TGIF! and also for Beate's Weekend Sketch!

Hi All!
Sorry it's taken me so long to post this afternoon. Don't really know why...just a lazy rainy day here in SC, waiting on Hanna to do or not do whatever it is she is or isn't going to do! I had intentions of doing Beate's sketch earlier today; but then I ran across the "Monk" marathon on USA and I was done! I'm such a sucker for a marathon...it really doesn't matter what it is, if it's on all day, I'll watch whatever it is!
I did finally get this card put together. Simple, nothing fancy; but can I tell you I am loving, loving the new colors this year. I always order a couple of assorted packs first until I get a feel for which ones I really think I'll use a lot and then I order more of the single colors. I also ordered a few new stamp sets, including the Pocket Silhouettes and the Stitched Background stamp. I will also definitely be ordering more of this wider grosgrain ribbon...love it!! Although it did make it a bit bumpy in the scanner (hence the blurry right side). Also I kinda wiggle wobbled the sentiment; but by that point I really needed to get it done. Guess that's what I get for waiting all day to do it! LOL! Still have to say I was pleased indeed with what the UPS man left on my doorstep yesterday evening.
I also got a chance to change the layout for the blog for September. I hope you like it!
Ok, so that's all for me this evening. Am going to try to play around some more this weekend with my new goodies and be back on Monday. Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for stopping by!
