Hello stamping friends!
I hope you had a lovely weekend. We have a fun-filled one. On Saturday morning we had a birthday party at the beach for one of our friend's little 4 year old daughter. Then Saturday night a friend of ours had a "wine tasting party". Oh my, we had so much fun!! But, man...I "might" have drank a little too much wine! (wink, wink)!! Yesterday we had Life Group/Bible Study, a little stamping, and church Sunday night.
This week Soccer practice starts and it looks like it's going to be a busy schedule. We haven't gotten the final schedule, but it appears that we will have practice Monday night for Ansley, Tuesday night for Ryan, Wednesday night of Ansley, then Thursday night for Ryan followed by games on saturday morning for Ryan and Saturday afternoon for Ansley!! Lord help me now!! The first game is on Sept 10th (which happens to be Ansley's 9th birthday). I'm already stressed out!!
Ok, on to stamping...
Today I have a double post for you: Magical Monday Challenge & Stamp and Create Product Spotlight sale.
The Stamp and Create Product Spotlight is: Kenny K stamps on sale this week for 25% off!! Make sure to scroll down for my Kenny K inspiration card.
It's also the Magical Monday Challenge time...
We have a lovely sketch for you created by the fabulous Heidi...
We are sponsored this week by Crafty Emma with a store voucher...
Remember, you MUST use a "Magical Character" to be entered into the challenge: Dragon, Angel, Mermaid, Fairy, Witch, etc...
Here is my Magical Monday card...
I just got in the new Wild Rose Studio stamps this week so I HAD to ink up one of the new Fergus stamps!! This is Party Fergus which includes the sentiment, too!!
I rotated the sketch to the right so I could add the banner for one of the strips.
The papers are Beach Bum from Fancy Pants. Plus I also used rhinestones, pennant banner die from Whimsy Stamps, and CC Cutter Squiggles by CC Designs.
This is also for the following challenge:
Paper Sundaes: Button, Banners, Green, or Twine (must use two - banner and twine used)
Scrappy Frogs: Bling
Sparkles Challenge: One for the Boys
Crafts for Eternity: Flags, Tickets, Tags (must use 1)
A Spoon Full of Sugar: Birthday
Stamp and Create: Critters/Animals
Now here is my Kenny K Spotlight Sale inspiration card...
I used Soho for a fun retro card for a friend. Once again, I used the Pennant Banner Die from Whimsy along with some pearls, wrinkle ribbon, bow easy, and Marjolaine paper from Basic Grey.
