SSSC 176

Good morning, Friends! Another Monday. Another week. Ugh! We had a fun weekend, though! I got a lot of stitching done. Nick had a Futsal game. He loves Futsal! Even though they don't keep score, he loves being able to be active! By the way, Futsal is indoor soccer. Then yesterday he had a basketball game and that was fun! They do keep score there and his team won! He scored 6 points! Tonight it's basketball practice and soccer practice. Thankfully, not at the same time - lol! And here we are at the last of January. Wow! 2013 seems to be moving quickly already! 

Today's card was inspired by a sketch at The Sweetest Thing. Karen Giron has great sketches and I haven't played along with her for quite a while. This one, however, doesn't really follow the sketch so I won't enter it. But it did jump start me. I just ended up leaving off the three panels. I couldn't make it work. I'm sure some other creative person would have been able to, but I quite like it this way, too! Super simple!! I adhered a strip of Sycamore Street designer paper that has the bottom flagged to a card base of Pool Party. Then I stamped the Just Thinking image twice onto Whisper White - once in Sahara Sand and once in Island Indigo. I cut out the entire Island Indigo image and adhered it to a piece of Island Indigo card stock. This is popped up onto the card. Then I cut the inside circle out of the Sahara Sand one and popped it up onto the other image. Then I stamped just the 'friend' part in Island Indigo onto a Whisper White strip. I flagged both ends and adhered it to the card. I added two rhinestones to finish it off. Thanks for stopping by an have a super day!
