Sending BIG Hugs

Hi, everyone! Hope it was a lovely weekend.

It's a rather lazily quiet day around here day. The kids have the day off as part of a four-day mini holiday break. No buses, very little traffic... just a few lawn mowers on a sunny spring day.  :)

So, I just had to break down and buy MFT's Up in the Air set. It was too darn cute to resist. When I saw the current MFT sketch, it was screaming for a hot-air-balloon-flying elephant... and I knew it was about time to ink up a few of these stamps.  :)

This little fella is going to fly right into the Send a Smile 4 Kids box that I'm packing up now. And, since it seemed appropriate for a wee little one, I kept it safe for itty, bitty hands.

Parting Thoughts

A new Words 2 Craft By Challenge started up on Wednesday. If you're a fan of Mickey, Disney, and/or numbers -- that's right, numbers -- this is the challenge for you. Hope you'll join us over at W2CB.

Take care and have a great week! Until next time, thanks for stopping and happy scrappin'!
