Good Morning Stampers Did you'all make the Irish Soda Bread from the recipe I posted yesterday?  Well, neither did I!  Though I meant to but my girlfriend Jane and I went to see Green Zone and time got away from me.  Matt Damon is to Jane what George Clooney is to me! Today's card features the stamp set "Spring Song".   You can buy this set from the Big Idea Book… Read More »

Whimsical Words and Roses, SCFC7

Good Morning Stampers! When I wrote in the title I thought of  Days of Wine and Roses, a movie from the 1960's.  Am I dating myself or what!

Almost Amethyst Valentine

Good Morning Stampers I'm working on a card for the New Techniques class showing how to use shimmer paint as a spray on your card but first I thought I'd show you a card I made before leadership while I was waiting for my "valentine" stamps to come in. I used the magnetic movers and shapers to die cut the valentine on the right side of the card.  I then… Read More »
