Thinking of those in need.

Just a note to let everyone know about a special for this month. Close To My Heart has designed the stamp set, A True Thank You. CTMH will donate 100% of the profits from sales of this set to the American Red Cross to aid the Oklahoma victims. Purchase this fun set for just $2.95 and help the victims of this horrific natural disaster.

To order the special set, send me an email and you can help too.

It's only available until June 30th.

Have a great summer stamping day!

Bunco with a Scrapbook Twist!

This month we played bunco with a twist. The prizes were the winner's choice of items from the Close To My Heart catalog. Those dice were rolling big time . . . the beginners will tell you that it takes absolutely no skill to play this very fun game. The only issue I have with bunco is I can't roll, talk, and keep score. LOL

I made all attendees a cute card using A Bowwow as a thank you for coming to my house and being the guinea pigs since I've never played Scrapbook Bunco. LOL As far as I know, it came off without a hitch. The only problem the winners have (everyone won something) is choosing something out of the Close To My Heart idea book. So many things to choose from -- it's not easy.

Hope you are all enjoying the warm weather . . . make sure you take your camera with you so you can scrapbook all the fun summertime activities.

Your scrapbooking friend,
Elaine

I love the Stamp of the Month

This month's whimsical Stamp of the Month, A Flowering Bunch, is so much fun! I know I say that every month but seriously, this one is going to get lots of use. The flowers are so much fun . . . I just love the detailing in the flowers and leaves.


Here's a sample I made a few days ago:
 I don't know why my camera is not taking better pictures. This one is too dark and the ones I took yesterday were all washed out. I guess I need to get the manual out and change some settings. LOL
At least you get the idea . . . I made some other samples but I'll get my camera figured out first. :-)

Have a happy stamping day!
