Hello Out There

Hi everyone!
My daughter is on the swim team this year and very close to qualifying for state. With that in mind the little energy I have is being devoted to her and being her chauffeur. The building is coming along very nice and the blog for Stamper's Paradise will be updated next. Thanks so much for your patience while I focus on my Miss Isabelle.
Inky Hugs to everyone!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Here's hoping everyone had a Happy, Healthy, Holiday with safe travels. Winter is here and the snow is flying so there will be alot more Mid western Stampers back on the computers now. Stampers Paradise should be picking up steam too, because every stamper in Wisconsin needs a day at the beach from time to time. I just stocked up on some Great New Sets from Our Daily Bread Designs LOVE THEM! Got some wonderful deals to pass on to you too. Until next time,
Happy Stamping!

Fall

Hi Everyone!
Fall is here so all of Wisconsin is starting to get read for another long winter of stamping and scrapbooking. The CURDS have been having a blast! We went to Jackson, then Hartford and now planning the yearly trip to Freemont to stay at the cabin. The swaps were wonderful this year with soooo many new and creative ideas! I can't wait until we all do it again next year!

The latest news!

The Friendship Shoebox Swap was great. I let everyone know that next year it will be held at "Stamper's Paradise". Some of the ladies even stopped by to see what we had done already. Here is a link so you can check it out and follow the progress for yourself. Hope everyone else is as excited about it as me. Thanks for stopping by!

Barb's Fabulous Flowers

Here are 2 cards that I did for a Flower Swap. The only rule was to use a stamped image of a flower. With the Friendship Swap right around the corner those items will most likely be the next ones posted. Hope you like these!

Happy Easter

This is the card I mailed to my Secret Stamping Sister today. She doesn't know about my blog so the secret is still safe :D Plus I wanted to wish everyone a HAPPY EASTER! Spring Break starts tomorrow for Isabelle so there won't be any posts until she goes back to school on April 7. Enjoy this wonderful weather! Have a wonderful Easter filled with love and loved ones.

Here is another card using the Gina K set The Journey. I was experimenting with some new spellbinders and decided they looked nice behind the bigger shapes too. This month has really been touch and go but recovery is still moving forward... so with that the quote for today is "Any progress is still progress" . Keep a positive attitude and have a happy weekend.
