beachy penguins

I spent this last weekend hanging out with 2 of of my favorite stamping buddies HB & LZ. We had a great time shopping (LZ shared some of this on her blog here...) and stamping at LZ's house down in St. Paul. I always love chatting, sharing ideas, and I always seem to get a good little pile of projects put together. It really fuels my creativity! I need weekends like this every now and then.

I worked on my Papertrey anniversary set projects, which you saw in my previous post, and I also made up these cute penguin cards and tags with my leftover patterned papers that I created with the Simple Little Things set...

I did all of the sentiments with sweet little alphabet sets by Studio G that I picked up this weekend for $1 each - I about fell over when I saw the price and 5 different sets came home with me. I mean really, a whole alphabet for $1? Am I dreaming? And no, I wasn't! I still can't believe it!

The little penguins are by Imaginisce and you can find there here at Eclectic Paperie.

Hope everyone's having a good week. I am enjoying the finally warm weather here in Minnesota!
