Hi Friends,
Yeah, my computers are fixed! I am back on-line. Wow am I lost without my computer. I have both a lap-top and a desktop. Can you believe they both went out the same day! My laptop totally died and the desktop just wouldn't connect to the internet. Anyway, all fixed.
I have a share for you tonight. My friend and massage therapist came over tonight. She wanted to make a couple of stamped pieces to frame. So, we used Asian Artistry the new stamp set. We used Bermuda Bay and Barely Banana cardstock. Both are stamped in Versa Mark in and gold embossing powder. Colored with the new Bermuda Bay Marker. We also used the Big Shot and the Frame, Oval Scallop. Here our her prints: I hope you like them. I thought they came out very well. Don't forget, the new Catalog comes out on Wednesday!
Happy Stamping!!!!

Happy Fathers Day!
Sorry I didn't post Friday or Saturday. Yesterday we made a trip down state for a graduation party for our great nephew. It was a lot of driving but it was worth it. We also got to see our Son, daughter-in-law and grandsons. That is always a treat. I made a great graduation card and forgot to take a picture! Dah, what was I thinking or should that be what wasn't I thinking??? I'll do another and share it. So I dug a little and came up with a card I cased. It was originally done by Patty Bennett who has a great blog with lots of tutorials on it. Patty can be found at Please check her out. Now for my card This is a great card and lots of fun. I used Petal Pizzazz for my flowers in this card and Chocolate Chip for the flower pot. You can use many other flowers. I don't have it handy but I will be happy to share it with anyone who'd like it. Just email me and ask. I hope everyone had a great weekend.
Happy Stamping
