Yeah, I don't what happened to May. Other than I spent it trying to straighten out all of our TV and internet issues. It's a long story that I would really rather not think about too much. Some of it is still ongoing and that is why I have come to show you the few things I did to release the stress. Just today I played with a Concord and 9th die so I could enter in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge. They are featuring Concord and 9th products this week.
My card uses the Hello and Thanks dies. That is the name of the die set, but my card only uses the Thanks dies (words and shadow). It was fun to make. I took some of my ink spots and dragged them in stripes across the semigloss paper that I have a ton of. I think it made a pretty awesome background. I matted that with Bermuda Bay CS from SU and cut the letters of THANKS in the same card stock. A white card base and shadow for the letters finished off the card. I had a small strip of the background left after trimming so I added it to the inside of the card to tie it all together.
Good ole Simon keeps me coming back to my blog, just so I can enter the challenge. I needed it this week. A great break from all the non-fun things of the week. Keep your chin up everyone!
