Sunday It Is… CASology #208
Happy Sunday evening my crafty peeps…. I’ve been working on invitation’s for the Mister’s 50th birthday bash… and today I picked my girlfriend up from the airport went to breakfast with my family at this restaurant called Snooze the food was delicious and afterwards we went over to Torrey Pines Beach… I’m not a beach type of girl my sister-in-law says take off your shoes come out of your comfort zone and feel the sand between your toes a real challenge for me but what the heck we only live once right! I haven’t been able to play in the haven like I wanted too this weekend. I’ve been working on this card for a few days. The cue word over on the CASology blog this week is Journey. I decided to use a set that I just had to have and never used lol..I’m finally putting it to use. I pulled out a Beautiful Ride stamp set by SSS and I immediately thought of riding my bike to the market on a cobblestone street to pick up some flowers. I think I got the look riding up a hill on a cobblestone street. I hope you like my take on the sketch.
