Just a quick check in! I took a trip to visit my family and have been scrambling ever since I got back. I will tell you that I was pretty proud of myself that I had scheduled blog and Facebook posts during the time I was gone. However, I should have also scheduled a…
I try to stamp a few samples with every stamp set I own . I have been stumped trying to figure out how to use the circular image in the You're So Lovely stamp set. One day when I was staring at the set it came to me! Doesn't it kind of look like a grapevine…
Stopping by for a quick post. I just realized that I have a bunch of deadlines coming up. I have been tootling along thinking I had everything more or less under control…Big Mistake! I looked at my big wall calendar and saw all the red scribbles (which mean things are due!) and realized I better…
It has been at least a couple of weeks since I stamped with the Birthday Blooms stamp set. It seems like it was all I was using so I needed to give it a rest. When I saw the CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #164 I knew it was time to bring it back and…

It is Tuesday and time for the Try Stampin' on Tuesday Challenge #259! Here is the sketch. Here's what I came up with. Honestly this sketch was difficult for me. I think it is because i am used to things being very symmetrical. This is one of the reasons I love participating in challenges, it…
What a strange blog post title. I realize now that is sounds like I am having a challenge with the Balloon Celebration stamp set. What I really mean is that I used the Balloon Celebration for a challenge. I wrote about my obsession with the Balloon Celebration stamp set in this post. This set was perfect…
