G’day Stampers,

I received this lovely card via email from Jenny for the above sketch & just had to post it so that you could all check it out!

Let me know what you think, as I am sure Jenny would just love to hear your comments. As she does not have a blog, email your comments to me or to the blog & I will be sure to pass them on.

Thanks for looking!

Enjoy!

I’ve sat myself down tonight & come up with a matching Gift Card Holder to go with the card in previous post.

I’ve often seen these holders around the blog world, but have never attempted to make one. After much trial and many errors, no instructions, I think I may have nailed it!

Using the Mother’s Day Challenge over at Late Night Stampers, I’ve combined SSC # 148 from Stamping 411 – http://stamping411.blogspot.com – to come up with a card suitable for Mother’s Day.

Of course, how can you go past Stampin’ Up!s® “5th Avenue” stamp set for mother’s day, but then that is me!
