Bio.


I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people. I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not fin what I wanted so I started to draw myself. This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them  and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!

Many thanks to our generous sponsor,Di's Digi Downloads for
their continued support.

BSS IDEA - GIRL SNEAKERS


Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Idea.

Happy Belated Easter.  Hope everyone found a way
to celebrate the holiday under very stressful situations.
Unlike years past, we spent the day in our own home (again)
It was our Granddaughters birthday, we drove Easter and
Birthday presents over to their house, put them on the porch
and wished her a happy birthday through the glass picture 
window.  Later in the day we were able to skype them
and talk to them.  

The card this week is a very simple card, but
the pink sneakers tell their own story.


Stamp - Pink Fresh Stamps - Walk, Crawl or Run (BB-133)
The stamp set comes with 7 sentiments which are very small
print.  The one I chose for the inside of the card says:

Shoes and Rainbows have a lot in common
but most importantly
They come in all colors.
Woodgrain paper background
Colored with Copics

I think the next time I make a card with this image
I will stamp the sentiment, then enlarge it on my
printer.

Thanks for stopping by today.
Have a good week.
Until later....

BSS IDEA - Herbs from the Garden

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Idea.


Another week!  Seems they are all blending together.  It has been a week and a half
since we went out.  Going outside to feed the birds and squirrels and
getting the mail is a treat!  Foot traffic in our neighborhood has been
fun to see except the dog barks at each and every person walking by.
Hoping the weather warms up and the sun shines so we could do some
much needed yard work.

I am feeling so blessed that I have my wonderful stamp  room to retreat 
to and have been creating quite a lot of cards and projects.

Here is the card for this week.







This wonderful stamp is by Penny Black - Herb Garden (40-736)
The inside sentiment Die is also Penny Black - Great Love (51-337)
Hello Die is Fawn Lawn - Hello Border #LF1982
Card Stock - White, Light Green and darker green pearl
Designer Paper is from a 6x6 pad called Farm Meadow by Craft Consortium. I love
these beautiful papers.
Colored with Copics 
Finished card is 51/2 x 5 1/2.


That's it for me for this time.
Please stay home and stay safe.

Thanks for stopping by today.
Have a great week.
Until later.................
