Clear Dollar Weekend Color Challenge #33 Twirly Time

The weekend already? Time has really started going by fast since my son started kindergarten three weeks ago! I thought it would be the opposite since I am a stay at home mom and my boy now spends 7 hours a day at school, but the days speed by, and so have the weeks!
Anyway, to the task at hand. Right after not having to wake up to an early alarm clock, the Clear Dollar Weekend Color challenge over at paper craft planet has to be my favorite thing about the weekends! This weekend we have the great pleasure to be hosted by the lovely and talented Lisa. Her color choices this week are: Barely Banana, Pretty in Pink, Certianly Celery, a white and/or brown for a neutral, and as an optional addition, Tempting Turquoise. How much fun are these colors? I love how happy and cheery they are! I always struggle to choose out a stamp set to use! Luckily, my newest clear dollar order arrived just this afternoon so choosing my stamp was a breeze today. I chose this super cute set, My Little Ballerina designed by one of my fav's Shawnee (go visit her blog, she has great music along with great creations! ) Thank you so much for visiting my blog and for leaving your sweet comments, they really do make my day! After your visit here, you should stop by my BFF, Cassie's blog and check out her sweet blogiversary candy and all her awesome creations as well!

Aww, thank you for the awesome compliments and the really great job you did showing off my stamp, I love the way you colored it, she looks great in these bright colors and I really like the layering with that nestie (I need that one!), the punced border and the ribbon, so cute!
