Stitched Bow Christmas Card

Hello & TGIF everyone! I wanted to do another Christmas card for the current Color Hues Challenge #91 featuring Red & Green. My stash of cards is getting bigger but I still can use more! Here's my card:

Supplies: Paper - Stampin Up Cherry Cobbler;

Paper Studio A2 card; Spellbinders Betterpress Porcelain

Dies - Spellbinders Stitched All Wrapped Up (DOMST-Jul24)

Letterpress w/die - Spellbinders Betterpress Merry & Bright Sentiment Strips

Other - DMC floss #347 

Spellbinders Betterpress Leaf ink

I die cut all the bow pieces, most twice and some three times. The stitching dies are separate from the outlines so you could use the bow without stitching. I used them on the appropriate pieces, stitched with DMC floss (3 strands), then backed with an outline piece. Not sure if Spellbinders gives this as a tip but I find it protects the stitching. It also gives a smooth backing to adhere to the card. The extra bow loops and tail pieces were added for dimension - here's a view of this:

I think the dimension adds a lot. This view better shows the bow's deep red than the overhead photo. The green looks more minty here but it is a deeper green in real life. I debated stamping some text on the card base but decided to leave it plain; the bow is the star here! Stitching while watching television is very relaxing; I did the bow last night watching reality tv. Assembled the bow on the card this morning and added a Betterpressed sentiment from the stash. Done!

I was excited to get to this stitching die set so soon after the July Spellbinders box arrived; usually I'm much slower!! I'll add my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge since the dies got first play today.

Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!

Winter Park Scene

Happy Wednesday everyone! 

I'm back with more Hero Arts 2024 Holiday Shopbox products that I picked up at my favorite local store on Monday (will be available at Hero Arts online on 8/22). I shared a card using a new peeking die set yesterday; today I have a park scene:

Supplies: Paper - Hero Arts Bermuda; many scraps;

Paper Studio glitter; Lawn Fawn All the Dots;

Spellbinders Betterpress Porcelain

Dies - Hero Arts Snowy Street Lamp;

Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders;

Memory Box Pine Tree Grove;

A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set

Press Plate with die - Spellbinders Betterpress Merry & Bright Sentiment Strips

Other - Copic Markers; Betterpress Black ink

Die cut the lamp 3 times from black & stacked for dimension. Next, I die cut the candle twice - from scraps of gold and yellow; trimmed off the yellow flame & added to the gold candle. Die cut the wreath, bow (twice) and snowy details. Added to the lamp.

Die cut a LF patterned paper with a stitched rectangle & added to an A2 card. Die cut a glittery LF stitched hill & then the snowy banks from the HA set. Die cut them with the stitched rectangle so the edges matched & added to the card. Die cut the pine grove from Bermuda and glitter card stocks & assembled. Die cut the bench from a shimmery silver scrap & the birds from a red scrap. Added shading & details with Copics. Arranged the scene atop the cards and adhered. Added a pressed sentiment from the bits box - done!

I have other street lamp sets from other brands. I especially liked this new Hero Arts set for the extra scene elements it included. I could've left the trio of pines out and still had a nice scene just using this set.

Since my street lamp set got first play today, I'll send my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64. Will also add to Merry Little Christmas Challenge #57 where Anything Goes and to Tic Tac Toe Challenge #252 where my friend Betty has set the board. Once again I've used the center vertical column - Die Cuts/Free/Any Sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!!

Peeking Winter Bear

Hello & welcome! I wanted to play along with Darnell & her IDEAS program (see her beautiful inspiration HERE). This week A=Anything Goes and I wanted to do a Christmas card to build the stash. But what products to use??

Hero Arts just announced their 2024 Holiday Shopbox and I saw that my favorite local store participated this year! I popped over yesterday and picked up some new products not available yet, except at a Shopbox store. I knew right away that I'd use Peeking Winter Bear first - so cute!!

Supplies: Paper - Spellbinders A2 card;

Neenah Classic Crest Solar white;

Sunny Studio Holiday Cheer; scraps

Dies - Hero Arts Peeking Winter Bear;

Lawn Fawn Winter Wonderland Window;

Waffle Flower Christmas Banners

Other - Copic Markers

Die cut the bear 3 times from white & stacked for dimension. Next, I die cut the face bits from scraps of grey and black; trimmed & added to the bear. Did some shading with Copics. Die cut the accessories from a scrap of red & added to the bear. Adhered patterned papers to an A2 card, then added the bear. Die cut the sentiment from a scrap of black & adhered to the card. It looked a bit bare so I found some snowflakes in the bits box, plus die cut some more. Added them around the card and one to the bear's hat - done!

Since my bear got first play today, I'll send my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64. Will also add to Merry Little Christmas Challenge #57 where Anything Goes.

Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!!

Flamingo Anniversary

Happy Monday everyone! Gloomy day yesterday so I stayed inside and worked on a card for a couple of challenges. Here's my card:

Supplies: Paper - Park Lane gold A2 card; Poptone kraft; 

many scraps; Paper Studio pastel; BoBunny Double Dotted

Dies - Spellbinders Grand Tropical Flamingos (DOML-May24);

A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set

Hero Arts Beach Frame

Press Plates w/dies - Spellbinders You Are Everything Sentiments

Other - Copic Markers for shading

I die cut the flamingo from many scraps (including dark pink) & a pale pink card stock. Assembled the two birds. Next I die cut the Hero Arts beach frame w/oval using kraft cardstock, then again in green. Trimmed off the kraft palm leaves and replaced with green behind. backed the scene with a blue oval. Die cut a gold oval along with a second smaller oval to create a gold frame; added to the scene. 

Die cut a stitched rectangle and added to a gold A2 card, then adhered the oval scene. Die cut foliage from two colors of green scraps and added to the corners. Found an anniversary sentiment in the bits box and added it to the card. This will go to my brother and his wife for their early September anniversary.

I was inspired to pull out this flamingo set for the first time by the beautiful mood board for Just Us Girls Challenge #736. I'm also playing at Tic Tac Toe Challenge #252. My friend Betty designed the board so I made a special effort to get there - used the center vertical row of Die Cut/Free/Any Sentiment. And since my flamingo dies got first play, I'll send my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64.

Thanks for visiting! Enjoy your day!! 

Friend Flower

Hey everyone - I'm posting card one below at Die Cut Divas today, then a bonus follows only here. For our July Diva Challenge, we're all about Adding Glitter!! Most people love some glitter; I know I do!!

Supplies: Paper - Spellbinders Betterpress Pebble;

Lawn Fawn Spiffy Speckles Petite

Paper Studio A2 card and glitter paper; scraps

Stamps with dies - Scrappy Tails Flower Shop (Dies HERE)

Hot Foil Plate with dies - Scrappy Tails A2 Butterfly Frame (Dies HERE) 

Dies - Scrappy Tails Retro Birthday Blooms &

Stitched Daisy Blooms 

Other - Park Lane gems; Betterpress Leaf ink; foam tape

Our wonderful sponsor this month is Scrappy Tails, a company new to me. I placed an order for a flower die bundle and a glimmer plate & was very happy with the items. Scrappy Tails has generously donated a $25 gift card to their store which we'll award to our random winner in early August.

You might ask - Linda, don't you have enough flower die sets? Well, I made room for a few more - lol. On this card I die cut flower pieces (some glitter paper) from one set and the leaves (glitter paper) from another. Teamie Arlene (A Bit of This and That) had stamped off some flower sentiments for me so I made use of one here. Thanks Arlene!!

Rather than foiling the deco frame, I letterpressed it using Leaf ink. It's a thick plate so I had to remove all the shims before it would go through the Betterpress! Then I used the coordinating die to cut it out. Backed it with some LF speckled paper before adding to an A2 card. Added the blossom, leaves and sentiment - very quick and easy!

