My Strawberry Girl


Isn't she just the cutest little gal? I made the strawberry background paper yesterday and thought it turned out quite well. She has 'diamonds' on the dress frills and in the corner. Love her!

And I do mean NOW!!!!


This little cutie sure can be bossy - what a doll. Hope you enjoy her.

2nd Post - Bad Hair Day...


Why did this blur? Now you can't see all the glitter on her clothing or the Crystal Lacquer on the balloons. You'll just have to take my word for it that she is adorable.

What a cutie huh? His buddy so hopeful for a crumb. Oops, the card isn't going downhill honest - must have put it crooked on the scanner. For the past six months, I have been creating up a storm but not getting anything posted. I'll try to do better....

Operation Write Home

Are you familiar with Operation Write Home?

OWH is a wonderful group of folks who send homemade cards to our service people - for them to send home to their loved ones.. They are so thrilled to be able to get something to send for birthdays and holidays. Right now they have a big drive on collecting Valentine Cards. You can read about it here http://www.owhstarsandstamps.org/2010/11/welcome-to-be-my-valentine-bloghop.html

The Blog Hop will take you to many, many blogs of people who participate in this project. They have shippers and people and companies who donate shipping costs - it's quite an operation.

The gal at this blog,
http://boxofbuttons.blogspot.com/2010/11/owh-valentine-blog-hop-christmas-candy.html
is offering 'candy' (mostly stamping goodies) for people who participate.

Check them out and do what you can. It's so worthwhile.

Anniversary Card for Husband

Since my husband never reads my blogs and can't quit figure out what a blog is and why I would have one, it is safe to post this creation that I just finished. I scanned it against a colored background so you could see that I have finally mastered the corner punching with the scallops - so simple once you know how. If anybody needs help, just let me know - be happy to share my new found knowledge with you. This was real fun to learn to make. The bird is punched from the SU 3 piece bird punch. Punch several of them in different colors, cut them apart and assemble the bird, sponging edges as you go. The branches are from the long SU die Birds and Branches. The hearts are punched from the SU 3 heart punch, the pink one cut down a wee bit to provide for a red margin and then stamped in red with a small part of a flourish stamp. The Text is SU. Hope you enjoy my creation
