Sneaks Last Day
















This is the last day of sneaks for Clear Dollar Stamps Feb. Releases.... Today is probably my most favorite day. Or very close to my favorite. hee hee Make sure you check them out tomorrow they are all for sale here. The Charlie with the football background well that was made for me. I was consoling myself after the Colts loss in the playoffs. I was not very happy that day rather sad. :0(
I love this Christian sympathy set. It also goes well with the other new Charlie stamp set called Charlie Praying. I don't have any of those samples posted yet because I have been giving the cards away before I take a picture of them. It is such a sweet set though. I will work on getting something posted this weekend. Hope you have enjoyed the new releases. Now start filling your cart tomorrow morning! Make sure to check back on Mon Feb 2nd for some exciting news!
Have a wonderful weekend!

MMM Piercing Friendship



I pulled out one of my first house mouse stamps for this challenge. This guy just makes me smile he is so cute and happy as you can see. This weeks House Mouse and friends challenge found here is to use piercing in your card. I as you can see pierced a border around mine. I do a lot of piercing it just adds a small touch that doesn't cost a lot. I have this panel up on dimensionals.

Gift set for Sister




This is yes another little gift set that I made. I can't help it when I start these little sets I keep making them for awhile. They are wonderful to have on hand. But this set is going to my little sister for her birthday along with something else. I took a picture of the cards up close, and then one with a little box I made to hold them all in. These cards are 4x6in size.
This set is all from the Jan New Release of Our Daily Bread designs set called Lift Up our Hands. I stamped the image off and then huffed on it to make it a little darker. I used the sentiment and verse in each card. She is going to love this, she like my Grandma's one that I made so much so I wanted to make her a set.
These sets can be found here to purchase. There is a new look to the store also, so check it out. And here for other samples the Design team have made also. Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day!

MMM ATC Fun


Happy Monday! House Mouse and Friends first challenge for the new year is ATC. Artist Trading Cards... Now I have only done one of these before. I had the hardest time taking this picture though. I finally had to set it on the floor to take it. EEK... Their is a scored line above the scallop edge but you can't see that in the picture. The foil wrapper actually sparkles but its hard to see that. I used some silver foil paper behind the white also.
Hope you get to play along with us. Make sure to leave a link or put twnhpy on SCS for me to find your creation.
