SMILE

Happy Saturday Friends!

WOW it's going to be in the 60s today here in Ohio and that's going to feel SO GOOD!

Of course, I don't want to get too excited since it's going back into the 30s next week!  LOL

Oh well ... it is February and spring is right around the corner!

Today I spotted a couple of challenge I thought I'd like to participate in so I created this fun fold creation to satisfy

 the 'Different Kind of Card' Challenge at the MFP Stamp Shop 

and the 'Black & White' Challenge at the Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog.

I have to thank my friend Vickie Y (On the Fringe) for sparking my interest on the card fold design.  Be sure to pop over to see Vickie's work ... she makes 'every style' look fabulous!!

I wasn't sure what direction I was going with today's card until I started looking through the Paper Studio 'Harper's Boutique' black & white paper pack.  Since these papers are coordinate, it gave me extra options for my various panels.  LOVE that!

It was also a lot of fun to use some items that have been sitting in my stash

and in over due need of some love (i.e.  my stamps!)

I've become so addicted to die cuts but my poor stamps have been neglected

so today I'm 'sharing the love' ... lol!
