This has been one crazy week, that's for sure!
I had been meaning to participate in a few challenges (I have them written down in my calendar!) but I didn't have a chance. The days just seemed to fly by and I never had a chance to do anything crafty!
Yesterday was my 5 year wedding anniversary and I still haven't made my DH a card! How terrible is THAT?! (He's got an "I.O.U." coming anyway. *lol*)
The card I'm sharing tonight features one of my new Verve "Express Yourself" stamp set. I also used September's Key Ingredients kit from Taylored Expressions.
It started off based on a sketch from Mojo Monday a few weeks ago. I never finished it in time and so it lay on my desk for a while.
(*lol* You can see Jonah's finger on the left of the card. He wanted to play with it while I was trying to take the picture! Anyway...)
I really like the set from Verve. Super cute! I'm still trying to find a happy medium with my clear stamps and what ink to use (BTW, thank you to everyone who gave me advice on my previous post. I'm going to try all of those tips out soon!)
Anyway, I'm hoping to get back in my stamping groove this week. I'm going through "challenge" withdrawals since I didn't even participate in ONE this whole week!
The good news is that my wonderful DH got me a new TV for my scrap area so now I can keep up with all my DVR'd shows while I create (I just have to get the cable installed in that room and I'll be good to go. Yippee!).
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit me today. Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!

cute card... Congrats on the TV for you scrap space. We have a one week rule in our house. If isn't watched within the week it's deleted. It really takes the pressure off.

The digi tear on my page is an action, I think I got it from scrapgirls.
