Exciting News!

I have been invited to be a Guest Designer next month for the Clean and Simple challenges on The Outlawz Challenges website. I feel very honored to have been chosen and I am excited about doing it. So, every Monday morning in March you will be seeing my work with the Design Team. Hooray!

Here is the address to the site:  outlawzchallenges.ning.com  (Sorry, I don't know how to make it be a link.) They have a different challenge and design team for each day of the week. It's a big group of players so there is lots of inspiration there. They come up with some fun ideas and they cover a lot of styles of card making. What are you waiting for?....Go visit!

Great Technique

I saw this technique on Stamp TV last week. Today I watched the video again and gave it a try. I freakin' LOVE it!!!!! It is a really cool, different look. Some stamps are better than others for this technique so it will take some experimenting to find the best ones. The background paper is a Toned Gray sketchbook from Hobby Lobby. The only other thing you need is a few colored pencils and a brave attitude.
   
                                             

Happy Valentine's Day!

I went all out to make a special dinner for Valentine's Day. I spent several hours at the stove but boy, it was worth it!

I made Gumbo with chicken, Andouille and shrimp, sourdough oatmeal rolls and for dessert, individual cherry gallettes.  My sweetie provided flowers for the table. Our daughter joined us for our yummy dinner and we had a great time.
