I have been wanting to have a lazy Sunday morning for a while so that’s just what I had this morning! I woke up around 8:00 but laid in bed reading Apple News on my iPad. A good way to start the day. Yesterday was nice, Taylor came by in the evening and we grabbed some dinner. She was off to Manhattan with some friends after that. I watched TV and tried to find a book to read. Any suggestions for a really good book? I’m waiting for the new Dan Brown one but that’s not until October! How is your weekend going? 😀
Ok, I apologize for my obesession with the Concord & 9th Happy Balloons Set! I have another card to share with you today using it! It’s such a great set for quick cards and just some stamping! I do love to just do some stamping! The card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I stamped the balloons from the set in Jalapeño, Mermaid and Sugarplum in the upper left corner. My greeting is from the Concord & 9th Enjoy it All Photopolymer Stamp Set and is stamped in Black Licorice using my Mini MISTI, I like to use to the MISTI to make sure that my sentiments are lined up! For the strings I used a Coptic Multi-liner and my ruler to draw them in. Some Pretty Pink Posh Amethyst, Lucky and Sea Breeze Sequins add a little sparkle and finish the card. Another quick simple and fun card with not too many supplies! I hope that you like today’s card! Thanks for spending some of your Sunday with me! Enjoy the rest of your day! 🙂

Nice card. I like clean and easy. If you like murder mystery books check out author Louise Penny. Still Life is the 1st in the series.
Thank you Marilyn! I will check out the author! Thanks for the suggestion! 🙂
Balloons are happy. Balloons are fun. Balloons are versatile. Why would anyone get tired of using them on cards? Great colors and I really like the Oh Happy Day. You have yourself a sensational Sunday my friend. Love & Hugs to you, XXOO 🙂
Yes they are Grace! We all need as much happy as we can get! Thank you! Hope you had a great day! Love and hugs! XOXO 🙂
If you like mysteries, Tana French has a series of detective novels set in Ireland.
Also the Curious Incident of the Dog is one of my favorite books.
Thanks Gerri! I love a mystery! I’ll check them out! 🙂
Oh…. I cant wait for Dan Brown….love him. My fav authors have been on a break, hard to find something good.
Hubby and I saw Detroit yesterday. OMG, WOW thats all I can say. The movie ended and the place was silent. Excellent!
Today hubby and my son are headig down to So. Illinois to wath the eclipse. My son is a history nut so thy will stop in Springfield on Tuesday before heading home. I have so much stuff to work on, I hope I can get motivated
Me either! Love his books! I miss Michael Crichton!
I’ll have to add that movie to my list!
The eclipse was ok here, need to go somewhere to see it better the next time! I find it hard to get motivated, I feel your pain! 🙂
David Baldacci is an excellent author, I enjoy his books but love Dan Brown. I torture myself by waiting till his latest is in paperback, muuuch later than October, lol, read his last one in a day and a half (not much else got accomplished), also enjoy Sara Paretski, but been awhile since she published. I love the bright colours and sequins on your card, we can never have enough balloons, they make us smile.
I like him too but Dan is a great author! I don’t think that I could wait that long! I love to get lost in a book for a long time! Glad that you like the card! 🙂
Love the Balloons, one can nevef have to many balloons. Love the brigbt colors and sequins.
Thank you Virginia! 🙂
