Are you guys as stunned and sad about losing the great Whitney Houston? I was patiently waiting for her to come out with an incredible comeback album. That is not in the cards though now I am afraid. She was one of my absolute favorite singers of all time and I never thought I would be as sad as I am about this. I suppose heaven now has another angel to sing in its choir.
Today I have a card that does not have any Cricut. I know I know the horror! I just felt like stamping using this stamp set and came up with this. Now this blog is not turning into a stamping blog. Sometimes you just want to quickly stamp something. Know what I mean? This card may have taken 15 minutes!
I used a really pretty set from Close To My Heart called Paper Lanterns. It is a cheerful set that lends itself to plain stamping or will work great with the Cricut!

What a great card...and you are right sometimes it's fun to do something different and this is adorable and fun....and a happy card.
I too am sad about loosing Whitney Houston....I loved her singing too and oh boy what she'd been thru and was so happy when it seemed she had come thru it all much stronger. She will be greatly missed a great voice.
Your card is so pretty! I love the black accents with the bright colours. It's fun sometimes to just stamp and enjoy!
Thanks for sharing! :)
Cute card. Lanterns are adorable.
Yes, Whitney had one powerful voice.
Sometimes you have to do something different. Love the card!
Know what??? It's okay not to use the Cricut all the time. Love your card - thanks for being unique this week!

Very fun! Love the colors and how you used the stamps! TFS!
The thing that makes me most sad about Whitneys death is people putting her on a pedestal, unfortunately she made awful decisions and wasted her God given talent. Love the card. I also like to stamp.
Lovely card, love orientals and this lantern card suits the theme I am planning to use on a scrap page...
The colors make it fantastic! So very cheery!
Love the card... such bright colors!!!! you have me thinking spring!!! Plus it is a good thing to use other tools sometimes... we buy so many tools and so we need to use them all at one time or another.... That is why the paper crafts are so much fun. Question?? with all the moving of things in your home, are you running into stamps you forgot you have????? :) Thanks so much for sharing!!!
