Window Frame Card

I saw this technique on Splicoaststampers by Chat. Her card is beautiful. She has a tutorial posted on her blog here: Window Frame Tutorial

I used a little larger opening than her tutorial and I think it looks okay.

Paper: Basic Gray, SU old olive, watercolor paper

Stamps: SU Natural Beauty

Rainy Days

I'm celebrating the rain here in Georgia after the severe drought we've been having. This is an ancient Stampin' Up! set that I couldn't part with because it's so cute.

All Dressed Up

Dusting off my Penny Black Stamps. I was off work today and decided to mess around with some of my stamps I haven't used in years. Not sure if I like this or not but I felt I had to do something creative. :)

Penny Black Stamp

I just love this little guy. I always need boys cards on hand so thought I'd make this today. I used prismacolors and gamsol to color.

I've gotten on a cupcake thing lately. I think I've had too much time to surf the net and get hungry at work waiting for my lunchbreak. Plus, I want to make gourmet cupcakes when I open my deli. I found this recipe whilst surfing arouond and made them last night. They are Delish! (as Rachel Ray says). I overfilled the tins, though so they weren't very pretty. The frosting is yummy but you have to follow the recipe exactly for it to be fluffy. Here's the link: http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_32146,00.html

Here's a book I just ordered and can't wait to get it. Their site is:
