Happy Labor Day

Aaahh.... I am so enjoying this day off. My first thought when I woke up this morning was, yay, I can sleep in a bit. Gotta love that feeling when you can just enjoy the day.

Yesterday, I finally get to meet my blog & Hero Arts Flickr friend Trinh. She ordered a bunch of Papertrey Ink stuff when I went to CHA and she said she'll pick it up from me in person so we get to meet. Of course I said yes! She brought her daughter along & I recognized her immediately. She's so lovely & tiny. I am so, so happy to finally meet her!


We went to lunch at Kenny & Ziggy by the Galleria in Houston and just chat. I had so much fun getting to know her. I am hoping to be able to meet up with her again sometime soon & hopefully do some crafting together. Trinh, I am looking forward to all the cards that you're going to make with your new Papertrey Ink goodies!! And I can't wait to hang out with you again!

OK, on to my card. Here's my card using Meljen's digi stamp for their stripe challenge.



I covered the flowers with Denami super fine glitters. You can click on the picture to make it bigger and you can see all the glitter yumminess. :)
I am entering this card for these challenges as well:
Paper Players - Simple & clean
Alice In Wonderland - What make you shine or sparkle
Stamp Something - Something cute

Okie dokie, that's it for today. Enjoy your labor day!! Hugs, Vera.
