Busy Monday

Unfortunately, every other Monday might be a little busy - I have a few conflicts, and it is easier on all of us if I just have one post.................

I have a completed card over on the Inspired By Stamping blog
Pop on over to check it out and see the sets used in making this card.  Remember, there is a new awesome blog candy give-away every Monday!!





Actually, just click here to see this post.  I joined in with a few challenges so I gave this card a separate post.  Click over - you'll be happy :).




I am very excited to be the Muse this week!  I can't wait to see how my card inspires you!  To play, just pop on over to the Muse Challenge and upload your card!



STAMPlorations has a new Sketch Challenge going on for the next couple of weeks.
[1st & 3rd Monday of the month]

I tried a stenciling technique I have been seeing everywhere on line.  Even though I didn't take the "class" I learned a lot seeing everyone' s cards.  This sketch is also fabulous flipped.  Pop on over to the STAMPlorations blog and check it out~ Amazing samples!

Whew - this was one crazy Monday!



Thanks for stopping by~

I LOVE your STAMPlorations card! Fun - I thought you used patterned paper until I found out you used a stencil - great result!

Barb Ghig said...

Both cards are just beautiful, Vicki! I really enjoyed creating my card based on your 'Muse Card'...it's such a lovely design and perfect for the occasion! Awesome stenciling on your 2nd card, too! The color combo is fabulous and really pops against the black!
Thanks so much for all of your inspiration!
