I also distressed all the edges on this baby for an entry into the Cute Card Thursday challenge this week...Getting Edgy :)
OK, I have to sneak back off the computer for now. Check back in tomorrow for Scrappy Sunday! -Cyndi