Ready for a bonus? I did another deco frame using Strawberry ink. This one I stacked with more die cuts for dimension and the look of a painting:

Supplies: Paper - Hero Arts Glitter Paper Basics;

Paper Studio A2 card; Spellbinders Betterpress Porcelain;

Sunny Studio Holiday Cheer

Stamps with dies - Scrappy Tails German Winter Village (Dies HERE)

Hot Foil Plate with dies - A2 Butterfly Frame (Dies HERE) 

Dies - Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders

Thanks again to Arlene who stamped off some German village elements for me - aren't they the cutest?! Sadly, they're sold out of this set at Scrappy Tails.... I colored them with Copics & assembled atop a snowflake paper with sparkly hills. Added the stacked frame and then adhered to an A2 card. Added sparkle lacquer to to the snow on the buildings. Popped a sentiment up with foam tape. Such a fun card to put together!

I'll add card one to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64 since the flower, leaves and frame are newly used. I'll add card two to the current Christmas Kickstart Challenge #88 featuring Festive Frames (my 3rd of 3 max entries)

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you in our July Diva gallery using some die cuts (or embossing folders) and glitter!! You have until 9pm Pacific Time on July 31, 2024 to enter. Good luck!!

Sweet Bunny on a Perfect Day

Hi all - another Friday night and I'm watching Craft Roulette Episode 224 live. Here's the card I managed to finish during the LIVE.

Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio A2 card cut to 3x3";

Sunny Studio Holiday Cheer; scrap of black;

Core'dinations plaid; Neenah white; Betterpress Porcelain

Stamps with dies - Hero Arts Spring Bunny Bundle & old MMH kits

Hot Foil Plate with dies - Spellbinders Tropical Bloom (GOM-May24)

Other - Copic Markers; foam tape

Host Mary Gunn FUNN had Maymay from Maymay Made It Crafts as her guest. The wheel spun for following parameters for us to use:

• Project - Mini Card: I made a 3x3" card.
• Colors - Perfect Day: To me, a perfect day has green grass, blue sky, yellow sun & white clouds.
• Element - Scents &/or Noses: My bunny has a sweet little nose, among fragrant flowers.
• Random - Packaging: I used some of that thin foam packaging as the mat layer between my card and the scene panel.

While watching the LIVE, I started pulling apart a packing box hoping to use some corrugated bits. Decided they smelled bad, especially after I sprayed them with shimmer spray - ugh!! Then I settled on a bit of that thin foam packaging. Tried spraying it too but it just wiped clean - I used it plain. 

Cut a 2.75" square piece of blue dotted paper and added a scrap of green plaid for the ground. The bunny, sun and cloud were stamped & die cut in my bits box; just had to color them with Copics. The sentiment was laying on the table - left over from a previous card where I Betterpressed some hot foil plates. Assembled and done!

That's it for tonight. I'm exhausted from trying to water my new landscaping. They had to level a large chunk of ground, then seeded it & covered with a straw blanket. Very tough to water without stepping on it and getting muddy - I hate mud!!

Have a great weekend and I'll be back with a Diva post on Sunday!

Gingerbread Stamps

Welcome! As promised I'm back with a card using the new Waffle Flower Postage Collage Gingerbread Stencil. The four piece set just arrived in Saturday's mail along with a bundle.

I've been having fun using these stencils! This will be my third and final card for the current Day of the Month Card Club Challenge #65 where they're celebrating postage stamps. 

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White;

Paper Studio A2 card; scraps of brown & lime green

Dies - Waffle Flower Postage Collage &

Christmas Banners

Stencils - Waffle Flower Postage Collage Gingerbread

Other - Hero Arts inks

I stenciled the 4-step design onto Neenah using various Hero Arts inks, masking as necessary. Next I die cut the stenciled panel with the collage die.  Then I die cut the banner from a brown & a green scrap.; layered them for a shadow effect. Adhered everything to an A2 card base. Did a small bit of detailing with a black & a white gel pen - done! Another quick and easy one!

Good for me - I used new stuff quickly!! I'll add my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge since the gingerbread stencil set got first play today.

Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!

Snowman Stamps

Hey there, friends! I'm back with a second card for the current Day of the Month Card Club Challenge #65 where they're celebrating postage stamps. I'm also playing along with Darnell who's doing Embossing for her IDEAS plan (3rd week of the month). You can see her gorgeous inspiration cards HERE.

