back in stampin' mode...

...or so I hope!! I wish I could say I had been on a long, lovely vacation to the beach somewhere, but, alas, such is not the case. Just haven't had any stampin' mojo lately - have had dog issues and car troubles and weather grumpiness, though, so couldn't work up any mental energy for stamping. But with stamp club tonight, I've had to jump back in - especially since it was my turn to come up with the challenge card ideas for this month! LOL! Now I won't post those until after the meeting (don't want any of my club members to get an early peak!). Not to mention that I actually have to go finish one of them as soon as I'm done with this post (can you say Queen Procrastinator!). Just the finishing touches, though...

This card is actually one from last month's club meeting. It was my turn to make one of the projects and this was what I came up with. I've said before how much I love this stamp set. I makes the most beautiful cards and sooooo easily! I had wanted to play with some of my new colors and papers, hence the Groovy Guava. I am so totally in love with that color! I had seen others on SCS using it with Sahara Sand and really liked it. I do think that my Sahara Sand is not quite the same color that I'd seen, but perhaps it was just photography and computers that altered the colors a bit. At any rate, I was completely happy with the way this turned out. Hope you like it, too. :)
