Merci


Happy Monday!  I hope you all had a fabulous weekend.  We had a rainy first half of the weekend, but it ended with a gorgeous day yesterday.  My weekend was filled with all kinds of fun. Friday night I met up with two of my college roommates for a quick drink.  It was great to catch up.  Hopefully next time we'll have a bit more time.

On Saturday night, I had a few friends over and was able to catch up on the three little guys scrapbooks.  I need to journal, but am so glad that they are caught up!

And then on Sunday, I took senior pictures for my dear friend, Katie's son.   We took some in the summer, but wanted some with the beautiful fall colors too.  Here is one of the two of them!  Laughter is never far with either of them and I love this picture!

And...if you've made it this long :), my card is inspired by the current Jay Gee's Nook Challenge.  I loved the little flowers in the bottom right.  And...I got to play along with my new CAS-ual Fridays Stamps...they stamp beautifully!  I used the Truth Is and Big Thanks stamps sets.  Be sure to stop on over here for all the gorgeous sneak peaks.

Oh what a great CAS take on the colors (whereas I broke out of the white and did a blue card base, wow).
