Happy Saturday! Summer is in full force down here in Florida and we are enjoying a long weekend with the holiday yesterday and a day off on Monday *yay* That means lots of R&R = being crafty, sitting in my fav sun lounger by the pool with my kindle, sleeping in, watching favorite movies and "playing" in the kitchen ;-) I also have some Whimsy News for you!

Hello Everyone, wishing you all a wonderful Saturday! I have a little card to share with you today which I made using a sentiment set and die from Whimsy stamps . I used the Pierced Stacking Star die from Whimsy by SC Design and the Boy Talk sentiment set also by SC Design. This is a pretty simple card but I think just perfect as a male card. I also did not used much embellies just 2 small star brads and a bakers twine .  To make the sentiment stand out a little more on the kraft cardstock I actually stamped it with water mark ink and embossed it using black detail embossing powder. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your weekend! Hugs,
