Pleasant Places: The birds and the bees (and butterflies!)

The birds and the bees (and butterflies!)

I do have a card-making/stamping tutorial coming soon for the one of you that requested it! :)

In the meantime, here's what I whipped up this evening to photograph my tutorial, using some of my favorite paper. These 10 pink cards and envelopes were about $2.20 total from the Target clearance section. Oh, yeah!! I love the size--very easy to design.

Notice my new $1 topiary "thinking of you" stamp! I made a variety of cards, figuring I'll make these a giveaway soon! :)

Now I feel like I accomplished something today. Well, in addition to the usual dishes, cleaning, cooking, taking care of our son, working...

Unfortunately, my Targets did not have a wonderful selection on paper or scrapbooking supplies. Neither did Michaels, for that matter. But I did purchase a lot of stuff (about 40 pages of scrapbooking paper) and lots of stamps and stickers, etc. Hopefully, I purchased all the right things! lol

Looking forward to it!; August 14, 2008 at 7:17 PM

FanTABulous quote

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -from A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson.
