I used up some of the little scraps that need to find a home.
Our temperatures are still very high and it's still difficult to focus on creating, however much I would love to just be inspired again. I am amazed at how many blogs are still active!
Some nice news is that our son Joël has returned home from two years of Bible School in Holland. But he had to leave his girlfriend behind and that is difficult for him.
Just wanted to share our new lamp above the kitchen table - my DH came home with it - he has such taste (I think!):)
I hope to be faithful and visit the blogs when the energy level is good!
Busy times ahead. Thank you all for the wonderful comments you leave, they truly encourage and motivate me - what a wonderful group of ladies out there in the crafting world!
Beautiful card, Jacqueline. Love the pretty button and sweet heart gem!

ReplyDeleteI really do love that stamp! And you make it look so beautiful.. It is so hot here in Las Vegas we try to go camping alot to get out of the heat.. So during the week I am stuck indoors most of the summer! I thought I would get alot more crafting done.. but I haven't, Oh well maybe this week!
