SC225... and Stampin' Retreat Weekend!
Hi Everyone! Today it hit 80 degrees... what a heat wave! :) Summer is coming! I'm excited to leave for my weekend of stampin' fun with 12 gals. I had my totes packed and by the door at 4pm this afternoon... my hubby came home from work asking if I was leaving tonight? I told him "if I could, I would leave NOW!" :)
Also I want to give you heads-up as Debbie is giving away "BLOG CANDY" for her 15,555 hits! Pop into Debbie P's Place and check out the goodies! Plus check out her beautiful card creations... FANTASTIC!!
My card tonight is inspired by SplitCoast SC225 (Sketch Challenge). I found some DP that worked well with Baja Breeze and River Rock. And I pulled out an old SU! set Happy Birthday Frame which was from 2001. It worked well with my Retro Flower punches. Then I used a Build-a-Brad for the center.
I will be pre-post another card for the weekend! So pop in if you get a chance... with the spring weather it's hard to be on the computer! Thanks for the visit and I hope you ENJOY!
Smiles... Michelle :)

Oh, Michelle, I love this card... the colors truly make me smile! That combo is awesome. I love the sketch too. Simple, but striking.
I sure wish I was going with you... what fun you'll have! I don't blame you for being ready to roll... that's such a rare treat to get together and stamp and craft with friends and kindred spirits for three whole days. I've been to 5 CKU's and had the time of my life!
Enjoy that good weather! We were in the low 100's (ugh) for about three days, and now we're back down to the low 70's. Go figure.
Hugs and good wishes for a fun weekend!
