Hello Everyone!!

Here is a catch up post..

I had super busy weekend and Monday was my little one's Birthday. She is not little anymore( I just don't want her to get BIG..I love my baby), she turned 8!!!!

So now I'm back to my regular crafting schedule...

Here are some CASual Fridays Stamps cards...if you've missed the post..HERE.

I did some fun thing...I always like to buy the journaling card sort of things from different paper companies.As you all know I'm not a scrapbooker, I hardly use them...so finally used them on my card with some stamping on it.

This journaling spot is from Echo Park. I used Hero Arts - Tide Pool and Pale Tomato inks to stamp my Brushstroke image from Breathe stamp set...its a perfect match of colors!!

Stamped the lovely quote from the same stamp set.

The pearl brads are from My Mind's Eye.

I also used some patterned paper from Crate Paper.

Yep! I know its quite a mix-match of lots products from different manufactures...sometimes its fun to do so!

This card is for the following challenges....

Created With Love: Anything Goes.

Paper Playtime: Anything Goes.

Challenges 4 Everybody : Anything Goes.

Next up is a sweet and simple card...

 I stamped the border from the Stop stamp set using various Hero Arts Mid-tone inks.

Added a sentiment from  Mums the Word stamp set. Just embellished with few MME enamel dots.
