Bloomin' Happy It's Friday!

This has been the longest, most tiring week I've had in a long time!  All 3 of my kiddos got a nasty flu bug...back, to back, to back!  And my hubby was gone for two days of it...waaaahhhh :(  I'm really hoping everyone is on the mend and we all get some good rest this weekend.  3-5 hours of sleep at night just isn't quiet enough for this momma! 

Ok, enough of me crying...LOL!  I got up this morning and told myself I was going to make the best of what ever today brought, no matter what!  So far, things are looking good.  I haven't had to clean up any sickie messes, it's almost 50 degrees out AND the sun is shining.  That makes for a pretty good day if you ask me!  Since I kept the big boys home from school today, I had a little extra time this morning, and of course I used it for some stamping!  With some spring inspiration over at The Friday Mashup, a great sketch from  Fab Friday and bright color inspiration from the latest Muse challenge, I was able to put together a "Bloomin' Marvelous" card!

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Basic Gray, Basic Black, Pool Party, Melon Mambo, Whisper White, Neutrals Collection DSP Stack

Ink ~ Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Lucky Limeade

Stamp Set ~ Bloomin' Marvelous

Other Supplies ~ Top Note Bigz, Large Oval Punch, Scallop Oval Punch, Bitty Butterfly Punch, Rhinestones, Pool Party Bakers Twine, Pool Party Embossing Powder

I wasn't sure about all of these colors together at first, but once I got it all together, I kind of liked how it turned out.  I heat embossed the Pool Party flowers...I love them on the black paper!  Can I just say that I am going to be super sad when Pool Party is gone...it's one of my FAVORITES! 

Wishing you all a great {and healthy} weekend!

Happy Friday and Happy Stamping!
