A GREAT SHOPPING TRIP AND A SKETCH CARD!

Hi all!! It feels like a Monday....but it's not - LOL! I love three day weekends, but they always throw me off for the rest of the week! It was a very busy weekend here for us since it's the start of hunting season and my husband loves to hunt with his dad, and BILs and now my son. I have had to get used to it since I did not grow up around it like he did, but it is something he enjoys doing so who am I to rain on his parade? So, Kayla and I did the girls day shopping thing and had a great time - she came home with a whole new wardrobe which she sorely needed since she grew five count 'em five inches this year - can you believe it?! And, she got three new pairs of shoes which was a bonus since we always have such a hard time finding shoes that (1) fit her, (2) are age appropriate since she wears a woman's size, and (3) that she likes. And, I streaked her hair blonde (well blonder than her natural color) last night which I was deathly afraid that I was going to mess up, but she assures me she loves!! So, a great day for us women too -LOL! I did find some time to stamp as well and I really wanted to do Cindy's sketch, especially since she was kind enough to tell me there were no stamp restrictions! Cindy's blog is relatively new to me, but I LOVE everything this talented woman does so if you have not been over there, check it out, you will be wowed for sure! I used my new Punches Three stamp set for this one, and in keeping with the sentiment, made my card monochromatic. The dsp is from the 6x6 Level One Hostess patterns pack which I love - there are some beautiful papers in this packet and they are perfect for making cards! I made this for a special friend and it will go in the mail today! Now, I have to get to working on my workshop projects for this week - two workshops this week and since the opening day of soccer season is this weekend as well, I need to have everything prepared ahead of time - LOL! So, here is the recipe, and I hope you all have a fabulous day! Toodles!
