Saturday Morning Stampin'

Oh, how beautiful a day it is when the children sleep in a bit, and I can get up at leisure, and get a few things done (like eat) and then come down and stamp!

Like pretty much every Saturday, I head on over to Jen Del Muro's and get inspired to play with her SFYTT (sketch for you to try). They're super fun sketches, and most times get me out of my stamping comfort zone!

This sketch was a difficult one for me. I've been loving the Circle Circus set, and so knew I wanted to use that. Actually I thought I would do something with my Slice Machine, but it needed to charge, and while it was, this card just happened. Perhaps if I get a little more time today, I will attempt another card with this sketch.
The Goods
Paper: Whisper White, Dusty Durango, Old Olive, Burmuda Bay, October Afternoon PP, and some old Stampin' UP DSP that I had laying around from a mini catalog from over a year or two ago! Can't remember the name.
Inks: Basic Black, Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, Regal Rose, Dusty Durango
Extras: Swiss Dots embossing folder, scallop circle punch, 1", 3/4", 1/2" circle punches, scallop border punch, Dusty Durango Polka Dot Ribbon, random buttons!
