It is always nice to receive a magazine that you don't subscribe to and find out the reason you got it is because your card is in it. This is March issue of Scrap & Stamp Arts and I have a card published. I submitted it some time ago. It is one of the cards that I made when I first started submitting.I love surprises.
***My buddy received the kit I put together and she loved it. Thanks, Rae, I am glad you like it.
My sister, Julia, is 23 today. Happy Birthday sis!!! I love you.
We are doing a kit swap over at CMK . I sent out my kit today and I hope my buddy likes it. This was harder than I thought. I was at the store for one hour trying to put all this together.

Here are couple more layouts I did for Inspire Me Card Kits using 3 Bugs in a Rug Smitten Collection.
Happy Valentine's Day, I hope your day is filled with love. I altered these letters with goodies from Inspire Me Card Kits February kit featuring 3 Bugs in a Rug. I picked up the letters at a Rubber Stamp convention last month. I painted the letters first and then adhered paper with Mod Podge. I use a paint brush to apply just enough Mod Podge to the letter. I will post more of my DT work tomorrow.
These Target mailboxes have been a hit everywhere. I fist saw a post at splitcoaststampers that they were at the $1 spot so I went and bought two. One red and one white. I decorated only the white one. I wish I had a before picture. These were easy to make. I love pink and red together. The paper here is Heidi Grace, Prima flowers, Heidi Swapp love stamp, and little heart stickers are from Target.
This is another Target $1 find. Magnetic photo frame that I altered. The paper is Diecuts With A View that I stemped with these cool Fiskars Romance stamps I found at JoAnns and Technique Tuesday stamps. The flower is cut out from Dream Street patterned paper. The photo is from out wedding day.
Guess where I was last week??? Yes, Michael's $1.00 bin. Found lots of goodies in there. Missed most of the Valentine's Day stamps, but these are awesome. All I have to do now is use them.
Here is a card I made yesterday using one of the above stamps. This is new (to me) Bazzill Bling cardstock I received in my "goodie" box from Cards last week. I love it.
This magazine is awesome, especially when it comes in a box with goodies. This February issue is filled with lots of eye candy, just in time for Valentine's Day. I love looking through and seeing all the familiar names.
This month I had a card featured in this magazine. I love red and blue color combination. Here I stamped hearts on cardstock and cut them out. Some are adhered to card using foam adhesive for more dimension. "love" is in my own handwriting.
Well, it was earlier. Beautiful while it lasted, and very cold. What a way to start the month of February. I don't like the cold weather, can't wait for spring to arrive.
Here is a card I made that reminds me of hot days of summer. I used Stampin' Up cardstock, Frances Meyer patterned paper. The cute border stamp is from DeNami Design. I descovered them last month at a stamp show. Stay warm.
