Fresh Vintage--Create With Connie and Mary and Stamping 411 Challenges

I spent the last few hours in my stamping refuge, and it was so wonderful to have time to be creative.  I took the time to get ready for my Sale-A-Bration Open House on Wednesday and then just started using my stamp sets, decorative paper, embellishments and tools from the Occasions Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration catalog.  What a relaxing way to spend the day. 

I decided to particpate in this week's Create With Connie & Mary Color Challenge and the Stamping 411 design challenge so here are the details.
