I know I haven't posted in a while so I thought I would post some pictures of the latest batch of Operation Write Home cards that I shipped out a few weeks ago. If you don't know what Operation Write Home is, click on the link on the sidebar to the right and check it out.

The above card was made from a digistamp I purchased, but right now I can't remember where I got it from, so when I get that figured out, I'll post it, or if someone reading this knows where it came from, please let me know.

This card was made from a stamp set I have, again, I'm not sure who made it, because I have it out of it's original package, and in a binder where I've put some of my stamps in for easier access.

This little guy is from a stamp I purchased from http://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/ . They have some of the cutest stamps there. Even though they are from the UK, they still offer free shipping to the US if you purchase a certain amount of stamps, or at least that's what they offered when I bought my stamps.

This cute little mushroom was out of the  Woodware Clear Stamps - Woodland Mushroom set, purchased from http://www.stampingscrapping.com which is a great place to purchase scrapping and card making products. I shop there quite often, maybe more than I should...lol! Go check it out, they have a lot of neat stuff there, and some great bargains!

Here's a Halloween card that I made, again, I don't remember where the stamp came from. I guess I need to start labeling them when I remove them from their packaging so I don't keep running across this problem.

The card with the owl, above, and the Happy Haunting card, below,  are from http://www.outlinesrubberstamp.com . This is another one of my favorite places on the web to shop. They have some of the coolest stamps there.

I hope you enjoyed checking out my latest cards, and please let me know what you think by leaving a comment. Thanks for looking...:-)

Springtime Easel card

Just recently I participated in a blinky contest that was hosted by Stamping Scrapping, and I won! My prize was the Woodware stamp set, It's Springtime. I made this card with it. I won't say who or what it was for, because they haven't yet received it. I used Copic markers to color it in, but I didn't take note of which ones I used exactly, sorry. But anyway, here is the card. Let me know what you think.

Birthday Cards

I have been seeing so many beautiful creations made by people using Copic markers for the longest time, and I've been wanting to get into it myself. I purchased a few a while back, but never did much with them, I guess because I didn't have much of a variety of colors, or the right colors for blending So, I decided to take the plunge, and after much research on prices, I purchased the large set of the B Ciao markers. I really love them!

Here are my first projects made with my new Copic markers. My grandsons will be going to a birthday party next weekend, and they will need cards to go with the gifts they are giving, so I decided to make the cards my first actual project. The images of Harold, the dragon, are digi stamps that I purchased from, Digistamp Boutique. Anyone who knows me well, knows that I love dragons, and I just couldn't pass this cute little guy up. The scallops I made with my Cricut, using my Sure Cuts A Lot program, and the patterned paper is from Hot Off The Press. Please let me know what you think of these little guys.

I know, it's been a while since I've posted, a real long time actually, so I thought I'd better get a little up to date on things. I thought I would start with a couple of projects that I made for Christmas gifts for my co-workers. These are made from the Kaisercraft Advent calendar kit. They were a lot of work, but well worth it. I have an extra kit to make for my grand sons, but since I ran out of time, I'll have to make it up this summer maybe, while I'm off, for then to use next year.

For all you people who love to love blog candy, K Andrew, from K Andrew Designs, is having a great one. Here is what you could get!
