And so I begin




For some strange and bizarre reason, several friends have requested that I start a blog. And so, I begin an adventure into "Blog Land".






With so many stamping blogs out there already, and so many TALENTED stampers, I am less than confident about what I can add but if nothing else, I will learn a new skill set setting up the blog.






And who knows? I might have fun. After all I can get on my stamping soapbox when the mood strikes. And I can share what I learn. And I can show off what I make. And... well, maybe this isn't such a strange idea.






This bear is an "award winner". It is one of two cards I made for a contest for VC_Rocks. The competition was tough but somehow I sneaked in the win. But I am proud of him - we were supposed to show the versatility of a stampset and most stampers don't put this baby on the beach. His sunglasses are from the Heart to Heart punch. Fun, huh?

    Welcome to the world of blogging (not that I do it myself). I love to read blogs of people I know and keep up with them.
