Hey y’all! How is everyone this fine Thursday? I truly meant to have this post up earlier, but I spent some time with my uncle today and when I realized it was 4:30 I dashed home.
I was asked by Sharon Johnson if I would like to participate in the Stamp Simply 138 Challenge this week, and since I have decided to challenge myself with clean and simple, I said YES! (Don’t worry I’m not giving up my signature style, just challenging myself to get the mojo going.) Here’s the catch however . . . I’m posting early. All the other designers will be posting later tonight around midnight or so but I have my Just For Fun® Friday Color Challenge tomorrow and Sharon said it was okay if I posted early.
The challenge this week is Mother’s Day . . . to either create a Mother’s Day card or a feminine card. I used the JustRite Beautiful Blossoms Set, colored the flowers pink and kept the card simple. I did however add the faintest bit of sponging and stitching.
