Update: March 1st, 2014

Wow, it has been a long time since I've posted anything - I'm a little amazed that my blog wasn't turfed! *chuckle*

So, what's been going on? Well, I am no longer active as an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator but I still make cards for special occasions and craft when I can.  I recently helped friends with their wedding invitations, gift bags and thank you cards - it felt good to be able to help them get exactly what they needed for their special day.

I've become obsessed with my nails!  So, I'll post a few of the wonderful nail designs that I've done or had done over the past year and whatever else pops into my mind that I feel like sharing with you.

Hope you are still expressing your creative juices every way you can!

Happy Crafting!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Sometimes inspiration can come from just about anywhere and I am so lucky to be part of a great group of gals that share inspiration everyday!  One of my fellow demo's posted a link to a video that showed how to make this cute little couple - I liked it so much that I had to try it right away and this is what I came up with

Have to say that Darling Hubby was thrilled with his Valentine's day card this year!  Here is the link to the video by a woman named Vatila who lives in Australia! Click Vatila's Video to see how to make your very own sweetheart couple!

I hope you got some sweet treats from your loved ones and that you'll give this technique a try next time you have a wedding or anniversary card to make!  I'd love to see what you card looks like too!

Happy Stamping People!

Until next time ....
