Hi on this chilly day in northeast BC! I’m sending warm wishes from the bear in the Warm & Toasty stamp set(152615)! This bear is what caught my eye for this stamp set, he looks so happy! I did a little “masking” for the greeting by using a couple of pieces of tape to cover […]

THE PINES
I’m adding one more Christmas card to my pile today! This one uses the In The Pines stamp set(153448) framed in garden green. Since these are a two-step stamping collection, I took advantage and used both Garden Green and Pretty Peacock ink to fill in that lovely grove of trees. If you look really closely, […]

DINO DAYS FUN
Hi on this Sunday morning! I thought it was time for a little dinosaur fun which was what inspired today’s card. Aren’t they cute? I did some “stamping off” for the tree trunk and the branches to give a little dimension. This was my second attempt at a card to play along with the new […]
