*** More Exciting News *** and SSNOTIME 31

The very talented Sharon from "No Time to Stamp" has asked me to be a part of her Stamp Simply Sample Team!!! I very graciously accepted and will be part of a very talented group of women.

Julie , Dee, Tammy, Jennifer, and Becky have some wonderful cards and projects on their blogs. Keep an eye out every Friday for Sharon's challenge and what we all come up with. Hopefully this will get everyone's creative juices flowing and you can have some fun with the challenge.

This Friday's challenge SSNOTIME 31 is to "Use Black as an Accent" on your card. What is nice about Sharon's challenges is that they are very simple. Not many rules and simplicity is best!

Here is my card *** I used a soft pink for the card base and stamped the dots in black archival ink. The dots are a Penny Black image. I stamped the bird house, from Inkadinkado, in black archival ink as well and then used my rectangle Nestability to emboss around the image and then layer on black suede paper.

I added some black satin ribbon just above the dots and then used some foam tape to add the birdhouse image.

Sweet and simple *** Have a great weekend everyone.
