New Kelly Panacci Stamp by Hampton Art

Woohoo, Kelly is letting me play with here new line of stamps that is through Hampton Art. They are so cute and so much fun..keep an eye for them and ask your local retailer to stock them for you! Here is a quick card using 6 different stamps from 4 different sets, they go so well together and have elements from her prior lines in them so they mix with older paper and still look fresh!

Thanks Kelly for letting me play! And this card is for you today!

A few LOs for you!

Well I have been behind on everything lately, for those still waiting on pictures from the Olympics I maybe getting to those today! Sorry for now this may keep you busy, LOs from last month.

Olympic Whirlwind!

Well for those of you that read a while back that I had won a trip to the Olympics I wanted to let you know it was FANTASTIC! We went to 4 hockey games, 2 speed skating, aerials, ice dance and Grouse Mountain. We stayed at the Granville hotel as Coke had it for the whole event and put on a wonderful stay. Lots of great food and hospitality. We got some great swag, clothes and such...great mementos. We went to the cauldron, Open Happiness house, Live City, Olympic store, public market etc. It was a trip that I will never forget. The excitement was infectious and the crowds were crazy....Canada did amazing with 14 Golds amd 26 in total! So much to tell and so little time, I am watching the closing ceremony now. Keep an eye on my blog as I will be posting pics shortly. Hope everyone had an opportunity to watch it at some point and cheer on your athlete's! Keep well and keep cheering for the Paraolympic athletes that are just starting their journey in a few days...bye for now
