Everything Eleanor is probably the stamp set in the new Stampin' Up! catalog that I am most excited about – it has so much potential!  At first, I thought this stamp set would really be for regals and subtles, I was a little leary about brights.  But I decided to try it this morning. 

And for some reason, I have the typical blues theme song in my head, and silly me, will share…

Got my coffee in my left hand

And a stamp in my right

I am sure that you can guess at this point that I need to get out more.

On to today's card…. I stuck with some bright colors, but threw in a subtle just to tone it down a smidge.  And I did not use ribbon!  Can you believe it?  And get this, I did not even use my Big Shot – that is a rare thing.  (Hopefully my Big Shot will not require mental counceling over not feeling useful today.)

This color combo also comes from Emily, she pulled these colors for me yesterday to use and made me promise to use them.  She picked them right before we took her to my mom's for the week, then one of the last things she said to me as we were leaving was, "Now Mom, I will check your website tomorrow and make sure."  I love that little girl!!!  We have so much fun together!

Again, on to today's card:
