Mornin' y'all! Hope your week is going well. I'm feeling pretty good, I've started working out again this week, starting slow with some yoga and stretching and then a more intense workout today. It's good to get back in that routine again!
I also love getting back in the stampin' groove and for today's card I *finally* got to break in a stamp set I got ages ago and just hadn't inked up yet!
This is me whenever I have to pick up my kid from school, not because I don't want to see him but because it's so chaotic and the school administration does nothing to make it work better. Anyway, I left my little grumPEA on a pretty CAS design lifted from this week's Freshly Made Sketch:
And I was happy to see green in this week's Color Throwdown:
I used Daffodil Delight, Crumb Cake, and Garden Green for my colors, though the blends are Shaded Spruce because we don't have Garden Green blends. Why?? I busted out some old kraft taffeta ribbon; it is my favorite ribbon ever and I've got an entire photo box of it so I might as well use it. The die I used is long-retired too.
That's it for me today, peeps. I've already got a card for tomorrow's post too so maybe I can work on a scrapbook layout today! After I finish that cookbook project from yesterday...cheers!
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: Sweet Peas
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Stampin' Blends in Shaded Spruce and Crumb Cake

I love the shading on this little pea, and that the shades of green work. :)
And seriously!! My daughter goes to a different elem school than my older kids did, and for the previous two years I have complained at least a few times a week to one of a few friends, lol, because the drop off/pick up system is a NIGHTMARE. Last year there were often 8 "lanes" of traffic trying to get out of a small parking lot! The drivers don't take turns- it's ridiculous! So this year, there are police directing traffic and they moved the cross walk INTO the parking lot and and and...I want to scream!! Come to find out- a problem came up last year and the police dept made changes and are enforcing it, trying to keep kids safe. Kay but...... Wow. I would love to know why today's parents don't know how to drive in a parking lot or driveway. And yes- why is nothing reasonable being done?! Sorry for the novel, just empathizing that this problem is elsewhere too.
Ha! This is fabulous. Love your little GumPEA! Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
So adorable! That little pea makes me smile! So nice to see you at FMS This week!
