I made this for a girlfriend's birthday

Image
I think I saw it in a magazine.  I am terrible at giving credit where credit is due.  Sorry about that. Anyway, I made this card for my girlfriend's birthday.  I didn't even try to get the card into an envelope.   So, I also made this little clothes pin to attach it to the gift bag.  Lots of PTI and MFT dies on this one.  Thanks for visiting. See you soon, Ang

Yes, I am super busy.  Yes, I have neglected my blog.  I have been creating tons though.   It came down to spending time creating or updating my blog and creating won.   Kicked ass, actually, wasn't even a close fight.   This means, tho, that I have a lot to share, hopefully I can keep it up. Here is my latest creation: This is for the MFT weekly Wednesday Stamp Club: Here is a little detail: I finally broke down and bought the MFT Fishtail Flag STAX dies.  Love them!  A little PTI on there too.  I made this for a friend that recently had her second hip replaced.  She has been in so much pain for so long and she really is Fabulous.  I can't wait to see her up and running again soon! Here's to you Linda! Thanks for visiting. See you soon (hopefully), Ang

This week I rec'd my new PTI goodies which included the Simply Jane stamps, dies and papers. OMG, it is all so scrumptious.    The paper is stunning and the quality is amazing, it is very heavy weight.   And it looks like a book.  Sheer perfection. I am a fairly new fan of Jane Austen novels.  When the movie, Sense and Sensibilty, (the one written by Emma Thompson), came out I was entranced.  I decided to read the novel.  Over the next few years I have seen every movie version made of her novels and read all of them, except Northahnger Abbey.  I have read a couple of them multiple times.  Not sure what it is about Norhthanger Abbey, but something about the story creeps me out and I have avoided it.  I know I will have to read it eventually but I have been putting it off.  Anyway, I have become a huge Jane Austern fan and admirer.   Everytime I read one of her novels I like them more and more.  I ...
