Hi Stampin' Friends The Feeling Sentimental Clear Mount Stamp Set is one of my favorite sets from the Sale-a-bration Catalog. I love the vintage look of this set. I cased this from a card I found on Pinterest but I can't remember whose it was and it didn't have a watermark on it. I changed a couple of items to make it my own, i.e., different embossing folder, etc. The… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends In making this card, it reminded me of "where's Waldo" from the late 80's. Does anyone remember the book? Where's Waldo? introduces readers to Wally, a distinctively dressed man, as he sets off on "a world-wide hike". Waldo travels to everyday places – such as the beach, the ski slopes and the zoo. The book features 12 detailed 2-page illustrated spreads of the different locations.… Read More »
Hi Stampin’ Friends I saw this technique on Pinterest (love that Pinterest!) I’ll have a video showing how to do the double embossing sometime next week because I have a head cold and you don’t want to hear my voice right now (LOL).

Hi Stampin' Friends As I've said before, it's so hard for me to make a masculine card so I decided to resurrect my "Masculine Mondays". Maybe I'll get better as I get into the habit of making them. I have two brothers who share the same birthday – February 7th. I made the first card here for the oldest of the two. This card is for my younger brother, Bobby. Again,… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends My husband Hoppin' John for dinner. It was delicioius – David is a fantastic cook! In the American South, there’s a saying that, if you eat peas on New Year’s Day, you’ll have plenty of everything the rest of the year, which is why the dish Hoppin’ John made with black-eyed peas is so popular. So what is your traditional food for New Year's Day? I still haven't… Read More »
