Did I say addicted to stamps ???


This truly was a milestone for me (electronically handicapped as I am )-- The snowman tag with poms -- is from one of my graphic sets -- then I learned how to

paste it into my scrappin program onto a tag template I had made and scanned , then added punched snowflakes and Stickles -luv that stuff -- Whew - almost thought would need another set of hands or a foot maybe - LOL!!! As you can see my pictures get out of sequence with my words - still working on this blog thing - BUt need more time to create !!! One more and we are done ! He got left out in the cold -- H A ! HA - sorry those words just jumped upon the page . I am also addicted to punches -- will explore that one day -- still need to show my other 12 Day creatioons -- Soon maybe .

Love Gingerbread men also -- have bought one of those Crafty Secrets houses -- so cute - will have to put a gingerman somewhere -hope I have the chance to



make it before Christmas -The card on the left was purchased in Beaufort -- never seen another anywhere . they had the sample stamped several times on a mini milk carton - I have the template somewhere for it , very cute - filled with candies -then holes punched and ribbon added .



I love tags , Can you tell ??? These while almost one color and simple , delight me - I started keeping some -, because after making so many could not remember all of them . These seems a little out of focus , hmm not sure , maybe my $i.oo glasses need upgrading HA HA !!



The stamping became an addiction , each stamp cuter than the rest. Even found the darling Christmas stamp in Beaufort S>C> near Charleston ,while on vacation , who new that in this very small townof lovely century old homes , such a lovely stamp place existed . Been back once since -hmmm wonder if they are online now ??

















Isn't this stamp beautiful - yes this is a stamped image - too beautiful . The wonderful shop that carried the most wonderful stamps and ideas no longer exists -many still miss the shop Angel Art






They carried many types , and were great people . Several years ago this was what I used as a Christmas card to my closest friends . I just used a gold mat on the picture and wording . According to each friends home color scheme, I stamped the card that color -the blue my daughter has is especially lovely . A beautiful cobalt color -- I put each in a beautiful frame






and gave it early in the Christmas season as my Christmas card , most still have it on display .






I made this one for myself --never made it into a frame . The snowmen tags are simple ,





but I love them .
