Few new cards

using Michael Strong's stamps! I love his stamps. I have 4 more coming, from Jr. and Preston for Christmas, but they were out of stock so are late arriving.

New Idea!

I decided instead of making calendar cards to use frames and then people can hang them on the wall or sit them on their desk. Here is a couple of pictures of those.

More cards

Last night I finished Calendar Card #3, made a Chistmas Card and also a Happy New Year Card. The Happy New Year card is a challenge for Michael Strong's group. You had to use something that you would have thrown in garbage. The 2 gold twist ties are part of those things I used. Then my daughter had received a bath set last year for Christmas and she took the stuff out of the box and gave me the box. I took the bead and gold elastic that was used to keep the box shut, and used them on this card!

New Michael Strong rubber stamps

With some of my mom's Christmas money I ordered 2 more of Michael Strong's stamps, and love them! I hope eventually to get all of them!!!
Anyhow, a lady on one of my groups, made cards with small calendars on them, and I got the idea to try some. I have made 2. At the end of each money, the person can tear off that month, and have a small desk calendar for the whole year. I think it is a great gift idea.

Need winter background

Ok, bear with me, I am trying to get winter backgrounds on my blogs and something is wrong. Maybe I will try again tomorrow.

Missie gave me one of the stamps she bought for me, the vase! Here are a couple of cards I made with the vase or part of the vase.
