We are so happy to welcome back Sami Stamps as our sponsor this week. Samantha Siemers Ratliff is the owner and illustrator of the wonderful images offered at Sami Stamps. You might know Sami as the younger sister of Tammy at A Day For Daisies where she grew up fascinated with art and watching her sister paint all day in her art studio. Sami got her start through her sister’s store and now has an ever expanding selection of her own digi images at Sami Stamps. Sami’s inspiration comes from those things around her that make her happy in hope that it might brighten your day.

  6. Good morning everyone, wow in one day how the weather can change so much. Yesterday morning it was windy and stormy and this morning the sun is out and we have a wonderful blue sky. Our only problem is it's nearly 1st July and we still haven't had winter, we had a couple of cold days and nights but yesterday evening it was 19c at 4pm in the afternoon. I do apologise for not commenting over everyone's blogs last week. I had one of those weeks where I wasn't sure if I was coming or going and working until all hours of the morning and quite truthfully hardly getting to my computer. So this week I'm back again for commenting.
    Congratulations to our winner Louise and to top 3 cards awesome work ladies. Thanks to Sami from Sami's Digi Stamps for sponsoring us this week such great images to work with and to Sharon for our great posting. Take care everyone and happy crafting this week and wishing you all a wonderful weekend.
    Hugs

  13. Thanks for another great sketch. Bit last minute this week as I was waiting to see what the new challenge would be at Sami Stamps and see if I could combine them! Then I forgot about the twist! All ends well though - made it with 23 minutes to spare! Whew!

  14. But if this really is Clinton herself speaking chaussure salomon pas cher through an emissary, it would suggest the kind of stage fright that foretells a risk-averse, bloodless, pre-fab soldes salomon chaussure campaign. Sound familiar? Those were the hallmarks of Clinton’s losing endeavor in 2008 and, if the leaks are to be believed, the tendencies have Salomon Speedcross 3 Pas Cher deepened in the past seven years.
