Happy Friday! I had a very busy day yesterday at Stamp, Ink, Paper inside Scrap-A-Latte! The Lawn Fawn flew out the door, thankfully I have a little replenishment order coming on Monday! Concord & 9th and Altenew was also popular! Thanks to everyone that came out and supported the stores! A special thank you to Dianne for being the first customer!! My parent’s came by with Daniel and he posed with some stamp sets for me! Note the chocolate around his mouth, I used M&M’s to bribe him! LOL!
Class was fun last night too! We discussed other classes that they might be interested in along with other brands that they would like to see in the store. Brian also finally got his new truck and boy is it nice!! I got to be the first one to see it too! We stopped by Heather’s on the way home for a little Thirsty Thursday fun and it was a full house last night! When I got home I made my card and went to type my post but GoDaddy was having issues hence the reason I’m late today. I’ll be back at the store with ReneeΒ so come on by and say hello!
My card for today is for this this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge…
I used a new Concord & 9th Set that I just love! The card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I took a piece of Black 110lb and adhered some Gold and White Stripe Washi Tape down the right side and then adhered it to the card base. The main panel is Solar White 80lb and that beautiful flower and greeting are from the Concord & 9th You Are Enough Photopolymer Stamp Set. I stamped the flower and greeting in Memento Tuxedo Black using my MISTI and then the two layers are stamped in Altenew Coral Berry and Grapevine Crisp Ink. Some Fun Foam and E-Z Runner adheres the panel to the card and just a little sprinkling of Pretty Pink Posh Gold Sequins are added for a little sparkle! I do love that flower and simple greeting, so fun! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge! Thank you for visiting today! Have a freakin’ amazing Friday! π

Hi Justin,
Congrats on your successful day!

Hello Gerri!
Thanks so much!! Glad that you like the card too! Hope you are enjoying your weekend! π
First up, Daniel just gets cuter the older he gets and M&Ms are a perfect bribe. I love today’s pretty card with the sweet sentiment, the beautiful flower and the bling of the sequins and and washi tape. Have another exciting day setting up your place.
