Over at Inspiration Emporium it's "Love is in the air".  I am taking Stephanie Ackerman class "52 card pickup.  I have had a chance to start on this, so I am entering the first of my cards in the challenge.

"Something Messy".  Over at Simon Says Stamp & Show, the challenge is something messy.  I have been working on my backgrounds and trying some different techniques.  I used clear embossing resist and stenciling with paint.  Simon Says is offering a $50. voucher to their on line store.  Not sure the picture does it justice.

This week at Simon Says Stamp challenge is "Ever After"  A couple of years ago I saw the play Mary Poppin's.  Someone gave this stamp and it reminded me of the play.  I used stencil, distress inks.  The houses were die cut, embossed and painted.  Simon Says is generously offering a $50.00 voucher to their on line store.

I am also entering this into the CC101 monthy challenge, what inspires you?
