This past weekend I went to a Stampin'Up! regional meeting in Vancouver BC. As always it was a fun event. I learned some new things that I will show you in the coming days. It was inspiring to see the displays and all the lovely things that demonstrators are making. I even won a door…
Do you remember that riddle? It's funny the things the brain holds on to?! I probably have not heard it for many years and yet that was what came to mind when i was working on this post. The answers were an embarrassed zebra or a newspaper! For me today the answer would be this…
Just dropping in for a quick post. I am having my first stamping party since moving to Western Washington. I am nervous and excited. I wanted to show you the gift I made for my hostess. It is a card box and i made a few cards to fill it. I used the Fun Flowers…

Where has the last week gone? I cannot believe I have not posted in a week. Once again a friend asked me if I was okay since I had not posted in a while. I have been stamping and feel like I am getting back in the groove. Thanks for your concern. I have been…
