Hello Everyone – I know I have been MIA.  My granddaughters are staying with me for a while, so my computer time has been limited.  I will try to sneek in once in a while.  I had my Open House and I think everyone had fun drooling over the new catalog.  We played games and had some good ole' fashion Stampin Up fun.  Today I tried my hand at some collage.  I love the look, but I just haven't mastered it yet.  I used the new stamp set  Artistic Etchings #120573.  My cardbased is one of the new In-Colors Concord Crush #19792.  I will be so happy when I get  my order tomorrow,  It is so difficult when you don't have all the coordinating materials.  It really does make a difference, friends, when you have all the coordinating papers and embellishments.  That's what makes Stampin' Up so great.  My designer paper is Newsprint #117166.  I'm so looking forward to using this paper again.  For the aging process I used More Mustard#103162, Concord Crush #119785  and Cherry Cobbler #119669 inks. Cool Tools are the Small and Large Oval Punches #119855/119863, the 1 3/4" Circle Punch #119850 and the 2" Scallop Punch (Non SU).  This punch is made by the same people that make our punches EK Success.  For embellishments I used the Filgree Flower set #112577 and a Red Circle Rhinestone Brad #109110.

Thanks for stopping by today I love sharing my cards with you.  If you know someone who is interested in stamping please pass my blog address along, I am always looking for new faces to introduce to this wonderful world of stamping fun.  The girls are pacing so I have to run, today is a big day.  My daugher turns 39 today Happy birthday Sherry and the girls want to bake a cake, go swimming, go shopping for candles and who knows what else we'll do today.  So much fun!!!!!!  Take Care everyone.  Toodles
