Bookmarks

I also just finished up some Bookmarks that I made for a swap on one of the groups I belong to and will share them with you.  
This first set:  Bookmark on the left is all from the Natural Resource kit, the leaves were actually decorations used at Thanksgiving - I do recycle...., the one on the right is a mixed group of papers and stamps.....


The one on the left - I used a new "around the corner" punch from Martha Stewart - stamps and papers
 from various sources in my stash  The one on the right used a Herringbone Technique from Club Scrap and Technique Junkies, verse I found on a quote website:  http://www.quotegarden.com/books.html
Paper from various Club Scrap kits.












This uses all Club Scrap papers and fibers and a calendar that was provided by Hetty's blog http://craftchaos.blogspot.com/  Thank you Hetty



Valentine Cards

I decided to get a head start on Valentine Cards.....All of the papers on these are from the "From the Heart" kit from Club Scrap issued Jan 08.  Stamps are from the 08, 09 and 10 Valentine kits and flowers and gems from my stash.

Happy New Year

I know, I'm a little late in wishing everyone a Happy New Year.  We finally got a few days that I didn't have to work - when you work on an activity team at an RV Resort the time from Thanksgiving until after New Years can be very hectic.  On Friday there were 5 couples that took a New Year's day ride from Casa Grande area up to Tortilla Flats - an old Stage Line Depot - for lunch and the long way home - rode about 200 miles and then on Saturday 3 couples rode from our RV Resort up to Globe and Superior area - old Copper Mining area - and back.  Not sure how many miles, but I'm sure it was around 200 again.  I hope to get some photos downloaded and posted soon.

I did get back into a creative mode today - Technique Junkies had a "Brown Bag" technique in the latest newsletter and I had some brown bag paper laying around so played with tearing, inking and a little stamping and came up with this card.  Stamps are from Club Scrap.

I wish all of you the best for 2010.
