I have moved and am finally back to stamping. It will be a challenge to continue stamping as I'm living at my sister's, all my supplies are in her basement but I stamp in her home office. I picked out colors under poor basement lighting and ran up and down the stairs a few times. But I'm very lucky to have such a wonderful sister who has provided me with a bed and place to create.
Over the past few years, when things were quite bad for me, I had many friends who were willing to spend time with me and treat me to an occasional meal out. To say I am grateful is an understatement. so this card could be a thank you to one of them. I decorated the inside with some of the dp and a stamp that says 'gratitude.' I'll probably have to make about 10!!!!! It's good to be back stamping. I check out of my apartment today, which is a very good thing, since I'm very sore and tired from all the lifting, cleaning and toting.

I'm so glad you were able to find some time to stamp....it can be very relaxing. And I agree..sisters are wonderful! This card is fabulous! Your dp looks like a rich upholstery and I love that image with the twirly accents. The watch parts go great as your smaller oval piece. Lovely card Jean!

Nice card! Love the rich colors and dp. Great thank you to your kind friends. Hope you enjoy being with your sister and that you'll get used to where things are in the office so you can grab all you need in one trip, and not have to race up and down the stairs so much ... heehee!
