Greaaaat hosting, Anne, your inspiration challenge gave me sweet dreams and I was able to wake refreshed AND know what I wanted to create! Thanks so much!
I love this Diffusion art stamp of fabulous quotes. I hadn't had a chance to ink it up. However, deciding to go with these journals as my overall theme made all the rest easy peasy!!! The cardstock is white GP. I used VersaFine onyx black for the quotes. The bits and pieces are from an unmounted set by Invoke Arts. I stamped the pen in ColorBox black, the bottle of ink in Dragonfly black, and big pen nib in Lava Black, and the scroll in Raven black. All are embossed with clear ep. I couldn't resist my thumbprint in Archival sepia ink!!! And of course the tiny key at the top. This is matted onto SU black.
I will be back to comment on the day's offerings, I'm off to the PO, I have happy mail to get on it way, including this one to my DS, Sam!!! Thanks so much for the gift of your comments, they encourage me to keep gettin' my fingers inky!!! Happy weekend all.

Wonderful quote stamp! But sweetie, your finger print was all over this card before your thumb ever felt the ink! Love it and Sam will too (what a great mom!)!
