Welcome...

So glad you chose to stop by!

I hope to use this blog to share some of my handmade cards as well as some of my scrapbook pages and maybe a few pics here and there that may or may not make it to a scrapbook page.

Scrapping for me is simply a fun hobby that I don't do often enough. More often than not, I'm a collector of all things scrap... i.e. tools, paper, embellishments...

Now to become motivated... Maybe this blog is just the way to do it...

Enjoy and come back SOON!

For Every Blessing...

I guess with this card, I’m exercising my right to change my mind. I was kinda opposed to "physically" stamping anything. No ink pads for me thank you… My computer will do nicely. Then I started to take notice of the Papertrey Ink background stamps. I can officially say that I’ve had a change of heart. I love their background stamps and have recently purchased a few sets. The 3 sets of borders at the bottom of the card are from the PTI’s Retro and Polka Dots Basics II background stamps. I started off with a small section, but I’m going to work my way to using the stamps to make my own patterned paper. I love how the various styles can be used interchangeably to make unique designs. I'll get there, but for now, baby steps....

The card is brown with teal accents; however, in the photo, the base looks black… The words for the sentiment were taken from one of my favorite gospel songs titled “For This I Give You Praise”.

Until next time, enjoy…
