Spotlight Technique Blessing of Home stamp set.
Spotlight Technique Blessing of Home Are you loving these cards?? I sure am. These are using the Spotlight Technique Blessing of Home and Honeybee Home stamp sets. Each has a different look. Yes, I used my mostest favortie Crumb Cake and Highland Heather. However, the curve ball was the Basic Grey and Mango Melody card.

October Girl’s Night, the first card.
October Girl’s Night On the first Friday of each month, you can come and make some birthday cards. October Girl’s Night was no exception. We crafted, talked and laughed too! This was the first of two cards that the girls made. We always have two designs and they made two of each design. I saw this layout somewhere and knew that I had to try it. To simple?? I think the technique that I added kept the ladies on their toes. The Country Home stamp set has the beautiful water jug. But where in the heck did I get that sentiment?? Well, I made it. You might want the Stamparatus…
