Congratulations!

Happy Sunday!
Well girls, I think my mojo might be back........I had some fun in my scrap space last night making some cards and even a layout! I should have enough posts to last a week! Now that makes a girl feel better....

The challenge this week at Less is More is to make a CAS Thank you or Congratulations card. Here's my take.

I've had this fun CTMH set for quite awhile now and had only used one or two stamps from it. It was time to ink up that RAINBOW and did I ever have fun with it! I will share a few more versions later in the week. I also played a bit with some of the newer CTMH inks - sometimes they sit for quite awhile before I start using them regularly since they don't exist in my "mind's eye" until I've used them a few times, kwim? :)

And here is the inside.


My son "Chester" has started his own book blog. We had the idea after visiting the blog of another young reader who was writing short "reviews" of the books she was reading. He decided it would be fun to do the same and I promised him that I would spread the word. If you have a minute to drop by and leave him a word or two of encouragement, I'd really appreciate it and so will he. What a great venue to share a love of reading and practice writing and typing all at the same time! :) He called his blog "The Bookworm's Apprentice" and you can find him here or on my sidebar.


See you soon!

What I used:


stamps: CTMH D1426 Over the Rainbow


inks: sunflower, sunset, tulip, lagoon, black
