Merry Monday 82

DSCF8923

Happy Monday again, peeps!  I hope you had a fabulous weekend!  It was a great one for me….got some cleaning & organizing done in my craft room, just so I can mess it up again, LOL!  Lesley has a lovely inspiration challenge for us today – check this out:



So here we go:

I love aqua and red together….especially since SU had some pretty papers from a couple of years ago, of which I got a wee bit extra!  I paired it with the plaid circular image from Kind & Cozy, adding a scallop of Coastal Cabana. My Merry Monday teammate, Loll, is an incredibly talented stamper and a great enabler as well!  I saw some cute sentiment stamps on her blog and my checkbook took a hit because I just had to have some!  I stamped the words in Real Red, then added another scalloped mat and a sparkly snowflake to finish off my simple card.
