Tiger Tiger


I was really excited to receive a set of Gerda's first ever set of rubber stamps.  They are lovely deep etched rubber stamps.  A pleasure to use.  Although they are technically a "Halloween" set I decided to show that they are actually quite versatile.  I used Tiger Kid for this card.

Happy Autumn Fall

It always amuses me to think about the change of seasons and how opposite they are around the world.  Its now spring here but for many of you its now Autumn or Fall.

This cute little Digi stamp is new at  Gerda Steiner Designs and is the challenge stamp for September.  So make sure you pop over and take a look.  Another exciting new addition at the store are Gerda's first rubber stamps and they are just adorable.  Lucky me had a set arrive on my door step just today and I can't wait to use them.  Keep an eye out later in the week!!!!!

The papers I used are from Maja Designs Life in the Country Collections and I have to say I am a little in love with these papers.
