Many Thanks

I made these simple, but beautiful Thank You notes to thank family and friends for their support after a recent death in the family. I had to resist the temptation to add glitter or pearls because I wanted the card to be understated and reflect a hopeful but not glittery mood. I used the stamping off technique to create lighter impressions and the illusion of motion. The corner butterfly was stamped off twice, the middle butterfly stamped off once, and the top butterfly is "full strength"

Christmas Cards Past & Present

Well, I'm finally getting around to posting my Christmas cards made at my stamp camps last year and this year. I am inspired by lots of other stampers, and CASE (Copy And Share Everything- an SU concept to get creative by copying others) a lot!
