Well, I’ve started to think of Christmas. I know, I know… it’s too early. But, we’ll have four grandchildren by then and it will be my first Christmas as “grandma”. I think that requires me to spoil them. The oldest is a 12 year old boy, so that is going to be tricky. I remember my boys at that age. All they wanted was video games and bicycles. Then I’ll have a 5 yr old granddaughter and 2 infant granddaughters. Those three should be pretty easy. At any rate, it’s a challenge I fully accept!
Making a card for this week was a challenge for me. I initially wanted to make a card with the Sunflower image/die, but after stamping the image several times with no clear image, I discovered my desk mat (a seamstress mat), has a warp in the area that I normally stamp. I need a new one!

I doubled up the image to make it really stand out.

Stamp Simply Clear Stamps – Farmhouse Simple Sentiments
