Happy WOYWW to you, dear friends! Today I thought I’d visit a few challenge blogs to see what was new in the stamping world and the consensus is clear:
Spring Is In The Air!
Inspired by that news, I whipped up a pretty card using the ever sophisticated color scheme of pink and black, and one of my favorite stamp sets, Stamping Up’s Blooming With Happiness, with its unabashedly beautiful feminine images and touching sentiments. Not content to stop at the card, I decorated the envelope too.
As you can see, my dear sweet Legend supervised every step in the creation of this card to ensure that it lived up to his standards. Or, is that Mister Naughty Pants waiting in the wings for an opportunity to swipe the organza ribbon?
