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

Unopened Mail And My Grocery List

We arrived back from our Las Vegas trip last night so the only thing on my Kitchen Counter is unopened mail and my grocery list.  I have looked up the recipes for most the great food we ate (or wish we ate) in Las Vegas including Bacon Waffles and Chicken and Waffles - so my counter top should look awesome tomorrow (or as soon as I get a waffle maker).  We had lots of fun in Las Vegas but not as much as Crystal and Joey.  If we were still 21 we would have had a blast!  No luck with gambling - but I only gained 1 pound which is a miracle!

Christmas Mice

Hello Crafty Friends, Today, I am playing in some fun challenges with this cute card: The current House-Mouse &Friends Monday Challenge HMFMC #461 is Anything Goes with an optional theme of Pastels. I have some pastel paper in my layers. This card was made with ornaments from a SU! set, a cut up sentiment from RedLead Paperworks, and three mice I cut out of the Spellbinders Sew Sweet stamp set. The background was inspired by Jeanne Streiff's MIX challenge on Splitcoaststampers.com last Friday where she asked us to make a background using a die cut as a stencil.

T is For 10 Years of T-Day, Too much food, and The Art (Always the Art)

Hello Friends. Most of today's post is about celebrating 10 years of Elizabeth hosting T-day parties on her blog .  If you have visited me before, you know that I regularily participate in T-day where we all post something about a drink of any type (the drink can be anything including water and the post can be a real drink, words, movies, art, etc.) on Tuesday (or Monday lol) and link it to Elizabeth's T-day blog post for the week.   This year Elizabeth is asking us to post several things in celebration of the big anniversary.   #1.   Post a picture of something that makes the number 10. I used 10 art supplies that were near me.  I am starting to make more Christmas cards so these were right at hand.  #2.   Post our regular T-day picture/post.  My drink picture today is a lunch we had in Tybee Island last week during our Georgia trip.  We ate at Pier 16 .  Great food and service. It was our favorite meal during the trip. ...
