One fish, two fish

Same stamped image, same ink, same chalk... different colored bubble paper, background paper and eyelets.... Gives a little different look.

Java anyone?

It was a cold dreary day (we had a lot of them this winter) and hot cocoa sounded good. So I dug out this stamp from Inkadinkado... What to do with it??? I stamped it on clear vellum, embossed and then colored on reverse side. Layered onto patterned paper.

Moose quilt block

As per the norm, I try to find one craft project to complete during our winter break. This year, I did a moose quilt block with the encouragement from a quilting co-worker. It took me all day to complete this 13x13" quilt block.

Happy New Year

I hope that everyone had the best of holidays.... We had quite the saga.... that's another blog. To start thew new year, I created a fun little snowman card.

Stamp is by Provocraft. Colored with pencils, added glitter to snow line and cheeks of snowmen.

Happy Christmas

December is here... it seems like it gets here faster every year. Must be age on my part. The stamps are from Outlines Rubber Stamps and unknown for the background swirls.

Being Thankful

What are we thankful for? On any given day we should be thankful for so many things. May you have a great Thanksgiving and remember to be thankful of all the wonderful things around us.

November is upon us...

Brisk air, clear skies, sun is shining...

Fall stalks... image was stamped with versacolor ink --sepia, then chalked image to give a rustic look. Image is layered onto dark brown cardstock.

Happy Halloween

Here it is Halloween night...Hopefully everyone is having a fun and safe evening...for me-- no trick or treating...no candy... just some tv, popcorn and ice cream.


This project is stamped in black, colored with markers, glitter glue on the moon (although it doesn't show up on the scanned image) and layered onto black then yellow cardstock.

Fun pumpkins... I have never been good at carving pumpkins, but enjoy seeing them... Here is a fun little pumpkin that has different colors of lights... Also a weaved background with pumpkin.
