I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!
I am working all day today (Thursday) and will be doing the same tomorrow (Christmas Eve) until 4:00pm. We will then head over to my sister's house to have a fabulous dinner, open gifts, talk, laugh and simply enjoy each other! Christmas day will be spent at home with my boys and hubby. A nice quiet day to relax and do NOTHING! Can't wait! It's been a crazy, busy couple of weeks!
I'm missing my mom quite a lot these days and am so grateful to have family and friends, both here at home and all over the world because of this wonderful, shared hobby of ours! I feel very blessed to have met so many amazing, generous, kind and fun people like all of you! Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving such wonderful comments! I appreciate your kindness!
Love and hugs to everyone and Merry, Merry Christmas! :)

New Hero Arts Stamps!
A happy hello!
I've had a Friday and Saturday filled with last minute shopping, wrapping and crafting with some new stamps! I even baked a batch of cookies! If you know me at all, you know that I never bake, and actually don't even like to do it, so that was BIG! And I love what new stamps can do for one's mojo! Especially when they're from my favorite company, Hero Arts!
Here are several cards I've made with the four new stamps I bought on Friday.
I love the Hand Drawn Flower! I have other plans for this stamp, but made this one red and yellow for a friend and co-worker who is in the hospital. She loves this color combo.
And this stamp is so beautiful. I had planned on embossing and coloring the image in a totally different design, but then had the idea of using the gold embossing powder. This Flower Bird Garden stamp speaks for itself and stands on its own quite nicely!
Then there's the Tree Trunks wood stamp. Love this one too! I thought of birch trees right away and made this card first.
Then I wanted to try something real simple and made this one too.
Last, but certainly not least, is the Large Blossom cling stamp. It is a smaller version of the same, larger background stamp, and I know it is going to be a favorite of mine!
I wanted to make something fresh, colorful and spring-like. I'm really missing warm weather. It's been so snowy and cold here this month, and we are suppose to get another snow storm on Monday night! Not sure where we're going to put it all!
That's it for me. It's getting late so I'm headed for bed. Have to work tomorrow. Have a great night and a wonderful Sunday! Thanks for stopping by! :)
