Snowflake Joy
I stamped Joy in Cocoa ink on another piece of pattern paper from the same paper pack. You can't really tell from the picture, but the snowflake that's the main image is outlined with a glitter gel pen. Of course the snowflake needed a little bling with a little jewel.
I used the stamp set Festive Thoughts for the inside message. Pretty straightforward card and very easy to make. Thanks for stopping by :0)

I Think I'm Back
Oh my goodness! How did so much time get away from me? I did have several things hit me all at once. School started back up which means I'm back to work and we did a garage sale on top of that. Son #1 moved out to college leaving an empty room. My office used to be in a room until we adopted two kids so I moved to our bedroom closet. So then it was time for the big shuffle. We moved kids to Son #1's room and office stuff back to where it goes all about the time I started back to work. My office still isn't quite organized, but I'm close and I hope to be in full swing stamping again very shortly.
In the meantime, here's a very simple layout I did for a party. The only stamp set I used was the July Word Puzzle. I created a background stamp by loading several words onto one block. Then after stamping the background in Cranberry I went back with Moonstruck and did the little star. The stripe paper is from the Blue Ribbon paper pack. Because this was for a party and I don't charge for the layout I had to keep the cost down. This is all paper with no bling. I would probably have added some dimensionals to the stars and maybe some ribbon, but I like it this way too. Be sure to click on the picture if you want to get a better look.
Anyway, there you have it. Hopefully I'll be posting more often, now that things are getting organized again.
I think somewhere along the line I received some blog awards that I need to pass on to others so I'll be working on that.

Happy Everything!
The flowers and sentiment are from the With Love set which is the June stamp of the month. I embossed them with white on white cardstock and then sponged in the color with sponge daubers. Add brads for the centers and they were ready to go..."Easy peasy lemon squeezy!" Do you know that quote? The first person to tell me what movie that it's from will receive this card in the mail!
My sistah Stacy is always giving me such a hard time about me saving every scrap of paper. This card just goes to show her that no piece is too small! I pulled them from my scrap drawer. To make it look like stitching I pierced holes and then connected the dots with a white gel pen...every stamper needs one!
Well, I still have to get ready to go so I'm signing off. Don't forget to post guesses for the quote!
