Who's Afraid of Storms?

I sure hope my boys stay dry and warm last night camping. The house has been very quiet, a little too much for my liking but I sure welcome the "me" time. My evening alone turned out to be very productive stamping wise, NOT :-O I went for Thai food (yum!) and came home to mess around on the PC for a bit and went to bed bright & early, like 8 pm. Woke at around midnight and here I am still on the computer. Maybe I can motivate myself a little later to stamp something before the boys get back.

Here's a card I did a couple of days ago. I have been waiting for this particular sentiment stamp (Stampers Anonymous) for ages. And I want to showcase it as main image here. The beautiful ship is from Stampin' Up! I wanted to add a sailor knot as an embellishment but I didn't know how to make one. I went on line to look and still couldn't figure it out. So, I just left it as is. Hope you like!


Thank you for stopping by today! Until next time, may mojo live happily in your heart, and may passion bloom in your soul. Be well!

Hi Manna,
I haven't been to your blog for a while because I was busy painting. I'll take a tour now and see what's new. I see you have changed your blog design. It suits your style very well.
