I hope you all will be spending your Valentine’s Day with the ones you love!  I hope to be spending most of the day in my stamp room! I didn’t get a chance to post this for last Thursday’s  Ways to Use it challenge – Embellishment pile-up (WT204).  So what better time than now, on […]

I’m sure you all have seen all the fantastic stamp sets at Our Craft Lounge.  But did you know that there are 28 new sets being introduced today?  That’s right!  I can’t hardly believe it!  And I have the honor of being able to present one of them to you today.  Introducing the lovely miss […]

I’m so honored to have been mentioned on Marianne Walker’s blog – I Like Markers – today!  She gave me (and some others, of course) this cool award just because I comment on her blog!  How would I not comment?  She’s so very talented and her blog is so informative!  I study it religiously and […]

Only I used pink instead of red, and […]

I made this card for the inspiration challenge at SCS today.  IC166 caught my eye because my daughter and I have been shopping around for nursery furnishings for my soon-to-be first granddaughter.  I love all the fresh designs at the Hunkydoryhome website.  I’ll have to send her the link as soon as I’m through with […]
