Another card with just jawing...does that surprise you? I guess it really shouldn't can I say that I think that I dream about this set at night. Yes I do I still love it. I also used the new rockabilly paper for it as well and I really like that paper as well I think that I am going to order like 10 packages of it so I don't run out. I was even thinking I might wallpaper my bedroom in it while Craig is out of town next week. Just kidding sweety (well kind of if nothing else the cost will stop me at two sheets per package I just can't afford it). We are getting ready for Craig to leave us for a few weeks which makes us sad but we have our big bad dog Jumba to fill in for him (at least that is the way that Jacob put it the other day). Easter candy is also out and I am proud to say that I am no longer even tempted by it. Not saying that this will last but it did make me feel good. I sat at the table with Craig and the kids the other night as they ate their first cadbury eggs of the season and I didn't once feel the urge to get out the fondue forks and fight anyone to the death for them. I think that that must be a good sign right. Well I hope that everyone is doing good and Julie I really hope that you saw my shout out yesterday if not here is another one. Oh and by the way I have also just recently discored the food blogs aren't they a ton of fun I love them. One of these days I am going to get ambitious and start making some of the things that I see on them. I did make my kids a special three choc hot cocoa this weekend it took two and a half hours. Jenny likes to point out that if I had made it on the stove instead of the crockpot like the recipe called for that it would have not taken nearly as long. But I like to point out all of the cooking time cause it makes it sound like a bigger deal then it really was. I got to play it when I can right. Well enough for now and on to the recipe for the card.

Recipe:

Paper: kiwi kiss, riding hood red, rockabilly paper

Ink: Basic black, versamark

Stamps: just jawing

Other: flower from pretties, clear rhinestone brad, silver brads, tab punch, 1 3/8 cir punch, scallop circle.

Thanks for looking.

I tell you I am completely obsessed with this just jawing set. I have more cards to post that I made with it as well. I am really really going to try and make a more concentrated effort into getting stuff posted on here at least every two to three days. Right now I actually have several cards so hopefully I can post all week. My house is in total chaos right now, but lately it always is. I am cleaning out all of my kitchen cupboards though and getting rid of the excess. We have to much and no where to store it all. I am also always trying to do something with my basement. We have completely rearranged it and we got one of those big wall units from IKEA and Craig spent a day last weekend putting it together for me and we set it up so that it kind of makes a barrier between my stamping area and the rest of the room it looks really good. He did a great job. Well thanks for looking and like I said I will try and get a post on everyday this week until I am caught up with the cards that I have to add.

Recipe:

Paper: Bella rosa, riding hood red, chocolate chip, pink pirouette

Ink: Basic black and riding hood red

Stamps: just jawing

Other: jumbo binder clip, old olive grosgrain ribbon, choc chip twill tape, pretties kit (flowers and pearl) brown felt flowers, silver brads and pink rhinestone brads.

I also took a carousel notes and traced it onto the paper I wanted to use and cut it out.

Thanks for looking. Oh and let me give a great big shout out to my friend JULIE.

Here is a card that I made this week. I like the way that it turned out. I really like the colors, and I love the bella rosa paper and everyone knows how I feel about the just jawwing stamp set I love it. I would really like to go downstairs and stamp tonight but have to work so I won't be. Craig is finally home from his long trip to Houston for the halloween trade show and we are so glad to have him back. We don't have anything really exciting planned for the weekend just enjoying having him home. Zach has a Jr. Jazz game tomorrow though and they are always fun. He is doing great and having a lot of fun. Hope everything is going good for everyone. Thanks for looking.

Here is the other card from stamp club. As I am looking at it now I am realizing that I never watercolored it. Same with the one that I posted yesterday. Oops. I am afraid that this one had a lot of retired stuff on it but I hadn't gotten my order from the new catalog in on time so hope everyone can forgive me this time. I do really like the Mr. Twigster snowman though and I really liked the snowflakes that were in the winter mini catalog. Loving the new catalog by the way it has so many cute new things in it. I have finally gotten my family room back the way that I want it and am hoping to start spending some time stamping several times a week. I have really missed it and am looking forward to spending more time stamping. Hope everyone is well and thanks for looking.

Hi everyone, sorry here we go again me apologizing for not blogging. That is one of my New Years resolutions and so far I haven't kept it. This was one of the cards from stamp club I thought that they turned out cute, however it was not as easy as I thought that it would be. I had a really hard time covering the words on the little red dot next to the girl. It says you make me smile, when you hold the little viewer over it you can see it. Remember the old hidden messages that we used to get in cracker jack boxes. It was a totally cute idea but the ink for the words couldn't be to dark or you could see it through the red and if it wasn't dark enough you can't see it through the red at all. But it is still fun. Stamp club was also a lot of fun. I have started selling avon for anyone interested you can visit my site at youravon.com/kathyjamison. Thanks for looking I absolutely love Avon and have used it for years so I thought why not? You can also contact me from there so let me know if you need anything or if I can help.

Ok I hope that everyone had a great and Merry Christmas. We had a great one here. I am a little sad that it is all over now. Most years I feel relieved but this year I was sad to see it go. This is the last card that I will be posting from the boutique, it is done with one of my favorite stamp sets. The ballet one that retired a couple of years ago. I used versamark and chalk for both images, sorry you can't really tell with the plastic bag on it. I am actually feeling like I really want to get stamping again. Unfortunately the basement is such a mess right now with christmas that I probably won't be able to stamp for weeks. At least it feels that way. We got a Wii for christmas and Craig and the kids have been trying to burn it out ever since we got it. They started playing guitar hero on it today. I have to say they are fun to watch but myself I really don't enjoy playing the game. Well I hope that everything is going good for everyone and have a great New year. I will try and get something done and posted within the next couple of days. I am also going to update the kids blog.

One more card this is a favorite I really like brown and pink and of course the tag cards again. Have a quick joke my sister told me that I thought was funny.

I was going to send you something sexy for christmas......but the mailman told me to take the stamp off my butt and get out of the mailbox. Merry Christmas.

Thanks for looking.
