HAPPY FRIDAY - TIME TO STAMP SOMETHING!

Happy Friday all!! By now you all know I am at Convention and it is in full swing!! I am sure I am tired but having a ball - I will have lots of pictures and stories to share when I get back, I am sure!! But, today I am sharing a card for the Stamp Something Challenge which was to show appreciation or thanks! So, I am sharing some ATC cards I made for some friends to let them know how much I appreciate them! For these, I used my Fresh Cuts stamp set, I love it, I think the stamps are so pretty!! I just love all the different ways you can use this one too - I am thrilled that this is one of our new stamp sets and can see it will be one of the ones I reach for again and again! I did do some stitching on these, I have missed doing that, and my hand is feeling better so I have started doing it a little bit again. I just love it, I think it adds a lot!! Make sure you head on over to the Stamp Something site and check out the other DT members....they are all so fabulously talented, I am sure you swill see nothing but beauty! And, why not give this one a shot? Just upload the link to the site so we can check it out!! I will leave you with the recipe for this one as well! And, don't forget, the blog candy drawing is on Monday when I get back! Have a wonderful weekend and make sure you stop by for tomorrows Scrapbook Saturday page!
