Embellished

Happy Thursday everyone!!! My mom and I desided to see if the ribbon store had anything new in on lunch break yesterday! WOW…look what I got!! They had gotten a new shipment yesterday, so I bought them out! Everything is listed in my store!

I added a new “Ric Rack and Other” Ribbon category, “stitched ribbon” category AND there’s a few new polka dots too! WOW….I feel like I won the jackpot! lol!!!

Thank you all so much for your compliments on my flower! I really don’t have any tricks or anything though! They get good sunlight. Where they are they get it alot in the morning until about 2 or so in the afternoon. My other hyacinths don’t get as big..strange! lol! Thanks for letting me know about the Yankee candles too! WAHOO! I am on a mission to find them now!

Here is a card I made for the Sketch Challenge on Splitcoaststampers.com yesterday! Hope your all having a great day!

Good Morning!! Looks like another beautiful day here! We got a little rain today but it will help me get the weeds out of my garden! I took this picture yesterday of my hyacinth’s. I only wish you could all SMELL them…I wish they made a candle like that, I’d burn it all the time! I will hopefully post a card a little later on today! Have a great morning!!

It’s time again!! My good friend Julia Stainton and I did this a few weeks ago and have decided to do it on a semi regular basis! Both of us using the same paper and stamps to see how different (or alike) they end up being! This week we used the New Prima Cardstock Lucid and the Stampin’ Up! Set Sassy Stems! You can view Julia’s here! I just love the colors in this cardstock. It was tricky to match the red though. For the flower I actually did it lightly in Real Rust first, then added a little Real Red..I think it ended up matching pretty good! There are stickles on the image too, but they never show up in pictures! Thanks so much for looking!!

Supplies:

Stamps: Sassy Stems, French Flair and It’s Your Birthday

Ink: Brown Stazon, Real Red, Real Rust, Barely Banana, Certainly Celery and Bashful Blue

Paper: Lucid Collection (Prima) Whisper White and Chocolate Chip

Hello, hope you all had a great weekend!! We sure did! We were in Las Vegas! It was a blast! We stayed with my sister and her husband, it was so nice to see them!

They had SO MANY stamps there!!! You’ll never believe what I got….a Willie Nelson stamp!!! WOW…talk about one happy girl! LOL!

Since I haven’t been home to stamp and have lots of catching up to do, I thought it would be fun to share some of my Hampton Art samples with you!! I hope you enjoy!
