You're Sweet!

I went out yesterday and bought a new chair for my desk downstairs.  The girls had given me the old one for a birthday years ago and it was looking pretty bad.  It also wouldn't adjust up anymore, so I felt like I was sitting with my chin at the desktop.  The new one is super comfortable and raises up even higher - woohoo!

Old, sad, short chair...

New, happy, tall chair!!!

I finished cutting all the projects for the Stamporee this morning and designed cards for my Monday morning class.  I have a couple of errands to do today and some cleaning of the craft mess then I can relax for a while.

If you didn't get a chance to come to a workshop this month, I wanted to share the projects we made. Today's card is a fun and quick Valentine's Card using the new You Plus Me stamp set in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  

This card was inspired by Mary Brown's card (click here to view).  I loved the simplicity of her card, but I like to add a little more color.  This is a perfect example of how you can be inspired by someone's idea and make it your own.
