Celebrate {the day that gave me you}

Also known as my Aunt's birthday, which was yesterday =) On Friday, I'll make my annual flight over to Saskatoon for my weekend of fun with my Aunt. In lieu of a gift, I fly over and we enjoy each other's company for a weekend. It usually involves some meals out and quite a few drinks (those SK women can handle their alcohol!)

Anyways, I'm excited and I used the "Anything Goes" challenge at the Sisterhood of Crafters to create this card for her birthday. I used the Mojo 175 sketch for the layout and started off at my friend Marisa's for a color challenge idea (the Inkspirations design team always has great creations!), but ended up deviating from the colors when I stamped on white instead of vanilla and didn't have the other three colors of paper so I made up my own version - pretty in pink, chocolate chip & mellow moss.




Hoping to get in the rest of the Viva la Verve challenges before Thursday so I can get my name in for the new Verve goodies in the next release. We'll see how that goes....at this rate, I likely won't even make it into my craft room tomorrow. LOL! Stop on by the Sisterhood of Crafters & show us your creation....because this week, anything goes!
