good times...


The other day I came home to this fun happy mail from Hero Arts:


I played with the Paper Cottage Stamps for today...the neons are coming tomorrow:)


Here's a real simple card...


I had to use that sweet coffee mug:)

Perfect for the current challenge over at A Blog Named Hero:



Up until this year...it seemed like my go-to card base was kraft....this year I've been smitten by white card bases {thanks sherry}, so this was a true challenge for me..

I haven't played along over at Hero Arts so I thought this month's challenge was perfect for my card:



We're back to our glorious Seattle weather...mid-low 70's....yahoo!

The way you split up the doily image to frame the panel is cool. Send us some of that cooler weather!
I'm personally stuck on white bases, it seems, but kraft is my close runner up! Love this little coffee mug and doily.
