This is my second Design Team project for Inspired Stamps. I used the Psalm 139:14 stamp which reads " I will give thanks to You for I am Fearfully and Wonderfully Made, Wonderful are your works, and my soul knows it very well. Love this Pslam!! The Inspired Stamps company has lots of amazing and spiritual Stamps.

INSPIRED STAMPS CARD and BOOKMARK

Hi Bloggie Friends!
Today I am showing you a card and a bookmark that I made with my brand new Inspired Stamps.

I used the Daisy from the Flowers Stamp set on this Card! These stamps are very high quality. They leave a nice image when stamped on Cardstock. Making it very easy to color in.
"feel better" is from the More Perfect Sentiments stamp set. I had so much fun playing with these Stamps that I decided to make a Bookmark to show how Versatile these stamps are!


Please stop by http://www.inspiredstamps.blogspot.com/ to check out what Awesome creations my fellow Design Team members have made with these Amazing Stamps.
Have a Blessed Day!

Why have I been MIA..lol


My Family and I just got back last night from the Cecil Fielder Elite World Series which was held in Yuma, AZ. It was HOT!!!!! My sons team did really well. They won 6 games and went into the semi-finals and lost that game, the score was 2 to 1, it was such a close game.  I am glad to be back home and cant wait to start creating again.
I know this post is not scrapbook related but I wanted to give a little explanation on why I have been MIA, between some invitation orders that I had to fill, and my sons world series I have not had very much time to create.

Please visit my blog on Thursday for some exciting news and Monday for the Cupcake Blog Hop.

Oh and i almost forget to tell you guys that I am going to my Local Scrapbook store This Friday night for Crop Night with some of my Crafty Friends to help celebrate my Birthday :) I hope to get a lot done on Friday!