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White;

Paper Studio A2 card; scrap of black

Stamps - Waffle Flower Postage Collage North Pole

Dies - Waffle Flower Postage Collage &

Christmas Banners

Stencils - Waffle Flower Postage Collage Snowman

Embossing Folder - Spellbinders Hexi Snowflake (EOM-Jul24)

Other - Hero Arts inks; foam tape

I stenciled the 2-step design onto Neenah using two shades of blue ink, plus black and orange for details. Next I die cut the stenciled panel with the collage die. I trimmed off two of the stamps and kept 4 in a block. Stamped a couple of snowflakes with the darker blue ink.

Die cut the banner from a black scrap. Embossed the A2 card with snowflakes., then ran the darker blue ink pad over the raised bits. Adhered the block of 4 stamps to the embossed card base, then added a fifth stamp popped up with foam. Adhered the sentiment - done! Again, I could have done some shading and detailing on the snowman but I went for quick and easy.

Another case of using new stuff quickly (just got new Waffleflower in the mail on Saturday & the Spellbinders on Monday), so I'm very proud of myself!! I'll add my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge since the snowman stencil set & the embossing folder got first play today.

Thanks for stopping by & have a wonderful day!! I'll probably be back tomorrow using the final new postage collage stencil in the WF bundle...

Poinsettia Collage

Hello & welcome! I'm popping in with a quick post for a couple of challenges. The current Color Hues Challenge #91 features Red & Green - perfect for Christmas cards which I desperately need. For the current Day of the Month Card Club #65, they're celebrating postage stamps. Here's my card:

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White;

Paper Studio A2 card; scraps of red & black

Dies - Waffle Flower Postage Collage &

Christmas Banners

Stencils - Waffle Flower Postage Collage Poinsettia

Other - Hero Arts red and green inks;

Park Lane gems

I stenciled the 4-step design onto Neenah. My Fiesta Red ink reads pinkish in the photo but it is red! I applied it lightly for the contrast with the medium red (unk name - from an old MMH kit). I used Red Royal for the flower centers but then covered most of it up with gems! Greens were Key Lime, another no-name one from an MMH kit, and Green Hills. Next I die cut the stenciled panel with the collage die (b4 adding the gems!). Adhered to A2 card. Die cut the banner from red and black scraps and layered for a shadow effect. Added to the card - done! 

You often see the collage in landscape but I chose to orient it as a portrait so my sentiment banner would stretch across the card. I could have/should have added some detail to the poinsettias but for this quick and easy card, I kept it simple. Oops - also meant to stamp some of the cancellation marks from the new WF Postage Collage North Pole Stamp Set - oh well.... 

I had placed a pre-order with Waffle Flower and just got the new Christmas bundle in the mail on Saturday - proud to use new stuff so quickly!! I'll add my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge since the poinsettia stencil set & banner die got first play today.

Thanks for stopping by & happy crafting!!

Warm Wishes House for Craft Roulette

Hi everyone - sorry I've been missing for a few days! I went to my high school reunion and had a wonderful weekend of activities! Back home now & had to catch up on Craft Roulette, watching Episode #223 on replay. Here's my card:

Supplies: Paper - Sunny Studio Polka Dot Parade;

Paper Studio Red A2 cards (both cut down);

Neenah Solar White

Stamps - Hero Arts Wishes Come True (retired)

Dies - Hero Arts Square Infinity Dies

Other - Copic Markers; Hero Arts sparkle lacquer 

Mary Gunn FUNN had Tracy Fear (@Not Afraid of Color) as her guest. Tracy enjoys mixed media and has been making cards for a while (has about 66 CR cards in her gallery). The wheel spun some interesting parameters for this week:

Project: Smaller/Larger - I thought it would be fun to do a square card that had a smaller square card on the front. I cut one A2 card to 4.25x4.25" & one to 3x3".

Colors: Planets - I googled and found this YouTube video describing the colors of our solar system's plantets. I'm sure you could find other solar systems with an even larger color range! I went with grey for Mercury, red for Mars, blue & green for Earth, yellow from among Jupiter's colors.

Element: House(s) - I pulled out an old Hero Arts stamp set from 2010 which contains a little house, among other images.

Random: White Border - I put a white border around the patterned paper atop the larger square card and echoed it on the smaller card.

Stamped the house image and colored with Copics; cut into a square and layered with blue and then the white border & onto a 3x3" card. Cut a second A2 card to 4.25x4.25" and added a white border to the patterned square. Assembled and added sparkle to the snow. Done, except to stamp the insides of both cards...

I had to laugh - while watching the replay, I just went to the parameters & paused it while I made my card. When I watched the rest, I saw that Mary had the same idea - a small card atop a larger one. Funny how great minds think alike!

That's it for today, friends! I hope to get around to commenting on everyone's projects from this past weekend. Thanks for stopping and happy crafting!!

Stitched Ornaments Frame

Hey friends - welcome! I had some time last night & this morning to craft. I wanted to participate in Darnell's IDEAS program (see her gorgeous inspiration cards HERE). This week D is for Dies - always can find dies to use around here!! Also wanted to make another a card for the current Christmas Kickstart Challenge #88 - Festive Frames. I combined the two by using a Christmas themed stitching die from Spellbinders:

Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio A2 cards (green, pink, red); 

Park Lane gold A2 card; Hero Arts Bermuda

Stamps with Dies - Hero Arts Holiday Ornaments 

Stamp & Cut (retired)

 Stitching Dies - Spellbinders I'll Be Home for Christmas 

(DOMST-Oct23)

Other - Hero Arts Ultra Pink ink; DMC floss

I mentioned before that I've been doing some crafty organization and trying to use stuff from various subscriptions. Yesterday I pulled out a stitching set from last fall - first time used (9 months, not bad). Die cut the cover plate 4 times from A2 panels trimmed off card bases - green, red, Bermuda, & pink. On the green one, I also die cut out where the stitched tree could go. This is my "frame". I adhered it to a gold A2 card. Die cut one of the sentiments from the set and added to the designated spot on the card. When you die cut the coverplate, the sentiment area lightly embosses.

Next I stitched various ornaments and added them to the card along with die cut ones that don't require stitching. Die cut and added the ornament toppers. What to put in the "frame"?? Decided to stamp and die cut a 2015 Hero Arts ornament. Added to the tree opening with foam, then used gems for the hanger. I'll add my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64 since the stitching set is getting first play here.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!!

Gnomes with Legos

TGIF everyone - I'm popping in after watching the latest Craft Roulette Live (#222 - replay HERE). I started a card during the Live but took an extra hour to finish! Here's my take:

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White;

My Favorite Things Perfect Plaid (retired)

Doodlebug Designs Swiss Dot (retired)

Poptone Blue Raspberry

Stamps with Dies - My Favorite Things Hanging with My Gnomies (retired)

Dies - My Favorite Things Blueprints (retired);

Hero Arts Nesting Circle Infinity Dies

Other - Copic Markers; foam tape

Mary Gunn FUNN had Chelsea Comer, another crafty YouTuber (Inky Stamper), as her guest. The roulette wheel spun some interesting parameters:

Project: Dutch Door - I made my first Dutch Door card and it's a Double Dutch fold as learned tonight by watching a tutorial with Creative Moments by G. That was running on my phone with me at the paper trimmer and scoring tool while Craft Roulette ran on the laptop; I was multi-tasking, as usual.

Colors: Gnomes - Googled and found a site claiming gnomes have 7 colors (Blue, Green, Orange, Purple, Red, Chocolate and Pink); I chose blue and red as main colors with a few touches of green & chocolate and, of course, white for the beard. 

Element: Movie - Given I used faux "Legos" for my random item, we'll call it "The Lego Movie".

Random: Building Block(s) - I created a trio of faux "Legos" for the top of my Dutch Door. Used a rectangle & circle dies plus foam tape.

