Vamp for my Sam

Our second Friday in June already and it's going fast!  Next week my parents get in from Florida for a week!  I'm getting very anxious, I miss their quirkiness and honest personalities!  My weekend is going to be full of family and a bar b q for fathers day this Sunday.  My daughter, Sammantha, plans to come by today and help to clean up the new yard.  I say new because it was later in the summer last year when we moved in and there was no excess time to plant in the reoccurring blooms.  She was over yesterday and started pruning the roses for the season.

I've made this card for my Sammantha's birthday in October as she LOVES Halloween, this image from The Dragons Lair Sam the Vamp was perfect!  Maybe off seasonally, but I needed a change from the crafts for the end of June craft sale and also the summer time images that everyone is using in their challenges.  After all, some times I just want to craft what I want to craft!

I want to remind everyone about the challenge over at Stamping with the Dragon the theme is Friendship and I would love to see your creations!  There is brand new paper packs and a Fabulous Grab bag too!
