One person...

Great quote: To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world!
---
I think this is one of my favorite luvey cards I've made. Of course, a pic never does it justice but I was going for simple elegance and I think I got it.

Her dress is all glitz up and just pops out IRL!
---
I used some super old patterned vellum I found stashed away, Papertrey's sentiment and Wordsworth image.
---
Hey, something old and something new! Kinda fits for a wedding card eh? hehehe
---
Ya, it's late and I'm not stamping enough! Hope you out there are all stamping more than me these days! :)

When something is sold out....

you get creative at the dollar store!!! I was so disapointed when PaperTrey sold out of their nugget tins! I bought the Holiday Treat stamps, 10 tins and then realized there are many, many people I want to be able to give just a little something to for Christmas and 10 tins just plain wasn't enough!
---
I even went down to Bellingham to buy a ton of the Hersey Nugget chocolates. But now had no containers to put them in!
---
So, at the dollar store today I started poking around in all the containers and ended up with these glass jars! Just add some tissue to hold the chocolates in place, ranger alcohol inks, embossing and ribbon!
---
Yay! Problem solved and all my friends will be gettin' some chocolate!

The 3rd PaperTrey in my day!



As I have said before, one of my favorite ways to stamp is to sit with the same set and design different ways to use it. Whether it is colors or layout changes I love recreating the same stamps!


Now this wasn't the exact same stamp, but it was at least with the same set! :) Added some flourishes, jewels, a few layers of paper and tied on the ribbon and my order for Thank you cards is complete!

On a side note, I got to spend my day stamping at a friend's house! Does it get any better then that? Well, I won't have time to stamp any more until the weekend so I'm pacing myself to show what I made over the next few days!

I found my joy today and I trust you are finding some too!!!

I LOVE THIS SET!!!


Ok, if you have not had the chance to check out PaperTrey, today is your day! (hehehe) These sets have been ranted and raved about but I haven't been much of an on-line shopper so I just haven't bought any - UNTIL NOW!!!
This is positively the set for me to start with (I make no promises of not being forced into buying more :)
This flower is the second of 4 large flowers, with a matching fill-ins or outlines. The set has a bunch of tiny stamps for you to use your creativity to add layers of colors or depth. And with all the stamp pieces Papertrey has made it so easy to bring in a ton of color!
Beautiful Blooms, is definatly worth checking out!

PaperTrey Blooms are in da' house!!!!


This is pretty simple and basic but I am always drawn to browns and anything with some flourishes! So the flower that made me buy this set had to be the first to see ink!
I used a new Adirondak Sepia & Stazon Black, stamped, sponged and punched and within a few minutes I had my warm up card done!
Now, if only I had enough energy to create more than one card tonight! Oh, well there is always tomorrow!
Hope everyone has a chance to get stampy this weekend, enjoy!
