Hi Ho, Hi Ho it's off to stamp we go, with some great new releases this month. Looking to get your Christmas Cards done early, well we have the stamp sets for you!



 The special stamp set we have for you this month is:

"Enjoy the View"


Today we are showcasing our first stamp set for the month of September which is called "Cracked Hello"



Today I really struggled with my cards. Have you ever had a day where you are making cards and you have a vision in your head but just can't get it down on paper? That is my day today, no matter what I did I could not get my cards to look like the picture in my head.





I hope you enjoyed my cards today. Thanks for stopping and commenting. Have you ever wanted to ask the designers questions about their cards, but afraid to put it in the comments? Now we have a brand new forum on SpeedyTV for our blog hops where you can ask questions about the hop that you can ask in comments. Hop on over to SpeedyTV and join the forum here. Not a member of SpeedyTV not a problem join today it is FREE!!!! Be sure to come back tomorrow for our third installment of the October Blog Hop. Don't forget to comment on the designers cards and here to be entered for a chance to win one of these great stamp sets.

Thanks

Pretty cards even if they don't match what you imagined. Those days are so frustrating. That was me all last week. I had a vision and couldn't get it right. Hope you have a blessed day.

The 2nd card is so pretty! Love your sentiment in the middle!!!

Debbie, I think my first comment disappeared....but if it didn't then just delete one!!! Having an awful time with internet the past few days. Lucky to get comments made. It was out all morning today. ANYWAY.....GORGEOUS cards!!! I love your multicolored butterflies and sentiments on the 1st card. The white dots on the black make such a FUN accent.
I love the way you put the sentiment in the middle on your 2nd card. Love that sentiment!!!

Kathy Bradley said...

Debbie,
I love the first card with the pretty butterfly panels and the sentiment strip as well - and they all look lovely against your pretty EF! The second card is wonderful too - and will deliver a smile to someone!
