Texas Bronc

I can make cards using other stamps other than Paper Inspirations. Really! Here's one I made a little while back using Deadbeat Designs stamps. I love these of course being a native Texan. You can get these at my friend's stamp store "BStamps & Stuff" in Longview, TX. BStamps has a great selection and she's going to have a booth at Canton Trades Days this coming weekend. If your up that way check her out. She will have some Deadbeat Designs in some really awesome kits. You will get the stamp/stamps, markers or pencils, embellishments, and all the paper necessary to make 6 cards. Really a great deal! Sheela and I will be holding down the fort in Longview for her, so if you can't make Canton, come see us! Gotta go (Texan talk) do some errands today. See ya later (more Texas talk)! hehe

Late Valentine

I know Valentine's Day is gone, but I just have to share this one with you. I made this card for a swap and my husband. This card is from our baby girls to Daddy. I printed the heart shaped photos from a software program and then just matted them on black and red cardstock. The DP and ribbon is from Hobby Lobby. The hugs and kisses stamp is a Stampendous stamp. I just LOVE this card and so did my hubby. He even put it on his desk. Can't believe it! I know it has been awhile since my last post. I've been so busy making cards for Paper Inspirations. Thanks for stopping by. Please come again, I will try really hard to have more frequent posts. :)

Happy Hatbox

Don't you just want to pinch those cute little cheeks? I mean on his face! This is another Paper Inspiration's stamp, and just too cute. Again, I applied color with my beloved pencils. The DP is Daisy D's paisley garden. What a beautiful color combo. The sentiment is my all time favorite from Stamp Francisco.
I want to thank all of you for your encouragement and support. I hope with all my heart that my passion brings you as much joy as it does me. Come back soon.

How about a little love

How darling is this? I guess you can tell by now my all time favorite stamp company is Paper Inspirations. This darling stamp is from PI and I colored it with my pencils. The beautiful DP is from Basic Greys's Romani collection. The brads are Petite Pearls. All of these items came from my friend's stamp store - BStamps & Stuff. Aren't I lucky to have a stamp store in my town? Stop by and say Hi! if you happen to be in the area. Thanks for stopping by!

Back to the flowers!

The snow was so short lived but amazing. Just got back from the stamp convention in Mesquite. Got to see some friends from out of state, I don't get to see very often. Hello, Jimmie and Becky. I'm sharing with you today a beautiful Magenta stamp that I colored with my beloved prismacolor pencils. Sorry, I lost the name of the DP. I'm real good at that. You think I would remember the name of something so pretty. Thanks for taking a peek!

WE GOT SNOW!

It is absolutely unbelievable! Although it didn't accumulate or stick it actually snowed here yesterday. God is good! It was so beautiful! I pretended it snowed enough to blanket everything and build a snowman. It was heaven. Yes, I'm going to post one more snow card. This stamp belongs to my best friend, Sheela, and she shared it with me. It is a beautiful image from Stamp Rosa. The DP is Daisy D's from a couple of years back, but so pretty. I colored the image with my pencils. Ribbon unknown and the twigs I cut from a wreath I bought in the clearance bin at Michael's. So much joy, I hope all your wishes come true this year.

Okay, Okay!

Well, I've given up on the snow for now anyway. Many years back we did get some snow on Valentine's Day. Still some hope left! Let's bring on the Spring which means another one of my favorites - FLOWERS! One of God's many beautiful creations and gifts to us. This card is a Penny Black image. Sooooo pretty. I stamped it with versafine onxy black ink and colored it with pencils. The paper is from my huge scrap pile and sorry the name was missing. I'm sure some of you might recognize it. Ribbon unknown. I hope this brings you the joy it did me.
