Ramblings and Mojo Madness

As a milestone birthday approaches I am have times of reflective thought.  Today’s reflective question is why do I blog my stamping.
The number one reason is to chronicle my “adventures”.  I do not keep many of my cards (just the ones I deem ugly and unworthy to go into other’s hands).  They get given as gifts, sent to rubberstamping companies, sold (not so much any more) and a select few get sent out to people as actual greeting cards.  So I have very few cards on hand.  The ones I do have on hand were made 3-4 years ago—and should end up in the recycling bin.
In just browsing a few folders I came up with some of my favorite cards of the winter of 2007-08.  Feel free to take a gander. 

On another note; I made a card for this week's Mojo Monday Madness.  I used one of my new Verve Plain Jane Scripture Stamps.

Thanks for stopping by.

May Flowers

One of my favorite jokes when I was in grade school was:

Q: If April Showers bring May flowers, what do may flowers bring?

A: Pilgrims

(get it?????  May Flowers--Mayflower--boat--Plymouth Rock???)

Anyway….

I have May Flowers for you.  My good friend and I were on a road trip last weekend and we just HAD to stop at a stamp store along the way. (YKWIM???)  Well there was some paper that was just too cute and asked to come home with me.  What could I say??

I hope you like the paper, and the stamp set too for that matter—because  They work REALLY well together.  And since I have the organization skills of a 4 yr old, I am trying to enjoy it and use it up.

 

I think the second one is my mom’s birthday card.  The first one uses colored (Prismacolor) pencils and the second one uses watercolors (re-inkers).

Other Deets:

Stamps: Wild Flower Set and Abstract Floral Background  from Rubbernecker;

Paper: Prism: Simply Smooth Ivory; Iced Yellow; DP: Bo Bunny and My Mind’s Eye;

Ink: Chestnut Roan Fluid Chalk Ink;

AND for MORE May Flowers (the floral kind—not the boat kind) Check out my buddy Judy at Joy in a JAR!!  Not only does she have some BEAUTIFUL flowers and ideas on her blog, but she is celebrating her blogaversary and has BLOG CANDY!!

AND come back here TOMORROW (Wednesday) for Wacky Wednesday!!!

Anyway—I been doing some stamping for fun and for REAL LIVE PEOPLE—LOL!  And I just wanted to show all of my virtual stamping friends what I am up to.

I hope you are having a great weekend!!
