I met Nancy (nwilliams6) a couple weeks ago on SCS, and we have had so much fun encouraging one another! Nancy's stamp pals moved away and she needed something to jump start herself, so she challenged me to make a card with a recipe, that was not about food, included bling, and we could not post until it was rec'd. I got my card long ago, here is a link to Nancy's recipe-
The image I used was a gift to me from Michelle, the Stamp Animal (Shellapoo) and has been paper pieced and watercolored. Thanks Animal- I love my stamps! XXXOOO
Thanks for looking!

Oh, how fun you and Nancy have been an inspiration to each other. This card is sweetly reminescent of days gone by with that wonderful dp, image and gingham ribbon! Oooh, I really really like this!

That is just the sweetest image. Love it. You did a wondeful job paper piecing it. This should be just what Nancy needs to get her moving again.
Great inspiration.
