Not that I have anything to sing about ... gee this (so called) Spring weather has been rather miserable the past few days. Gorgeous Kid and I spent the long weekend in Merimbula and we got rained on and blown away with cold winds. GK still managed to have lots of fun swimming, cycling and doing fun things with his buddy. We even managed an afternoon at Magic Mountain so he was happy! Get back to Canberra and the weather isn't far different, ho hum.
Not that you've visited to read about my whinge ... I'm sure you're here to check out the latest Addicted to Stamps and More challenge yes? We've got a Clean and Simple (CAS) one for you today.
I stumbled across a great new (to me) challenge blog the other day - Fab Friday. This week the lovely ladies have a sketch so I combined my ATS&M CAS with the Fab Friday 03 sketch using some little scraps from SU's delicious Floral District dsp. I followed the same trend inside my card with the remaining scraps - but didn't photograph, sorry. There really isn't much more to say about my card this week - it's very Clean and Simple :o).
I hope you can join the challenge fun this week. Pop over to ATS&M and check out the fabulous design team inspiration if you need a bit of a start. I look forward to checking out your entries.
Thanks for stopping by today, and thanks so much to those of you who take the time to leave me lovely comments. I really do enjoy reading them - they make my day!
Totally gorgeous Patrice! Sorry to hear about the poopy weather down there. It'll be on its way here now...hooray ;-).
