the "pineapple express" has been blowing thru northern California ALL day - it's SO windy tonight that I haven't even attempted to try to go to sleep . . . so I'm upstairs stamping a few more valentines . . .
I chose this layout sketch . . .
and Betsy's color combination . . .
to create a masculine valentine for my favorite Joes in little rhodie :)
stamps: papertrey ink, close to my heart
papers: papertrey ink, echo park, stampin' up
dies: papertrey ink, sizzix
embellishments: baker's twine - the twinery; mini staples - stampin' up
growing up, I had dreams of becoming an architect (until I realized that math was NOT my thing) . . . I guess that's why I love this little stamp set from Close to my Heart . . .
stamps: close to my heart, papertrey ink
papers: papertrey ink, watercolor paper
embellishments: thick baker's twine - stampin' up; sequins - avery elle
well . . . we moved, we're settled, I have a fabulous space for stamping and scrapbooking, but it's been difficult to find blocks of time to do what I so enjoy
. . . I wanted to send out some "we've moved" announcements in the fall, but didn't get to them, so I combined them with Christmas cards. Close to my Heart, Papertrey Ink & Stampin' Up made a great combination for my little city scene - I was delighted that they came together so quickly . . .
