Girl Power!
Friday, September 3, 2021
Sending September Smiles your way! I've been using lots of my girly stamps, and I started a new job, so Girl Power it is!
I see many starting Fall and Christmas creations already, but when you live in the desert and it's still hotter than heck, I'm just not there yet. We've got a holiday happening this month too, and the start of holidays for every month now until the end of the year. That sounds so crazy to me, but I am truly looking forward to all of it, and I hope you are too!
Here we go...
So in July I posted a card I made with this same layout, and had said at the time that I had made a handful of them, and so this is another. There just isn't enough focus on telling each other, and especially the young women coming up in the business world today, how amazing they are. We can all use a little boost and I love giving cards like this and I hope you do too. The stamp set is from Unity Stamps, she's one of the Angie Girls and is called Poppy Girl. I did add a face to her, that doesn't come with the set.
Inside message:
Doing what you like is Freedom
Liking what you do is happiness
I just started a new job, and in my head I was hoping I looked like this on my first day...haha, but holy cow I was a bundle of nerves. It's been 10 years, yes a decade, since I even interviewed anywhere else, and didn't think I would, but life leads you in different directions sometimes. I just finished my first week, and guess what....you can teach an old dog new tricks and I'm lovin' it!
This is a stamp from Hampton Art, and is one of those Peachy Cheap deals where I got I think 6 sets of stamps for a smokin' deal. Well, the quality is not amazing, but I do think this gal certainly is.
Inside message:
Brave & Beautiful
Well it just wouldn't be right if I had a Girl Power theme without throwing in a glass of wine, right?! This is another Unity Stamps/Angie Girl and it is called Miranda Girl, and again I added a face to her that is not included. I found this pad of paper at Joann's and had to have it. I don't buy a lot of 12 x 12 paper pads, but this one had me and it's by Park Lane and it's called Wonder Seeker.
Inside message:
...and wine
Cheers to September and I hope for all kinds of positive things for you and yours. Stay safe, take care, and whatever you create, as always, is welcome here :)

Fruit Loops ~
Sunday, August 1, 2021
Hello and Happy August! The theme I chose for this month is about FRUIT, and I am drawn to any type of fruit paper or stamp for that matter, and have a separate container just for them. I hope I'm not the only one, but it's hard for me to even use some of the papers I have they are just so cute, and I know you can relate to that. I guess that's part of being a part of this crazy craft we do! I am seeing a lot of lemons lately, which is so perfect right now for Summer :)
This stamp came to me in a grab bag from Unity Stamps, which can be so fun. They don't have them all the time, but when they do they go fast. It's like a present to yourself, and we all deserve that sometimes. It's not a single stamp, but was part of one of the monthly kits and that's really what the grab bags are about, mostly. At first when I saw it, I called them "fancy lemons" haha, wasn't sure it was my style and also wasn't sure I'd use it, but once I colored it, I was really happy with them. When life gives you lemons...
Inside message - You bring out the Zest in me.
I love watermelon in the Summer and pretty drinks, so this digital image from Graciellie Designs called Happiness had me at gorgeous! Be sure to check out all of her art, because she's amazing. If digitals aren't your thing, she does sell rubber stamps at Unity too. The heart has lots of white glitter on it, so don't think I just forgot to color it :)
Inside message...Sending Smiles and Happy Vibes.
Inside message...Nobody Sweeter (also the name of this set).
Well, I hope your August is fabulous and will be full of some fun things and maybe even some new and happy surprises. Stay cool, stay safe, and I can't wait to see your fruity and fun creations. Whatever you have is, as always, welcome here :)