Just because we spun gnome colors, we don't have to include gnome images but I couldn't resist. I was looking for my MFT sentiments that go with the handyman tools - no luck. Ran into the gnomes and thought the new home sentiment would be cute with building blocks. Here's a view of the dutch door open:

That's it for tonight, friends - hope you have a crafty weekend! Thanks for visiting!!

Penguins in Festive Frame

Hi everyone - Happy 4th if you're celebrating! Rainy & gloomy here - parades and fireworks canceled - what to do?? Craft!! Decided to make a card for the current Christmas Kickstart Challenge #88 - Festive Frames.

Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio A2 card; 

Basic Grey 25th and Pine (retired);

My Favorite Things Christmas Cheer (retired)

Neenah Classic Crest Solar White; Betterpress Porcelain

Stamps with Dies - Spellbinders Festive Penguins (CSOM-Oct23)

Hot Foil Plates with Dies - Spellbinders All You Need Sentiments (GOM-Nov23)

Dies - Penny Black Red and Greens;

Hero Arts Wood Frame Infinity Dies

Other - Copic Markers; Hero Arts honey lacquer (on star & ornament)

I've been doing some crafty organization and trying to use stuff from various subscriptions. Today I showed some love to a Spellbinders stamp and die set from last year - first time used (9 months, not bad). Die cut a bunch of negative for the penguin and stamped them. Colored this one while watching Price is Right - lol. Die cut a bunch of frames and stacked for dimension. Covered an A2 card with Basic Grey patterned paper, added the frame with an inlay of MFT dots for interior, then the penguins. I had the holly berry sprig already cut in the bits box so quickly colored it to match my project. Assembled and added a letterpressed sentiment made with a hot foil plate.

I can't seem to get enough of letterpressing with hot foil plates. Here's a bonus:

Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio A2 card; scrap of black;

Spellbinders Betterpress Porcelain

Hot Foil Plates with Dies - Tropical Bloom (GOM-May24)

Stencils - Hero Arts Script

Dies - A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set

Other - colored pencils; foam tape; Betterpress Black ink;

TH Antique Linen Distress Ink; Hero Arts enamel dots

I took another unused plate from my Spellbinders box, pressed it and colored with pencils. Did some inking around the edges and soft stenciling on the left. Pressed a sentiment from the same hot foil set & die cut with the coordinating die, then added a shadow. Assembled on an A2 card - done! I was a little quicker on using this set - lol; will add my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

A Couple of Birthday Cards

Hi everyone - I'm sharing a couple birthday cards today! First up, a card for Darnell (djkardkreations) who had the anniversary of her 29th birthday yesterday. Happy Birthday, Darnell!!

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar white; Poptone black; 

Park Lane A2 card; Spellbinders Betterpress Porcelain

Stamps - Altenew Dynamic Blossoms

Dies - A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set

Other - Copic Markers; Hero Arts gems; foam tape;

I made a previous bellflower card using the color combo pink & aqua. Loved it so much that I wanted to color it in purples - Darnell loved it too. I die cut the purple one with a larger rectangle than the pink/aqua so more of the image shows. Added to an A2 card without a mat layer. 

The sentiment was letterpressed using a hot foil plate - turned out so gorgeous; I couldn't stop staring at it! Die cut it along with a black shadow layer. Added it to the card with foam tape, then popped some gems around.

Next up, a card for my niece that I neglected to share in her January birthday month.

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar white; Hero Arts Bermuda;

My Favorite Things Colorful Canvas; scrap of beige

Stamps with Dies - Hero Arts Flowers in Vase Bundle

Dies - A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set

Other - Copic Markers; foam tape

I stamped, colored and die cut the bouquet in vase - it's one large image. Added to an A2 card along with a canvas background, white mat and a beige "tabletop" where I'd stamped a sentiment from the same set. Quick and easy! The Flowers in Vase set got first play on this card (and I haven't used it since...) so I'll add to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64 - hope that's ok; I haven't shared the card b4. Will add the card I made for Darnell to the July Seize the Birthday Challenge #286 using Anything Goes.

Thats it for today friends. Hope you have a wonderful 4th of July tomorrow if you're in the USA - so glad we have freedom to live as we chose, including crafting!!

Thanks for visiting!!
