I feel a little behind today!
We've been out and about the last few days, we left for church on Father's Day and didn't return home until after 5:00 p.m. We went from church to lunch out and then to the movies with my husband's sister's family.
Monday my kids grandma picked them up at noontime to spend several days out at their ranch in Wickenburg so my husband Rick and I headed for Havasu to Lowe's to order some much needed new windows for our house, went out for lunch, stopped by my friend Linda's store "The Sugar Shack" and returned home by about 6:00 p.m. Whew, I'm ready for a day at home with my stamping goodies!
I do have to go out and get some groceries at some point today, darn it!
Sometimes I wish that kind of stuff just magically appeared.
When I checked the mail yesterday I found a nice little package from La La Land Crafts, design team goodies! I cut out my new stamps, (I must say these are really nice quality thick red rubber stamps), stamped this cute La La image and colored her. I masked her off and sponged some Palette Sea Scape blue around her and matted her on a Spellbinders Labels 10 die I picked up at Linda's store. I didn't have a sketch to follow so I just winged it and made up my own. The pink is Papertrey Ink Hibiscus Burst put through the Cuttlebug with a Sizzix large dots embossing folder and the turquoise panel is from the Astro Brights collection of card stock. I finished it off with 5/8" organdy ribbon folded in half and another Spellbinders die from the Fancy Tags collection. Oh, that back ground stamp on the turquoise is an old Stampin' Up! Friend definition stamp.
I almost forgot! I won over at Kah-Wink-E-Dink for my Father's Day card!!

This is an adorable card Jan, I love how you colored her eyes, and the shading in her hair is perfect! Thanks for stopping by my blog and giving me the deets I asked for about your light box. I see them everywhere and they always have 3 holes for the light to go in, but they only show 1 lamp sitting near them. I am going to take your suggestion and make one. Thanks again! ~Diane
Oops, and thanks for playing along in the Kahwinkedink challenge too! ~Diane
