A Weekend of Stamping

I had a fun filled relaxing weekend of stamping. It's nice to do that once in awhile (but it also means I have a lot of laundry to catch up on!) Here are my favorites from the group.

Tomorrow, I'm sending this first card to Julie, an SCS member, at DBU and entering in a drawing on Jen del Muro's blog. You can find the information here. Students at DBU come from 50 different countries! It's nice that they do a card ministry. I've sent cards to her before and I'm glad to be doing it again.

For SCS's Inspiration challenge, I used this Lang calendar.

I'm also entering this card in January's Wish RAK challenge #2. My wish is the bashful blue Nestie.

I used a sketch I saw during the holidays at Verve.
