New Stamps, Stamp Show Photos & More

I had a lot of fun at last weekend's Novi Stamp Show. I helped demo some Rubbernecker stamps with Charlene (a.k.a. LilLuvsStampin). I've posted a couple of photos that Charlene took at the bottom of this post.

I've had fun making cards with some of my new stamps. I love the teddy bears in this set of inchies! There are 30 images in this set (426). I used three of the images to make a Congratulations card for my son's physical therapist. Her first grandson entered the world prematurely but is doing well! I'm so happy for her, but I'll also be happy to see her back in Michigan. My son has been doing so awesome in therapy. Yesterday, with little assistance, he stood for the first time since his surgery in May and even took a few steps with a walker!

I think this lady (Jessica) looks like Julia Roberts in the 1990 movie, Pretty Woman. In the movie she wore a brown with white polka-dot dress and a hat like this image. You can see her in the trailer here.

Color Challenge: kraft, red, yellow & optional green
I used creamy caramel instead of kraft(crumb cake) because I only have a marker in that color.
