Hooked On Fishing

Sunday, July 5, 2009

Good Morning!

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! We had no less than three BBQ's all weekend and as you can imagine; we're knackered! :) It's also why this post is a little late today. Sorry about that. It was a great weekend though.

So, yesterday morning while I was on the phone with my husband giving him a list of things to get at the grocery store, I get an email from a friend on SCS telling my that I was the featured stamper on SCS. Hold the press: What did you say?!? I immediately told hubby, I had to get off the phone because something major was going down! LOL Turns out, it was true! Me?! The SCS featured stamper this week?! I kept shaking my head in disbelief. I thought only big names got to be featured stampers...not newbies like me. What a huge honor though. I can't stop grinning! :D

Ok, getting back to why you stop by my blog - I have another card to show you today!


I really wanted to play the Weekend Sketch Challenge WSC87 this week because I haven't had the opportunity these last few weeks. And thankfully, the sketch was exactly what I needed to show off the 'Hooked On Fishing' set from Whipper Snapper and Anna Wight. If you've never played with Anna's cling sets before and you love to color, you really need to try them out. They are awesome to color up and I really love that you get a ton of sentiments with them because that's probably what I lack most in my collection.

SweetMissDaisy herself, Anna Wight, and Whipper Snapper will have (at very least!) two more sets to release this month, so be on the look out for them. And you don't want to miss who will be her new featured designers for the next two months! I've just had the BEST TIME designing for Anna and I know these new gals will too. Thank you Anna!! Don't worry though, this is not the last time you've seen me play with stamps from Whipper Snapper. I have a huge order arriving on Wednesday - most of them are from their Fall/Winter 2009 new releases! My hands are itching to color them up!!

Be on the look out for another card from me today too. I was too exhausted last night to finish it, so I'm doing that this morning. :) I've got some girls waiting on me to get this done!
