There's something about you that makes others thing of naiads, water sprites, or even the Goddess of the Sea. The flow and pulse of water has drawn you in and you understand the depths to which this delight can take you. You can bring thoughts of the water and the wild home, capture them, display them, and above all, allow others to experience them too.

Oh my gosh! I have just been surfing my favorite stamping blogs and I cannot believe the talent that is out there! No one should really have to purchase another stamping magazine again! As I look at my own art I feel incredibly inept. I need to remind myself that is just the hobby that I enjoy, maybe the creativity will come later??? lol!!

Today, I think I'll go to work...I don't really have the gumption, but it is necessary for me to go. I'd rather stay home and stamp! Clay is out on a moose hunt with his friend Dan from Nevada and Shawn. I miss him.
Some post scripts on the cards just posted...the Halloween wheel card is one that I cased that was featured in the latest issue of PaperCrafts. I changed the colors a bit. What a cute card it is! I think I can boast a bit because it took me about 2 hours to make!
The tag card was also cased from the same issue of PaperCrafts. I think this is my favorite stamping/crafting magazine now. They just have some many different styles and formats that are not just stamping, but ideas a person can actually use.
The card at top with the ribbon isn't extraordinarily unique, but it is a good example of the new awesome ribbon that SU! has out now.
Of course the new moose stamp is adorable and that was a fun card to make using some of the new seasonal background paper from SU!
Lastly, I wasn't thrilled with the results of the So Kind card, but I just love this set and wanted to post another card, so there it is!!
What are the kids up to??? Jake is working at Fort Knox on the same crew as his dad. This allows them to share rides to work, which is great. He's currently living by himself with his cat just until the new roommate moves in.
Lauren is still in the Fast Track program with TVC and she is enjoying that and working up at UAF in the Wood Center cafeteria. I hardly every see her. She works out up at the gym at the university about 4 times a week and doing quite well to lose the weight she's gained over the last couple of years. Her plans are to learn snowboarding during Christmas break. You go girl!!
Well, as for me, I have plans to attend a concert on Friday, old rocker that I am. Hope it's good and lots of fun! First concert I've attended in about 4 years, not counting the Lettermen and some local stuff. Saturday is Scrap Day at the Studio and I am doing a tutorial or two. I have taken Friday off of work to prepare and because I NEED it!!
Blessings to all!!

New cards again! I have added some more and I'm so happy that I am stamping and that I am trying to keep up with the blog!! Whew!!

I've been trying to get more stamping done and these are cards and two ATC attempts I've done over the last couple of weeks. I also did a blessings book, but will scan that later. Hope you like my work!!
