A Play Date

I remember when my kids were little and they would

have play dates and they always seemed to enjoy themselves.

 Well I scheduled my own play date today

with my stamping supplies and boy oh boy was it fun!

I decided to pull out a couple of kits from Stampin' Up! that I've had 

for quite some time. I was all excited when I received them but

for some reason I was never motivated to actually play with them.

Well, today I decided to play with them...my way.

By that I mean, I took the supplies in the kit and used some

stamps, dies and stencils from 

the Catherine Pooler Stamp of Approval Box and came up

with the cards below.

I used the retired Everyday Occasions kit (I did say I've had

these kits for a long time) and the current

Watercolor Wishes kit pictured below. There's a lot of cool

stuff in this kit and the stamp set is great!

I definitely need to schedule some more 'play dates' in my

craft room - that was a lot of fun!
