Hope you all had a delightful 4th of July and enjoyed time with your families! We enjoyed seeing and visiting with friends (many from our fellowship!) and listening to Christian music in the Park. Then we ate too much (thanks mom for putting us over the top with those root beer floats, yum!!) and enjoyed the fireworks that the neighboring streets supplied (although they were illegal, they still were pretty from afar!). Addy was a little fearful of the loud noise but Jake loved it. My nephew Will is here and they had a blast with my son-in-law making sure we had a successful firework show of our own!
So what about the title of this post? Can we count running late as exercise? Funny I know and it's wishful thinking! The inside sentiment says "If so, I burned a lot of calories for your birthday this year!! Is this not a hoot!!? I've had this stamp for a while now and was glad I had a challenge to ink it up and share. I struggle with the masculine cards, I just don't have that many stamps that fit that criteria. But then I remembered this fun set I purchased from Taylored Expressions. Here's the challenge at CAS-ual Friday: Create a clean and simple masculine card using kraft. FYI: I love using kraft!!! FYI: I'm not so great with the CAS!! This is my second card because my first one was SO NOT Clean and Simple, I got carried away and forgot!! Silly me! The Kraft Outlet is this weeks sponsor and someone is going to win a prize pack valued over $35! More info here
