As this month's hostess for the
CCEE Stampers Challenge,
I asked the team to make cards of
encouragement....AND, if possible, to include a
hug in some way. I chose to use this sweet stamp, which was the gift of a dear stamping friend a few years ago and thought it was perfect to use today. I use it often when encouragement or sympathy needs expression. The sentiment I used is an unmounted one from a stamp convention.
For the
Stampin B's Challenge,
Vicky G. is our hostess. She issued a color challenge --
ivory, brown, black. As you can see I combined this challenge with the other.'
I sincerely hope you can find some time to visit the blogs of both these fabulously talented teams. I know they will rock your socks off......so come on by....here are the links to get you there......

Here are a couple more I have to share:
This was my card for yesterday's Sketch Challenge on SCS. I used the recently released Lilacs set from
Mark's Finest Papers.
This is a card I did for
Bugaboo's Christmas in July Challenge for today which was to use snow on your card.
Thanks for taking time to visit my blog. I probably don't say that enough.
Have a fabulous day!!!
