Amazing U CCMC288

February 4, 2014

Another rainy, gloomy day!  I really would love a day of sunshine!  I think it would help lift a lot of peoples' spirits!  It is always interesting how low your energy level is on a gloomy day.  Is it time to take a nap? 

I am down to the last few hours to enter the Create With Connie and Mary Color Challenge this week.  I love the colors, and I have had the Alphabetized Stamp for months and it has never touched an ink pad.  I really like this stamp and I have only seen two cards made with it.  I decided to ink it up today, and what better color than Coastal Cabana.  Here is my take on the card.  ENJOY!!
