Me again, I just noticed I failed to post this card I made for the challenge over at the Sweet Stampin Challenge............ The sentiment is from Heartfelt Creations HCPC3363 Inspire Me Sentiments, the tag is Fancy Tags 3, and the Flower image is from Serendipty Stamps. I stamped it on designer paper from7 Gypies. scroll on down to see the scrapbook pages I made for my sister..............have a wonderful day, it's off to work I go hehe


Scrapbook Pages













Howdy, thought I'd share what I've done today, my sister was wanting a scrapbook that she could add the pictures to later on. Nothing fancy, and little embellishments. Yes, that part hurt, I wanted lots of flowers, bling and pearls. You know me, but, it's not mine so hope she's happy with it. Everything is black and white, used about every Martha Stewart punch I own hehe, and a few Cheery Lynn and Spellbinder dies. That's it, yall be good and be good at it and I'll catch ya later, we're watching the race, go Carl, but right now it's not looking to good, Tony will probably get it.

Connie

Good Morning............here is one I threw together this morning while the boys are napping. With them running around there is no time to stamp much except a few minutes here and there. I got the new (to me) Fanciful Flourish yesterday that I purchased from Joan's garden, it's from Cherry Lynn and I love how it cuts out the first time and just falls off the die!!!!! I also had Connie colored and lying there, I did emboss the two blue pieces, and other than that and adding the Stickles in the center it was ready. Im not real pleased with it but not to bad.......gotta go to Winston today about my RA and it's cold outside. We did get a few flurries last night but not enough to even cover the ground. Thank God!!! Okay I'm gone, may have to wait and comment on your creations later...Until then, have a blessed day and happy stamping!!!
