Hi Stampers Today's card features the Thoughts and Prayers Stamp Set. I love the two graceful, calming nature images and sentiments that are in this set. A very simple and quick card to make. The image and sentiment were stamped on Very Vanilla Card Stock using the Baja Beeze Classic ink pad. I embossed a line all around the card about 1/4" inch from the edge and let them… Read More »

Hi Stampers Before I go into today's card, I wanted to let you know that I am having problems (with a capital P) with my old video camera. It broke during the filming of the video on how to emboss only the corner using the Framed Tulips Embossing Folder.

To me, a sympathy card calls for clean and simple lines and that's what this one is. No embellishments, layers or multicolors. I cannot remember where I got the sketch but it… Read More »
Today's card came about because of two things: (1) needed to come up with cards for this month's stamp camp which will consist of sympathy cards. We all need them but are not usually in a mood to make them when we really need them! and (2) I decided to join in on the late night stampers challenge #31 which is to make a monochromatic card. When I think… Read More »
At class today, the ladies were talking about the need for Sympathy Cards. We decided to have a class in September that would be Sympathy cards inclusive. That got me thinking that I haven't made one in a while and the problem is that when you really need one you are not in the mood to make one. So I decided I would at least try to make one every… Read More »

The dogwoods are out around our area and they are beautiful! I was going to take some pictures to share but it's been raining – maybe tomorrow.
