Flashback Friday on Sunday Night

My blogging buddy Vicki has a Flashback Friday challenge. Vicki is trying to encourage herself and others to use their OLD stamps in new ways. The current challenge is to use an old Valentine image. You need to check out Vicki's cards and her challenge HERE. I dug out an old Valentine's stamp and here is my card:


This old set has several fun images, but this one is my favorite. The set is from SU! circa 2006.

Fun challenge Vicki!

Here are a few more cards I made this weekend for various challenges on SCS:

    Busy weekend for you and a very creative one. I remember that SU set and I loved it. I did the same thing yesterday, I dug way into the back of the closet and took out older stamps. I think it is nice to love them and ink them up again. Your first card is darling and I adore the others. Each one beautiful. Enjoy your day.

    you've done a great job "reinventing" the use of your older stamps - I am so enjoying wandering through my collection and slowly using all those pretties which have been neglected for far too long! What truly amazes me when visiting your blog is that I never know what to expect - always something "old, yet new", always something different (but not), and such a wide array of techniques and styles! You are a gifted artist! hugs, de

    The designer will ask you a few questions. Make sure you ask your own questions too.
    Ask for pictures of Kitchen counters that he has done before.
    Do not accept kitchen manufacturers Kitchen counters. If the designer cannot give examples of Kitchen counters then move on.
    It would be best if the designer has done projects similar to your Gold Coat Kitchen

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

A Bit of Tea, Horses, and a Cowboy

 I love when my children follow in my footsteps and beyond (only the cool footsteps, of course).   My daughter, Allie, has developed a love of tea.  She sent me this picture over the weekend of her having tea in her newly remodelled bedroom.   She was drinking Breakfast in Paris tea in one of her favorite thrift store mugs.  This is my ticket to the T-day gathering over at Elizabeth's blog .  To join us, all you have to do is have a drink related post (can be any type of drink).   The neighborhood horses have been gathering in our backyard for some reason. Our horse refuses to come up near our house because the lady who owns all these horses gives her much better treats.  They all jump the fences and visit everyone.  The mule in the picture is actually named after me because I named one of cows after the neighbor (he paid me back - lol). I gave them apples when they came on Sunday, and they have come back every day since - lol....
