Been gone to long!

Hi everyone, I know that I have been gone a long time and I apologize for my absence. I have missed you all. Life just seems to keep getting in the way of stamping. UGH!!!!
Anyway, back to creating.
I made this card for Flourishes "Timeless Tuesday Challenge." The sketch is by Kimberly Crawford, a very talented lady. I just love Flourishes stamp sets. They are so elegant and the gals there are so kind. You'll have to pay them a visit. You can find them at: Flourishes
Here are the details:
Stamps: all stamps are from Flourishes Lilac stamp set
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Always Artichoke and Stampin Up designer paper
Accessories: Copic markers, SU Eyelets, Classic Oval Nestabilities, Rhinestones by Taylored Expressions, Lavender Moon Stain Ribbon by Papertrey Ink, Fiskars Edge punch and Stampin Dimensionals.

Thank you for visiting. Blessings to all.



I made this little plaque for my stamping buddies just because I love them. I made each of them a little different so the two gals who haven't gotten theirs yet will still be surprised. I had so much fun designing this piece not only because it was for my friends but because it had to do with CHOCOLATE! What could be better than that? (tee hee).
Here are the details:
Stamps: Chocolate Delight House- Mouse and I Love Chocolate House-Mouse
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette, GP White, Doodle Bug designer paper
Accessories: Copic Markers, Copic Glitter Pens, Cuttlebug Swiss Dot embossing folder, Sugared Brads, Swarovski Crystal Rhinestones, Stampin Dimensionals, White Satin and Brown and White Polka Dot Satin Ribbon from Paper Trey Ink, I love this store!Ticket Corner punch, Metal Corners form Bonnies Best,( a wonderful place for embellishments). and last but not least Rain Dot Hearts.

I covered the front and back of a piece of firm chipboard with Chocolate Chip card stock and added a little hanger on the back. I used a piece of my hardware hodgepodge for this.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a blessed day.
