Skipping Stones Design Blog Hop and BLOG CANDY!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

I apologize for my lateness in posting this morning! I had a teething 7 month old on my hands last night and was up at all hours with him soothing lots of tears. A mother's work is never done. But guess what. I've got stuff to show ya!

Skipping Stones Design is releasing 2 stamp sets today: Birthday Donuts (of which you know I'm a fan) and Whispering Wings (which I am using today).

All of the Design Team and the Guest DT were challenge to try this sketch:

Interesting, right?!? I had fun

with it fer sure. Lookie:

Masculine cards are super hard for me to make...and when I saw these images in this set, I thought "BINGO"! Perfect man card. I stamped the cattails in Memento brown, used my Copics, used October Afternoon's Farm Fresh "South Forty" dsp, added a little copper touch, and whammo! ;)

Oh! And I did the inside, too! :) Check out the awesome sentiment.
"The more you celebrate in life, the more there is to celebrate". Story: I was just stuffing my face delicately eating a Dove Promise the other day and this sentiment was my Promise. I liked it so I immediately thought my friend Theresa would like it. So I posted it for her on her FB wall. She liked it. And I bet she'll read this now and like it again. She's that kind of a person. Consistent. :) AND WONDERFUL.

But how neato that it's in this stamp set, eh? (sup Canada!)

Oh hey, I wanted to let you know that SSD is have a dealio right now too. If you buy 4 sets (like say, you wanted to by Birthday Donut, Whispering Wings, Margarita Birthday, and Buns-n-Crunches..those would be my choices!) then they're going to throw in one of their Bra sets! Check it out!

So onto the super fun: Blog CANDY!!!! :D
