Missing You Happy Home
Happy Home is a nice stamp set with some cute sayings. Several of my customers have said the art work reminds them of Winnie the Pooh. What do you think – do you agree?

I recently had my tag class using the Oh, What Fun Project Tag Kit. We had lots of fun making them. They look even better in person than in the catalog.

Dove of Peace
Isn’t this dove beautiful embossed in gold? This is one of the cards we did for my Christmas Card class earlier this month.
