From the Heart Stamps


I've got a cute little CAS creation to share today using Faithful Friends Angel Joy from From the Heart Stamps. I love this image, it's so sweet and comes with perfectly coordinated sentiments, it also happens to be the Stamp of the Month, and you still have a few days to play along to get next month's image free.

And Faith has a huge sale going on for the rest of November. Tons of images are on sale half price, check them out here. You can snap up some amazing images for a steal!

I've used the current sketch #88 for my layout. You can play along until tomorrow. The twist this week along with the sketch is to use woodgrain. I've used a tiny wooden snowflake along with the sketch which I flipped sideways to fit the image.

Thanks for stopping by today, I appreciate it. Have a lovely rest of the weekend.

Sami Stamps Cards

Happy Monday! Another weekend has come and gone, too fast as usual. I have two Sami Stamps cards to share today. These were from the HYCCT challenges at SCS. I'm still catching up on blogging all of them.

This first one uses the image called Winter Romance. This would make a great Valentine, too. We usually have plenty of snow around Valentine's Day.




And my second one used the image called Arms Full of Love.  This has to be one of my faves from Sami's store, it's so sweet. 


Did you notice that both of my images are from the back view? For some reason, I'm always drawn to images with a back view. Something very sweet and tender about them!

Sami Stamps challenge is going on with plenty of time to enter, the theme is anything goes, so easy peasy. And for every $4 you spend in the store between now and Dec 31 will enter you in a drawing to win 15% off of all Sami Stamps purchases during 2015. That would be a pretty great prize!
