Shabby Chic

Hi Stampers  This is one of the cards the ladies will be making at the Valentine Stamp Camp on Friday, 28 January 2011.  This class had to be rescheduled because of snow so I'm glad I'm going to be able to have it before Valentine's Day!  For today's card, I used the Always Stamp Set.  Love this set – love the elegant images and it's so shabby chic! The base card is Pretty… Read More »

Upsy Daisy the digital way

It was printed on Very… Read More »

Elements of Style

Hi Stampers  You know how sometimes when you made a decision and then wonder if it was the right decision?  Well, in this case it was.  I signed up for Leadership the first day of registration available to me as a manager.  I then came down with pneumonia and as the transfer deadline approached, I was still recovering from pneumonia.  I decided on the last day to transfer and was… Read More »

Be My Valentine

Hi Stampers  I'm still not feeling that great but at least I have antibiotics now and on the road to recovery.  Thanks for all your well wishes – you guys are the best! Something happened this morning that made me feel such better! My BFF in Arkansas,  Jane,  stopped by and left me some chocolate (Chocolates are a girl's best friend! – at least this girl).  She brought me homemade… Read More »

It’s Victoria again!

Hi Stampers  This image is from the Greeting Card Kids Stamp Brush Set Digital Download.  I mentioned that my granddaughter loves this stamp set and named the little girl with the valentine Victoria.  I have the actual stamp set but I also have the digital download and what I like about this is that I can re-size it which I did in this case.   I was going to paper piece her… Read More »

Tags Til Christmas

 Hi Stampers I must be in a vintage mood – it seems everything I've made lately has been the vintage type.  I hope you are not getting tired of them.  Even though this set is specifically for tags, I thought I would make a card with it.  I used Bravo Burgundy Card Stock with the Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper instead of Cherry Cobbler Card Stock.  The lace is our… Read More »
