Colour Q #93


Hello!

Happy Wednesday! I have been MIA for awhile and have been missing you so much. I haven't really been creating but I have definitely been visiting your blogs. Sometimes I am just so inspired by you all and want to hide away and craft my heart out but my time has been limited in that area. LOL!

I wanted to pop in today to share a card I made for the latest Colour Q Challenge #93. I love the colors for this weeks challenge. I bought this little doll stamp at Michael's for only 1$. How cool is that? I love their dollar bins!

Hope all is well with you and thanks for popping by.
