Stamp Camp Fun!!

I found a new Challenge on Two Peas that I love and it's the Weekly Stamp Camp. This week's class was taught by Jennifer McGuire who is one of my favorite stampers. It involved using inks, background stamps and heat embossing to create some really neat backgrounds for cards or pages.

This is a link to the Class on the Two Peas site - Stamp Camp - FALL 09 - Week 2. I worked on it yesterday and it was fun. I didn't have any distress inks on hand, so I tried it using an Adirondack Ink Dabber and a set of Color-box Cat Eye inks and various stamps. It worked great and I really liked how it comes out.

Here are some pictures of my stamped images, while they were drying --






And then this morning I used some Cuttlebug Nesties to cut out some shapes and picked my favorite and made these three cards -

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
