I've just got a quick post for you today, folks. I'm composing this on Thursday night, and I've already stayed up way too late making this card and watching the results of the So You Think You Can Dance show. (The right one went home!)
Here are this week's Just For Fun® challenge colors:
~~
And to make it easier on myself, I used the Mojo Monday MOJO145 sketch (the square one, obviously):
~ ~A quick and simple card using the great Sun Hat (C2777) image from Just For Fun® Rubber Stamps. As you can see, I'm still having a love affair with the dyed seam binding. Although this is my last already-dyed piece. I guess I'll be getting my hands all inky this weekend.
There's a new prize this week. You can win a $50 gift certificate! Woo hoo! You know what that means...free stamps!! So put your creative hat on (pun intended!) and play along with us. Check out some wonderful inspiration for you from the uber-talented design team:

ok....here is my stupid question of the day: what is seam binding (I assume it is some element used in sewing, which is why I have NO idea what it is!! LOL!)
