I so love this bunny stamp from Great impressions.

It is free! She has awesome tutorials. I love her style and her accent remind me of home. I am from Augusta, Georgia and love the southern accent. I am hoping that in the near future I can have a video tutorial of my very own.
Today has been a great one, I spent it stamping with my dear friend Theresa. I love having stamping friends!
Ok, sorry today’s post is so short but I am so ready to have an adult beverage and call it a night. I hope every one is stamping happy!
Don’t forget to set your clocks ahead! I will be offering blog candy again this next week. Michelle, Your blog candy went postal today, I hope you will enjoy the goodies!
I am having fun with medallions. I made these three projects yesterday.
My favorite is the yellow medallion on the jumbo gold clip. These are easy to do and just require a little patience and pre-planning. The little crystals and glitter on these projects is outstanding. I just love glitter! (My husband — not so much)
Today I will continue to work with the medallions. I also plan to do some scrapbooking.
If you would like detailed information on these projects or have questions, leave me a comment or email me directly at ms.rhetta@verizon.net
All stamps are from Sparkle N Sprinkle Stamps. One more reminder to pick up the April 2008 copy of Scrap and Stamp arts magazine, I have a two page spill in it! (So excited!!)

how fun is this card!!!
Love your blog and I would LOVE to see that never ending card in person!!!!!! Thanks for the inspiration!
Michelle, email me at ms.rhetta@verizon.net with your mailing information so I can get this blog candy out to you on Monday.
I love the new Hanna stamps, below I took the girl cleaning and added the ‘I’d rather be stamping’ sentiment to the card. I finished it off with coordinatig paper and ribobn, it turned out really cute!
Here is another hint to the instrument I play. You have to use both hands (most of the time) to play it.
It is a very beautiful but cold day here in Maryland. For those who have asked the question about snow, the answer is currently we do not have any snow on the ground. It is getting later in the year and we really don’t expect to get any after around the 20th of February or so.
The scanner may be dead, but the digital camera still works. Above is a picture of the blog candy. Its not too late to leave comments or contact me directly. I will draw tomorrow and announce the winner! There are also a few surprises that will be added to the mix that I hope you will enjoy. It isn’t the best picture, but at least you can kinda see stuff.
I am working on trying to get our vacation plans down. It may still be cold out, but we are just so excited to be able to go to Carolina Beach, North Carolina again this year. As an added treat, we will have my niece Melissa for a month in June and July. I’d love to have her ALL the time, but one step at a time!
I just got my Hanna stamps yersterday, I got the ‘a clean house is a sign of a lazy stamper’ set yesterday, i came up with a cute card and used my ‘I’d rather be stamping’ stamp with her. It is cute, I’ll try and get the picture posted tomorrow.
Oh here is another hint as to the instrument that I play. It is made primarly of wood.
This is my version of the splitcoast Hanging Treat Box This project is fun and easy. There are so many possibilities for this treat box.
I can see it being used with those cute little slim quick snacks and some bottled water for that friend who is trying to get into shape.
Speaking of shape, I was diagnosed with Diabetes today. I got to talk to a great nutritionist. I confess to be a carb tripping (bread is my vice) kinda girl. Now that I’ve hit my early 40’s things are just well…. I need to make one of the hanging treat boxes with the slim fast bars for me! Life will change dramatically for me, but I am actually looking forward to becoming healthier.
With this in mind, I’m adding to my BLOG CANDY, I will include a hanging treat box. It will not be the same as the one shown. And unless I can peel my husband away from the ‘main’ computer, my scanner is now in the garbage. It is so sad… I’ve had that thing for like 7 years.
We’ll make this even more interesting. After a nearly 10 year absence, I have picked up an instrument. The first one to guess it correct will receive a card. Here is a hint, I’m not an ‘oboe’ kinda girl. If you have a guess, email it to me directly at ms.rhetta@verizon.net.
I welcome emails and comments, Since I am fairly new to this blog I want to grow my readership. My ultimate goal is to be picked up by a few more stamp companies as a designer. Stamping is my true passion.
Beginning today, every week I will feature either a blog or websight that I enjoy to visit. This week we will start with one of my favorites. Even though I am a seasoned stamper, I love this websight. Linda Heller’s Stamping school is worth the small (I think) $29.00. Its great for those days when you just need to relax and watch someone else involved in the creative process. She even has a blog with free videos so check out the websight and snoop around.
Disclaimer: I am not paid to *encoruage* you to visit any blogs or websights, it is my free choice to either encourage or discourage visits.
I will take a moment to encourage each of you to submitt those great projects for publication. You never know what will happen. It is so worth seeing a project you worked for in print for the masses!
