Hi Everyone - Happy Tuesday night. I promised you Greenhouse Garden tonight... but changed my mind :-) I wanted to show you this card made using the Asian Artistry stamp. I am really loving this set. Considering that I was really unsure about it..... it shows that going outside of your comfort zone and trying something new, really can bring you into different directions.

I wanted... Read more →

HI Everyone - Happy Friday..... Ohhhhhhh I am so pleased it's Friday. MojoMonday has certainly kept us busy with challenges this week. Here's my submission for day 5. This is from the Stampin' Up! Mini Catalog, which you will be able to download from my blog on September 1. I can promise you that there are some amazing things in the catalog. I had to really hold back from ordering just about everything. I did promise to show you some sneak peaks and so far I have shown you the Shimmery Paint (which I love btw) and here's the grateful/thankful... Read more →
