And if you want some of these cute stamps you can give her an email. She carries a bunch of Magnolias (and other great stamps like CC Designs) AND she has a great promotion on right now.

Creatively Yours Sketch #31

Good morning. We are enjoying a lovely Chinook here today. It's beautiful. A bit windy, but it's warm.

Today I have Sketch 31 from Creatively Yours. I have so many pictures of flowers from our hike last summer in Kananaskis that I thought this was the perfect time to use them.

I used some Basic Grey (Lime Ricky), American Craft Thickers, Tim Holtz Chipboard, Glimmer Mist, Shimmerz and Savvy'n'Sassy lace.




Well I'm off, I have to volunteer today at the school, that always keeps me busy. Have a happy Tuesday!
