Cutting Edge Roses

Hello!

For the longest time I have wanted The Sweet Life stamps from Papertrey Ink. Those roses are just so luscious and so beautiful! Well, the time has come, and I brought them home to me, AND I inked them up! As soon as I saw this week's inspiration at The Cutting Edge, I knew this was the moment to bring out the roses! I knew there was a reason to buy the dies when I bought the stamp set! :-)
For my card, I took the basic layout of the inspiration card, which I just love.
This week-end has been a bit busier than I anticipated. I started the week-end with a sick little girl. High fever, coughs, etc. I'm finishing the week-end with a sick little girl, and a sick husband. Both are coughing away and sweating out their fevers.

I did have some fun stamping with friends this afternoon. We were testing out the new Stampin' Up! Blendabilities. It was lots of fun, and I wish I could have stayed longer (instead I had to go grab some groceries before the shops shut).

I hope you've had a wonderful week-end! Thanks for coming by to visit me!
