Stamps Temptation

Is it just me or it seems like more and more company come out with many amazing stamps. Seems like each month there are so many tempting new releases. I've been fighting the temptation. Although, I didn't do so well with the digi ones. LOL, with digi image my arguement would be, oh it's only a few bucks, except I always ended up with  more than just 1 image. On purpose, I didn't check how many digis I got this past month. Nope, don't want to know. 

And, last night after a couple months of fighting the temptations, I gave in and purchased bunch of new goodies from Papertrey Ink. My excuse is I need to start working on Christmas cards, that's why I needed those stamps now instead of waiting till next month. Hah. How about  you all, any big spending this month? If yes, which ones are you getting? Come one let's enabling each other, so I don't feel bad with my spending. :)

Okay, let's move on, shall we. This week, it's my week off from Paper Play, but they do have fun challenges this week that you can check out here.  And at Digi Doodle Shop's Best  it's "ANYTHING GOES". Not only that, Judy generously offer a few freebies for you to use. Check out the challenge blog for challenge & prize detail. Here's my card using one of the freebie.

I love the colors of fall. Too bad in Texas, well at least my area, we don't get to experience the full effect of leaves changing colors. Seems like here it just change from green to brown. Blahh... nothing exciting or pretty. LOL, I told hubby one of this say we need to make a trip to Boston or Maine or any area that truly have beautiful fall season.

I hope you can join us for this fun challenges. Thanks for stopping by. Hugs, Vera.
