Wild Wednesday

 Woohoo!  It's Wednesday - and that means an animal card because I'm enjoying Wild Wednesdays right now.

Today's card is made with the Little Monkey stamp set and is for my dad's birthday, which is on Friday.  How can it be September already on Friday?  This summer has zipped right past me.  Has it gone quickly for you, too?

Such a cute little monkey swinging around the tree and clutching a tiny bunch of bananas.

I stamped a banana inside with the Happy Birthday sentiment from a retired Stampin' Up! stamp set.

I'm also participating in the Addicted to Stamps and More! birthday challenge for this week.  

Thank you so much for stopping by.  May you have a wonderful and wild day - even if it's not a Wednesday - hope you get inky today!

Monday Blues

Weekends are the best!  

So when the weekend is over and Monday arrives, sometimes I get the Monday Blues.  

How about you?  Do you love weekends or is there a week day that is your favorite?

Using the Gorgeously Made stamp set that has coordinating dies, I made a variety of these cards using the same layout in different colors and with different sentiments over the weekend while practicing recording videos.  Such a quick and easy card.  Now I've got a great stash of cards to send out.  

I even made one of the cards with a retired stamp set's sentiment and will use it to send to a wonderful couple I know who is getting married.  I've also entered into the Sweet Stampin' challenge for Weddings/Anniversaries.

Maybe it's not such a Blue Monday after all - hope you get inky today!
