My two good friends, Becky and Liz joined me at our favorite stamping store in Milwaukie, Stamp a dee do da, and we played for almost three hours making special valentine cards! Even I learned a few new techniques and got to play with some new material which was very fun! Afterwards, we went to Gigi's for a bite of lunch and because we were so close and Liz wanted to go, we all went to "Simple Folks". A delightful little store full of goodness and cheer! Both Liz and I bought a garland that had 'white' berries' on it and we purchased a package of little lights to intertwine in the garland. As soon as I got home, I set it out on my entry table and plugged in the lights, it looks so festive! I can see this staying for many seasons! I also bought a wooden sign that reads: "This is the house that love built" I thought that was so appropriate for our entry table, because indeed Scott has built this house for over two years now and I am sure every nail and board was done with LOVE!
And this little card I made when I came home from the class. It is a digi stamp, which means I purchased a digital stamp online and have it in a file on my computer, so I can print out as many of these little girls as I want. Her name is "Lily Valentine Ballerina" I couldn't resist, because you know I, too, have a Lily! I will need to print out several of these and let the girls color her and make a card also!
