Welcome to my Stamping Blog

Good Morning All! I've put together a card kit using the Strength and Hope stamp set and the retiring Lap of Luxury DSP. I've wanted to do this for a while, but school/dance/basketball/work and other time constraints have really gotten in the way! Well, no more excuses ... here it is!The kit comes with all of the paper pre-cut and scored for you to make your cards, the envelopes, and all necessary embellishments (ribbon, brads, pearls). (I will even emboss the vanilla card using the Framed...

I finally finished my samples for the Bold Blossom Card Class that I'm hosting tonight! I love the colors IRL, even though the photo doesn't truly do it justice!The colors are Pink Pirouette, Certainly Celery and Baja Breeze.

LOL) to be a pilot for his career! He started out getting his pilot's license very young -- if he didn't get his pilot's license before his driver's license, it was within a month or two! Since then we've made a few trips to visit family, a jaunt here...

Well, I expounded a little on my shirt card that was part of my "For the Guys in Your Life" card class earlier this week. Check out my cute shirt chocolate holder!The item on the right is my Shirt and Tie Chocolate Holder.
