Yikes... got to "play"

I am so thrilled that I had a chance to stamp a bit.... thinking my MOJO went on a Carribean Cruise (really wishful thinking.. Cruise that is--- I'm wanting some rainbows (type of flipflop but, cushiony) with the perfect pedicure, sun, and sand... ohhh... maybe a glass of wine to top it off!!! Can you tell it's been a long week?



Played with some Verve. I am and I think will always be in LOVE with the Verve set Wings of Love and dies!! Well, truth be told I love a lot of Verve!! This card is for the Verve weekly sketch challenge on SCS- week 1- sketch by Amber and used the colors from CR84FN53... pink, aqua, neutral (used a couple of neutrals-soft suede and ivory--eeeeks hoping that's okay? 

Here's the sketch and colors




















Also... used the SCS Ways to Use It challenge to distress... was thinking I would distress with distresser and with ink but, ended up just doing the ink!

Hoping for a quiet weekend... DH's B-Day is Monday and we're doing our fav Mexican-throw in a little Cinco de Mayo!! Gotta go get ready!!

Hope you're weekend is going well!
