Back to Stamping

This past week has been taken up with getting an estimate for the damage to my car and getting ready for FUNshops and Stamp Camp and a little get together on April 3rd at my house. Then, the card in my digital camera decided to go belly up....so I was without a camera for a few days till DH remembered we had a small card that came with the camera. I looked in the bag and sure enough...so I am back in business again ;-)

Two things I have been working on, but haven't quite put the finishing touches on, are a little basket that I 'cased' from my SU friend, Paula, who had it on her blog. I didn't have the directions for making it so I just 'guessed', but they are sure fun to do.

I used TAC's 8x8 background papers to make the little baskets. I just love these background papers for adding just a little extra touch to cards etc. As you can tell, I am not done fiddling with it...but found the daisies and LARGE paper clips a fun added touch!

Then, I have been playing with paper bags.....you can do so much with paper bags...YES...plain ol lunch bags. Here is one idea:

Again....needs 'something'....but you get the idea. This is a little invitation pocket card. The invite is actually on the inside.

My next project will be a Scrapbook made from these paper bags. I just love 'projects'. I need to get back to making cards, but for now....the 'crafty projects' are capturing my attention.

If you try one of these fun projects, please let me know....I always love to see other people's art....and how they have taken it to the next level!!!
