Hand Stamped Sentiments – Stars

Hello Stampers! Wow was there some severe weather last night.  My Weather app was going off all night long.  We were under a tornado watch for a while and then several severe thunderstorm warnings.  It was an interesting evening to say the least. Today I have my retirement village ladies.  We are making 4 cards this week.  It is fun to work with them and they are so amazed when they have a finished product. …

My tag swap

Hello Stampers! I can’t believe tomorrow is the last day of Convention.  It has been great but I am ready to be home. One of the swaps I signed up for was an Over the Top Tag swap.  We had to create a tag that was at least 3 1/2 inches wide and 6 inches long (including the ribbon).  When I signed up for this swap I knew I wanted to use The Open Sea…
