For those of you who are Indiana natives -- you might remember that slogan from a long time ago. (I'm getting old!) Well... I found out last night that there really IS more than corn in Indiana! I met up with two awesome gals last night at Archivers for a little craft time away from the kids. :) Do you recognize these sweet little faces? I got to meet Kimber for the first time last night... and MAN does this girl have talent! And... that's little Miss Jen Buck on the right. I met Jennifer for the first time last year at CHA & FINALLY got to stamp with her! We've decided that WE'RE going to write a book. We're calling it... 'Stamping Secrets'. Kimber doesn't think it's going to be a hot seller... but I'm feeling confident. ;) (Kimber just so happened to write a book called 'Scrapbook Secrets'. I'm pretty sure that she stole the idea from me.)
I've never been to a 'crop' before... and I don't scrapbook. -- So, it was an interesting experience. Instead... I attempted to make some cards. My mojo had kicked the bucket and I wasn't too productive... but I did manage to make this little guy: The little owl is from Unity's Mix Up of Cuteness set. Kimber was nice enough to give me a Jillibean Soup Journaling Sprout to put behind him. The sentiment and stitching are rub-ons from American Craft's Craft Fair line. AND... that funky retro floral paper is one of my new favorites from Sassafras. Yum-o! Hope you're having a great weekend! Have a wonderful Easter! God Bless! :)
Ah, being a Hoosier myself (although I live in Texas and love it, I'm still a Hoosier) I remember the 'more than corn in Indiana' slogan. It was just before the 'Wander Indiana' slogan. Sorry that your mojo went someplace else, but the card is still cute. When I get together to stamp with people, my mojo stays home. I end up just visiting and enjoying myself. Thanks for sharing with us. (and I would probably buy the book...maybe). Cathy
