Scallops! I love scallops, and here's my entry into the Blog Hop (my first Hop ever!) Spring is on its way, and I can't wait! I used Papertrey Year of Flowers: Daffodils and Basic Grey paper.

Wow, it's some contest that Papertrey is having this month for their 4th anniversary! Just love their stamps, and use them over and over - I find my favorites, and can't get away from them.

Today's supposed to be another icy day here, so this afternoon I'm going to challenge myself to use one of the sets (many!) that I love when I see them at release time, but just never seem to put to use. I'll post it when I'm done (could be days!!!)

Anyway, here's my card for the contest - I had a hard time picking which is the "best" of my cards for this, but guess this one's going to be it because I like the way the background came out, and I used a lot of Papertrey stamps on it!

Happy snow day everyone!

It's been a long time since I've posted here, and I like to think my card-making has evolved a bit since the beginning - a year and a half ago! But, when I saw the Flower Parade, it was right up my alley - so many of my creations use flowers.

This card was for my son and daughter-in-law's first anniversary - they are both so special! - and I put my good old Papertrey stamps to work!

Thanks everyone for looking!

Have been busy! Would love to "gussy up" this blog, but no time...but here's my Mojo Monday inspiration!

Don't know when all these talented people find the time to do ALL that they do - make cards; do challenges; surf the internet for new stamps, ideas, contests; watch tutorials; AND UPDATE THEIR BLOGS!!! (I never even knew what a blog was before starting to stamp!). And then you have the other life - work, home & family!!!

These are the rest of my recent cards. Am going to try to stay more on top of this! Also need how to do it better! This whole experience is really something that's keeping my mind active ALL THE TIME!

Have been pretty busy - find I'm in this little crafting room every spare minute. TV? What's that? Husband? Feeling a tad neglected, perhaps? Omigosh - it's really all consuming. I love the creativity of making cards, giving them away and not having to store them or display them around my house (I'm not a clutter lover!)

Have been bitten by the paper craze, and don't know which way to turn first - learn more about graphic arts? create more cards? work on my photo skills? Anyway, just want to put my first MOJO card on the web - I'm so proud of myself! Now I just have to figure out how to get the picture on here!
