My latest find.

Can I just tell you how much I love this store? I was looking for some sheets of Cosmo Cricket's Early Bird because it was available online before anyone had it here locally, my normal online stores didn't have it, so I Googled and found this place. I am ashamed to admit that I have placed about 6 orders since then. Madness, I know. But they send me these e-mails giving me 25% off - and it counts on clearance and their bargain of the day! This is the bestest store for vintage stuff - - all the neat little embellies you see the pros like Betsy Veldman use on their cards. They have the bestest crocheted lace and other frilly things, I finally found those mini clothespins I have seen on cards - and they were super cheap!

So here are a couple of cards I made with some Great Escape paper by Making Memories and some crocheted lace from AMM. I have only been making cards for almost 7 months and I have to tell you, I think I have finally figured out my style and what I like to create. It's been a process of trying to emulate, pick up tips, be inspired, follow sketches, and I feel like finally my own style has found it's way to the surface. Just so you know though, I have bunches of cards to show you that I created before this movement of mine, so you'll have to look at some other junk before it's all the real me *wink*

Have you made it over to Digiments to see the new releases yet? Lots of fun and different sentiments this month - Kid's Bible Songs for one! 24 Digiments for $10.

Hope you have a super Sunday!

I am glad you feel like you are finding your own style!!! And thanks for the link to another store. It's always fun to see what other stuff is out there.

School starts the 19th for my son, and kindergarten a week later. So, we are down to one month :(
