As most of you learned yesterday...Elsa with Justafew Designs and JustaFewFriends is releasing her own line of Stamps!  After years of hoping and planning...She has ARRIVED!  We have all admired her talent and have caught glimpses of her "Doodles" throughout her "Career" and have asked for more!  She has delivered and delivered Big!  She has brought together some of the Ladies...formerly from the Den and now from the Sassy 6 Mansion and we have been busy creating our projects using her images!  I am sooooo excited!  I have always loved stamps and coloring them but never was quite sure if I was doing it right...well, I have learned that there is no set way of creating!  Just DO IT! It is so fun and soooooo easy! I have rediscovered the joys of my childhood of coloring and shading and just bringing a beautifully designed image to life!  But now on a grown-up scale!  I look forward to creating with all the other stamps in her collection and b...

Hey All!  As most of you know I cannot keep a secret!  I do not do it on purpose or anything like that...but man somehow I always slip up and let it slip out!  LOL! But NOT THIS TIME!  While I really thought I was gonna explode I didn't!  I kept the secret and now it is time to share it with all of you! Elsa with Justafew Designs and JustaFewFriends is releasing her own line of Stamps!  After years of hoping and planning...crafting and drawing...SHE HAS DONE IT!  And what an awesome line she has produced.  She has put together a group of talented ladies called the Sassy 6 and I have been invited to be one of them!  I am sooooo excited!  My skills/talents are not at a level of the other ladies because I am just learning this craft but Elsa's stamps make it so easy to do! Let me introduce you to my first stamp...her name is Lady Darla!  I wanted to think outside of the box...or at least for me...so I printed her on Kraft cardstoc...

A BOX FOR MOMMA!

Image
Welcome Everyone!  It is hard to believe it is already time for Mother's Day, WOW!!!  This year is pouncing by!  We here at the Just a Few Friends Den would like to welcome you to our Pride's display of Mother's Day boxes!  We were asked to make or decorate boxes for this months theme and this is what I came up with.  Mother's day has been a difficult day for me since I lost my Momma 3 years ago but I am still learning that I need to look at all those happy years I had her with me and try to be that mom to my children and step-children.  So I hope you all enjoy! My project is a decorated heart box! I will be able to use it as a trinket and/or memory box and it can store a small heart-shaped mini album as well.   This is our lineup!  Enjoy! If you arrived on my blog by chance, please head on over to the beginning  Elsa's Blog if you've been hopping with us...GRRRRRRRRRREAT...now pounce on over to Linda Linda's Blog Thanks...
