Elzy-mania

I'm

I'm sorry. I couldn't help myself. I was cleaning up my craft area and saw some Elzybells stamps. Well, four cards later....

Last minute peek

I've had a crazy week and this weekend will be even crazier, but I wanted to show one last minute sneak peek. The new A Muse outdoor/nature images are just too cute. On this card I used the new birdbath and birdhouse. It's fun to use these new stamps with some of my favorite oldies. Can you guess the old ones?

Elzys Galore

I can't stop using this little chick under the flower. It works great for spring, but when I first saw it I thought of baby cards! It's such a cute way to announce a new arrival.

It's a little hard to see, but I used black flock for the center of the flower and a red glaze pen for the ladybug.

And speaking of Elzybells....woohoo! Check out the ElzybellsNA website! Some of my designs were recently featured and you'll see wonderful creations by the other Elzy designers.

Fond Farewell

On Sunday I taught my last two classes at Rubber Chicken. We had a great time, but it was a little sad also. The Rubber Chicken store will be closing at the end of this month. However, Betsy (second from the right) has some wonderful plans in the works for the future. You won't see the last of Rubber Chicken!

I want to give a special thanks to all my loyal A Muse students. Some of these wonderful ladies are in this picture, but there are others that couldn't be with us. You know who you are. I won't forget you, I love you all, and I look forward to stamping with you in the future!

Sushi Friends

Here's a card from my upcoming class called Clearly A Muse. I'm hopelessly in love with the A Muse clear sets, especially Sushi and Nature. For a different look at these images you have to take a look at Jennie's recent post.

A late peek and an Elzybell

Here's another sneak peek of the new A Muse stamps. The girl on the right is actually a runner. Doesn't she look like she could be playing soccer when you put her with the soccer girl? I'm not a big soccer fan, but this was fun to do. And of course, "roll with it" (from the Sushi clear set) seemed to work.

For the Elzy card I combined two stamps to make it look like the little yellow check was looking at the flower. I just masked off the bee when I inked it. Fun!

Life is Good

Here's a sneak peek at three new A Muse images. The rain is a great new image. There's so many ways you can use it. Check out Elena's version. So cute! And this sentiment...I think I'm going to be using this one a lot! Life is Good!
