TSG63 So Glad We're Friends

This week's There She Goes challenge is an Inspiration challenge being hosted by Heather!! She found a picture on another stamper's blog, and decided to use it as our challenge for today.

For my card, I decided to use the new Art is the Window set. I only used the birds from the set, but I love that about all of Jessica's stamp sets...there are SO many possibilities. I also used a Mojo Monday sketch from two week's ago.
Well, that is it for me for now!! It is WAY past my bedtime!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

Here is a look at the inside, where I used a sentiment from the Clearly Sentimental about Gardening. LOVE IT!! I also used the Sun Die-namics from last month's release, finally....I'm slow to change, but I finally come around!! I wanted to add an extra layer to it, so my DP stood out, so I punched out a circle using one of my circle punches from SU. I can't wait to get my new Die-namics from this month though, wooohoooo!!
Well, that is it for me for now!! It's off to the next stop on the hop....JOANNE'S BLOG!! Have fun and don't for get to leave all the girl's on the hop some love!! You never know where we are hiding the blog candy!!
