SSC 197

Good morning, Friends! Wow! We are already at the middle of the week! It's downhill from here to the weekend! I hope that you are having a super week, so far. It seems to be going good around here but I haven't tried to wake up my son yet - lol! He's been in a good mood these last few days and has been very agreeable and willing to do what he is supposed to do. I hope that keeps up!! He gets out of school early today and has a haircut so I think he should be happy about that.

Today's card was inspired by a sketch from Stamping 411. I haven't played along with their sketches in quite a while. I really liked this sketch! I thought it was unique and offered some fun possibilities! But when I sat down to create, I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do with the the focal point. I immediately reached for my butterflies but, geesh! I feel like I have used those so much. So I went in a different direction. And I think it turned out all right. It uses my favorite colors anyway - lol! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
