Thank you Tuesday


Wow...so much to talk about I don't know where to begin. I'll start with the awesome surprise I got on Monday when I went to get my daily SCS fix. I noticed some cards looked like mine in the gallery and then I went to the Featured Stamper challenge and WOW..I saw my name. I was so excited I even told DH (who did not understand what I was saying..hehehe) What a honor to have such talented ladies casing my work. It has been so much fun looking at everyone's take on my cards. Thank you EVERYONE who has played along and left such wonderful words about my gallery. :) So you might have also noticed I haven't posted in a few days. That's because I haven't had time to stamp since this past weekend has been jam packed!! First we went to see the circus. DS had a blast and actually sat still for most of the show until we made a huge mistake of giving him cotton candy!! In a matter of seconds he was on a sugar rush and staying still became a HUGE obstacle...hehehehe Then on Sunday we were invited by MIL and FIL to see Grease the musical. It was so much fun. So after so many activities I was pooped and only until last night did I get a chance to stamp. Whew...after so many days without inking it up I found it hard to make a decent card. I got all these wonderful new stamps but was having some major stampers block. After hours I finally came up with this card. I used the SU Artfully Asian and my new Impress rubber stamps. The card stock is SU Wasabi, River Rock, Chocolate Chip, WW, and Basic Grey DP. The cherry blossoms were colored in with SU markers. The centers of all the flowers have Liquid Pearl. The ribbon and brads are SU. To finish it off I did some paper piercing. I hope you guys like it. Stay tuned for some more cards featuring my new stamp goodies. Hugs Ana
