It's TUESDAY! And we have some inspriation for YOU!

Yes, the Skipping Stones Design Stamp Tramps have done it again! Amy Sheffer has provided our beautiful sketches for September and the team has done some GORGEOUS work!

Rolled Flower Thank You


I created my card using a BUNCH of rolled ribbon flowers created with a wonderful olive wrinkle ribbon from May Arts. I actually did these flowers at a crop as a make and take so I had a whole bunch of samples from the demonstrations, so I wanted to find a fun way to use them. The sketch for today was perfect!

I used the beautiful butterfly and sentiment from the Victorian Summer set. I just love it!

I am entering this card in the Woodware ANYTHING GOES challenge!

Wanna know what else I love? I love that today is Tuesday and not Monday! *sigh* Four day work weeks are SO much cooler than five day work weeks. Just say'n. Today is also The Hubbums' first day of school with his new students at his new school! Very exciting stuff! I'm praying that it goes well for him today! He is such a wonderful teacher! He really is.

So...here's the deal - It's September, folks. Homework is pretty serious now. Just say'n. So head on over to Skipping Stones Design, check out the sketch and get your craft on, folks! It's time to make something fabulous and link it up! You could even win free stamps for doing it!!!


Have a HAPPY HAPPY TUESDAY, folks!!! It's pouring rain here and the high is 60. Apparently, New England has decided to take this whole 'Labor Day is the end of summer' thing seriously. That's a bit crazy, if you ask me, but I can handle it for a day or two as long as my good weather comes back after that! HA! See you folks later!

Jingle Out!
