About Me

My photo
Welcome. My name is Lisa and I live on a farm in Northeastern PA. I have a wonderful husband of over 30 years and two fabulous sons. One with a wonderful wife and another with a wonderful girlfriend. I have a 6 year old granddaughter and an 4 year old grandson. We have a dog, two cats, and 5 horses. I started into this art as a possible scrapbooker until my good friend Lou Ann (SCS Crooked Stamper) invited me to a Stampin' Up party. Now I'm hooked. We had to turn a room of our home into a craft room for all my stuff. Then I needed a second craft room and did classes. Then I decided to open an in home store using three more rooms of our home. Between Lou Ann (Crafter and IT department) and Mary Ann (Crafter and Jewelry department) and a few other friends, I'm having the time of my life!!!!

WMSC114 The Bee's Knees


[WMSC114%255B4%255D.jpg]     It's Sunday night and dh is watching a football game while I'm playing cardmakers.  And look at this adorable sketch by Anya Schrier for the Waltzingmouse Challenge WMSC114.  It's another 4 X 4 card for me and I'm really getting to like the size and shape.  And this sketch has a whole bunch of something (those little circles) to put on the card.  Along with the sketch you have to use at least one Waltzingmouse stamp.






     While going through my WM stamps I came across "you're the bee's knees" stamp, which made me think of a card I just saw made by Linda (aka The Funkie Junkie) just did using a Tim Holtz honeycomb ef.  So that's what I did, sponging on some Tim Holtz Distress Mustard Seed.  The rest is totally simple with brads, ribbon, pom-poms the some stickles.
