So...

I've been busy...which is an understatement. I was lucky enough to be asked to be a guest at last weekend's SU! Regional Convention in Philadelphia. My darling and one of my most cherished friends, Sarah, is an SU! Demo and one of the culprits who got me totally hooked on this craft! We flew down and back to Philly on Friday. We had a blast! I took 236 pictures...yes...236...and have tons to write about. However, I'm tired and don't have the energy to post all that deserves posting...so please...bear with me. I PROMISE to get it done soon. The reason I bring up Regionals, is because we received the So Much stamp set for attending and while I never would have bought this set myself...I find it funny that it's the first stamp set I reached for since being home! This is the first chance I've had to craft since early last week and I'm so glad that I'm finding use for this. It's a simple set but I can definitely see many uses for it in the future!!


One of my very wonderful Mommy girlfriends has asked me to make an anniversary card for her to give to her husband for their upcoming anniversary.


I know them well so I tried to incorporate their style into this card. Simple and clean. I also tried to make it not too girly since it was from her to him. I am really happy with how this came out.
Did I mention that I set up shop at a local craft fair this past weekend? No? Oh, well I'll tell you about that another time ;)
