Claire and Pun Fun

I cannot believe I have been lazy on updating my blog. I am sorry for that. I have been scrapping up a storm, but with the weather getting nicer, soccer starting and my job hunting it is so much quicker to post on Facebook then to write a blog post! I will catch up this weekend so you don't miss out on any great layouts. Last night I decided to play with my Puns of Praise Stamp Set from Close to My Heart. I also used the new Claire paper pack, Outdoor Denim and Sunset Close to My Heart Ink.

Here are the 4 cards I made:
