Hi Stampin' Friends In making this card, it reminded me of "where's Waldo" from the late 80's. Does anyone remember the book?

The book features 12 detailed 2-page illustrated spreads of the different locations.… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends Today's card features the Pleasant Poppies Clear Mount Stamp Set or at least part of that stamp set. As you can see by this picture, I cut the set in half. I think I like it better this way. I've used it only once as a background and I think I'll be able to use it more often this way. The poppies were stamped with Versamark… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends The Swallowtail Clear Mount Stamp is a gorgeous plus size butterfly. It's absolutely gorgeous when colored in and I hated to cut off part of the wings to make it fit the card.

The butterfly was then colored in… Read More »

Hi Stampin' Friends When I first saw the Feeling Sentimental Stamp Set from the Sale-a-bration Brochure, I knew I had to get it. I love the vintage look of all three images especially the Ferris Wheel. It brought back memories of when I was about 6 or 7 (I think) and I was riding the Ferris Wheel with my Grandfather. Something was wrong with it and we were stuck at the… Read More »
