Special Delivery




I just received this stamp set from Flourishes using a gift certificate so graciously donated from the company. On release day, if you go to the Forums on SCS and play in the games, you just might win a prize!!

I received a card with this stamp set from my friend Dawn, (flowergal36 on SCS)...and I liked the layout so much, I copied it. Well, actually, I loved the entire card...but I didn't copy the card...The colors and overall "feel" are very different...this is using white, yellow and blue for the Flourishes month's challenge, "Sunshine and Blue Skies." And wouldn't you know it, today it is overcast and cloudy?!! Well, if you click on the picture, maybe you can get a better idea of the colors....one of my favorite combinations!!

And this week's challenge on the Stamping Sister's in Christ blog is taken from the verse Genesis 1:26. "And God said, 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the Earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the Earth."

So for this card, I chose the "fowl of the air..." which I am very fond of. The Stamping Sisters In Christ Challenge blog is featured on my sidebar, click on that and you will be able to view all the DT cards!!

Thanks so much for your visit today...hope you are having a good summer.
