Thanks for stopping by! I hope you've had a great weekend, filled with lots of crafty goodness. We have been doing nothing, but relaxing. My daughter just finished the first week of her senior year. I was slightly emotional on the first day of school, but in all, I'm a very proud mama. I cannot wait to see all of the things she's going to accomplish.
It's Sunday, which brings us to another Pile It On challenge. This weeks challenge is Friend/Friendly Hello. Our sponsor this week is Inky Impressions. This weeks winner will receive a $10 GC to their online shop. Awesome, right?!
Here is the card I made for this weeks challenge.
I have a friend who LOVES this color combo. It's his favorite, and I wanted to try to use it for a masculine card. I think I'm obsessed with stencils right now. I want to use them on EVERYTHING. lol I have to say, I really like how this turned out. My focal cluster on the left hand side is simple, yet adds just the right bit of "something". And I love those distress inks. They're fabulous and blend beautifully. I do hope the recipient of this card enjoys it as much as I do. I am going to submit this for the following challenges.

CASual Chic #2: Pretty Patterns
Bloggers Challenge: Come Fly With Me (I have a wood veneer airplane on my card)

That's all for me today. I hope you'll head over to see what my PIO friends have created for you today. They're all pretty amazing!
Stay crafty my friends!
