Just playing with some Valentine stamps. This card was made using the Hero Arts set called "Whoo Loves You?" The cardstock is from Stampin' Up (crumb cake, not quite navy, and ridinghood red)

I made this card using a pattern downloaded from Paper Craft magazine. I used a mixture of stamp sets from various companies.  Hearts-Animal Valentines, Stampin' Up
Be Mine-Have a Heart, Stampin' Up

                                 Scallop "I am a sucker for you"- Whoo's your Valentine, Stampin' Up

                                                                Raccoon- ? (I forgot)
                                                         Background- Dotted, Stampin' Up

Happy New Year!

I'm sending each of you best wishes for a happy, successful, dream come true New Year ever.  2010 is behind us and I have resolved that I will take my life back, and share my love for stamping and paper crafting with the people I love.  I will post on my blog, but probable not everyday. 
I wanted to share the calendars that I made this weekend for my wonderful sisters.  I am still working on the last one, so I'll be back in a day or two to share it with you.




I'll get these to each of you ASAP.  They turned out so good.... (Sharing that love!)

I  made these fun little journals from discarded food boxes. Talk about going GREEN! They turned out so cute. They would make fun gifts for kids of all ages. What's your kids favorite food? Create a journal for them with the empty box........ I see Endless possibilities!

I used my Cricut to design this picture for Zack's girlfriend, Jamie.  I am trying to get back in the zone.  Right now, my stamping ability really sucks!  It's hard to believe that stress can cause you to lose the ability to function like this.  I have been using my Cricut so much more and have really learned to love it....  It seems to be my only creative outlet at this time.
I took this picture out on the front porch. You can see the reflection of the trees on the glass. The background mat is actually plain black layered on celery cardstock.
