I'm Seeing Spots! A-Muse-A-Palooza #4

I think I'm totally A Muse obsessed lately. I just love their cute little stamps! And their sentiments are so adorable. So, the challenge for A-Muse-A-Palooza #4 this week to use the word SPOT as your inspiration. And you have to use at least one A Muse stamp of course.

Well, I have had this margarita stamp for a long time and it was way past time to ink it up! I searched the internet for phrases with the word "spot" and I knew "hit the spot" was where I'd be going with this card. I have a friend who makes wicked, drop you on your butt, margaritas, so this card will be for her at some point during the school year. I hope you like it and leave a little love in the form of a comment. And come on back, because I've already to another idea for another "spot" inspired card!




Goodies used for this card...
Stamp: A Muse margarita, computer generated sentiment
Paper: random cardstock from my stash
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, VersaMark
Accessories: Nestabilities Labels One die, Ranger Glossy Accents, Ranger Stickles in Lime Green, Copic Markers

Happy Anniversary ~ Mojo Monday 94

Hey...not bad! I'm getting a Mojo Monday card done in the wee hours of a very early Tuesday morning! I found this absolutely yummy American Crafts a la Carte paper at Big Lots in San Diego. It was only $8 for a pack of 60 sheets (score!!!) and has some really bold patterns and colors. I really like the weight too.

This is going to be an anniversary card for some special friends of mine who are celebrating their 2nd anniversary today. I'm pretty sure neither of them check my blog (they're not crafty...), so it's safe to post. If you're having a hard time making out the sentiment, it says... "All that we love deeply becomes a part of us. - Helen Keller" Does that sound appropriate for an anniversary? I think so...

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and please leave a little note so I know you were here!
