Hello Friends,
Did you all have a wonderful weekend?? Our weekends are filled with soccer games and hanging out with family making the weekend go by too fast.

However, on Sunday I did have time to make these cards. I thought I would take out one of my favorite dies the "TOP NOTE DIE" and use it along with a cute stamp set called "Happy Hour". I hope you guys like the two card and have an amazing day!

I entered these cards into 

Dynamic Duos Color Challenge

OMG! look at the lovely background stamp "En Francias" I just think it's so elegant.  I also heat embossed it with some Basic Black embossing powder along with the sentiment.

Here is another card with the same layout but using the Polka Dots background stamp along with the Delicate Design Embossing Folders.
