Mani Pedi Mishaps!!!

Hello, Happy Friday Eve!!!! I am so happy that this week is almost drawing to an end because this weekend my hubby and I are going to get manicures and pedicures!!!! Woot Woot! I know most of my friends and family treat themselves to these like weekly or biweekly, but for me it's a treat because I'd rather spend my pennies on tangible items- Like ummmm... Scrapbook supplies!!!! LOL! So in anticipation of the treat I decided to make a little card to sit on our mail desk ...just in case the hubs tries to back out of our appointment....and trust me we both need it!!! LOL!

Anyway, I used the super awesome New Release stamp set Spa Time from Docerela Creations! Totally love this set because it's just so versatile! You can create gift cards, backgrounds, journal, make cards, use the words on layouts....and on and on!!! Check out my journal entry using this great set and the current "gift" challenge HERE!!!

Ok, So here's my card! Oh, and can you spot the mistake I'm talking about and why I think it's fun?

Drumroll.....well, if you guessed the random black ink smudges on her hair and face--- You are correct! So what had happened was....LOL! She was colored and ready to go, but I picked her up with my messy inky fingers!!! Boo! But, then I thought it was kind of fun because the saying is "Pamper me Pretty" since she is ugly from the dirt and grime of a hard week!!! Am, I digging to deep? LOL! What can I say....I'm only child so my imagination is HUGE!!!! Anyway, just thought you'd all get a little laugh about that! So once again, another reason why this stamp set is AWESOME--without that sentiment I could not have salvaged my smudged cutie pie! LOL!

Entering the Following:

The Greeting Farm- Red, White, and Blue + Ribbon

Mema's Crafts- Red, White, and Blue

Alright, I need to go study now, so please have a fun, safe, relaxing weekend! And stop by and join the challenge at Docerela Creations!!! Take Care!
