Hello out there in blog-land. My name is Danielle and I'm a SAHM as well as a Graduate student. I live in beautiful mid-coast New England and adore this area.

I have been making cards, mostly with my mom, for about six years now. There are lots of blogs around with some very talented artists, while some are very intricate and pieces of artwork on their own. You'll see my tendency is toward simplistic with the focus being the artistry of the stamped image.

I hope to inspire you with my upcoming images and card creations!

Checkin In!

Its been ages since I have posted, things have been crazy busy now that I have started student teaching.

Veronica has been keeping our 'sister' blog as much as her time allows. She is better with the words.. I'm better with just making cards.. we make a good pair!

But... I am excited to say Pink Cat Studios has opened up a digi stamp store with some fantastic images already! So I'm gathering up the cards I have made with digi stamps, mostly The Greeting Farm for now and I'm going to see if I can be a DT for a company with some fantastic digital stamps!!

I love the opportunity!

I made this in a bright blue as well and it is fantastic!! I'm not sure which one I like better though.

I'm excited about the new possibilities for digi stamps!

Hope to post more soon, but I do have some cards up over on the other blog.

A Move

Because of my love of sharing with Veronica (actually its because of my lack of blogging skills), we have created a joint blog in which both our cards can be seen and purchased if you wish to contact us.

You can find me here.

I hope you take a peek at the new location, we both have some nice cards posted with more to pop up in the next few days.

A visitor

 

I had a friend come visit last week, someone I have known for close to four years now. It was so nice to really see her and enjoy some time making cards and such. Veronica has a blog where she placed the two cards we actually made.. we didnt have much time to do tons of stuff. You can find our cute little samples here.

I wish I had an Archiver's close by to see what other super cute exclusive stamps they have, but alas probably better for the checkbook that I don't.

I'll try to post some of my cards soon.

A Poem

This was sent to me from Pamela's Gallery.... a very nice blog and website.  I don't know who the author is but it touched me and I wanted to share it with you.

One Flaw In Women

Women have strengths that amaze men.

They bear hardships and they carry burdens,
but they hold happiness, love and joy.

They smile when they want to scream.

They sing when they want to cry.

They cry when they are happy
and laugh when they are nervous.

They fight for what they believe in.

They stand up to injustice.

They don’t take “no” for an answer
when they believe there is a better solution.

They go without so their family can have.

They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.

They love unconditionally.

They cry when their children excel
and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy when they hear about
a birth or a wedding.

Their hearts break when a friend dies.

They grieve at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they
think there is no strength left.

They know that a hug and a kiss
can heal a broken heart.

Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.

They’ll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you
to show how much they care about you.

The heart of a woman is what
makes the world keep turning.

They bring joy, hope and love.

They have compassion and ideas.

They give moral support to their
family and friends.

Women have vital things to say
and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

Amazing how true the words are. I think all too often we forget how much we are to those around us.

Today, take the time to know your worth.

Hope and Penelope

This is Penelope, my sweet pink and periwinkle unicorn.

And this is Hope, the heartfelt loving unicorn.

The flash caught this one and really showed how much sparkle was in her tail and on her hooves. It isnt quite that intense when in front of you though.
