Monday-HMMMM. Not fond of Monday. It’s a very busy day for me here. I dread getting everyone up, fed, teeth brushed, lunches packed, breakfast eaten, and all dressed in time for the bus, and ensuring they have all they need. After 2 days “off”, its always tough getting back into it. PLUS I always get to my coffee when it’s cold on Monday. NO FUN!!! Then it’s onto chores-dust, vacuum, dishes, laundry, feed/walk the dog….the list goes on. I am sure I am NOT alone in this. Weekend’s are just better cause Jay is home to pitch in. Did I say I don’t like Monday’s? :C

This week, I have so many new releases to share WOW! The first week of the month is alway’s crazy for me here. I’m still asking WHERE did March go? I really can’t believe it is the LAST day. Here in New England not a sign of Spring.

GOOD NEWS! My body is adjusting to lack of caffiene and my headaches are no more 😀 My mojo on the other hand is still not feeling so well.

OK back to the card stuff-sorry, you know how I just ramble on & on.

 This week I was determined to use an OLDIE-but GOODIE, amongst my new stuff.

If you didn’t know Cindy post’s a MFT Sketch challenge every week, on Monday. So I guess not EVERY aspect of Monday is awful right? You can find it by going into theMFT Forum on SCS. I rarely get to play, but I totally got it done this week! My take varied a little bit.

For you newbie stamper’s out there, as I have said before, the MORE sketches/challenges you participate in, the better you get!

Doing this week’s challenge gave me chance to use my first MFT set called Dino-Mite .

 I so love this set. I can never just color the dino-I have to cuttlebug him, or paper piece him. I don’t know WHY, I just do. I think its more fun that way.

Dawn’s card inspired my circles on the bottom of this card. I {heart} her! She is just so great.

I used my super AWESOME Simple Alphabet by PTI, to spell the “happy” on my circles. They are the 3/4 size. The paper that inspired the colors-is by Scenic Route (love it). The metal charm was a Target find.

I’m missing some ribbon on this! I didn’t want to OVER do it, so I left it off. Poor naked card :C

Anyway I hope you like it. It was a fun sketch. Pretty simple.

OK I’ll return later with the C.C. Designs  peek, after my errands.

Till then!
