CLICK HERE to read my very first blog post for them! What a fun and cool team - I enjoyed every minute of working with them! And all of those awesome gals are still my friends to this day.

My card for today features a beautiful new stamp set from Hero Arts, called Ooh La La! It is full of cool French/Paris themed objects, and a beautiful brush stroke font. It's very graphic and fabulous! I have been wanting to use this set for a while and this was the perfect occasion! I used one of my favorite color palettes: Red, White, Grey, and just a touch of aqua. Ooh La La indeed!
