A Card and an Introduction

I have some exciting news to share! LOOK!



This is Morgan! She is the newest member of our family. She is ten weeks old and a bundle of sheer puppy joy! And exhaustion. Joy and exhaustion. LOL! So far she loves boxes, her stuffie, and is absolutely fascinated by the world around her. It is a lot of fun to watch her discover and learn.

I also wanted to share another super fun card I created with the Simon Says Stamp July Card Kit. I love this one. It's a bit of a more rustic style than I normally do, but I just love the elements and how they came together!



I did cheat just a bit and used another Simon Says Stamp die with my kit contents, but shhh! Don't tell. *wink*



I hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend if you are here in the United States, and a wonderful non-holiday weekend if you are somewhere where there wasn't a holiday. HA!

Have a Happy!

Happy Fourth of July!

Yes, I'm a day early, but I do hope you will accept my festive greetings, despite.  K.  Thanks.  'preciate it.

This week, the challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog is to go PATRIOTIC!  Fun, huh?!  I am from the U.S., so, naturally, I went with red, white, and blue!  The Design Team is playing with products from My Favorite Things this week!  SO MUCH CUTENESS!!!


I do believe I warned you that there would be anchors involved in yesterday's post!  :)  I can't help it.  I love them!!!  AND...even better... this particular die set from MFT has an anchor AND one of those neat boat steering wheel thingies....is that helm?  I think it's a helm.  I should look that up.  Hold on....

..... K.   So, after some research, it appears it is just called a steering wheel.  Hm.  That's less fun.  BUT...when combined with the rest of the steering mechanism, it is, indeed, a helm, which is much MORE fun, so we will go with that.  YAY!

So, what was I saying?  Oh, yes... the die set... it has the anchor, the HELM, a surfboard AND a seashell!  SO TOTALLY FUN, DUDES!  For reals.  Just sayin'.



AND, of course, Heidi is offering one lucky participant a $50 Gift Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Store for playing along!

So, here's the deal.  Create a NEW project based on the Patriotic theme and link it up to the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog!  You may enter up to five unique projects, but backlinking is not not allowed.  You have until Wednesday at 9am Eastern Time to link up!
