Hello there,

I was hoping to get some stamping in yesterday but, fate had a different plan for my day.  The night before, a drunk driver drove off the road into the drainage ditch of our next door neighbor’s property and coming out of the ditch the car went airborne and slammed into a power pole.  The drunk couple in the car got out okay and thank goodness they ran into a pole instead of another car.  Long story short, we didn’t have power until the pole was replaced etc.  It was a very dark and cold day.  I spent the day with so many layers of clothing on trying to stay warm there was no way I would be comfortable stamping, lol.  Good thing I’ve lost weight and had plenty of fat clothes to layer on.  That’s right I’m down 42 lbs now, woot woot!

Now that I have light and heat today it sure was nice getting back into my studio to stamp my cares away, so therapeutic.

If you know my style you know that I love to use stamps in unexpected ways.  Today I took a stamp from the beloved, Lovely as a Tree stamp set and put a twist on it.  I gave the trees these whimsical crooked trunks.
