Antiques from the Attic
This darling card was another favorite of my customers. We liked the vintage look that featured Stampin’ UP’s antique brads and the butterfly cut from the new Blossom Punch.

Blog Upgrade
Please bear with me during a blog transition and upgrade. I have moved my blog from Network Solutions to WebsByAmy.com. Amy Celona is a Stampin' UP! demonstrator who has a successful webhosting business. She is cognizant of the needs of SU demonstrators and has a full range of training videos to support us.
Michelle Laycock of Laycock Designs facilitated moving my blog and did an update at the same time. Michelle is the graphic designer who designed my blog initially. Her talent is beyond my comprehension.
Both of these ladies are absolute professionals in manner and service. This was truely a synergetic turnkey transition from my aspect.
I am now running on the latest and greatest WordPress functionality and will be able to upgrade when ever a new version is published. You may notice some subtle changes in the layout. There is only one sidebar now on the left. This should allow the blog to load faster in your browser.
If you have a problem viewing anything, it may be that your browser is out of date (like the version I use at work IE 8.0).
Stay tuned as I get back at posting cards from last Stamp Camp and thank you for your patience.

Triple Treat Triple Flower
Over the next few days I will be posting the cards made at my January Stamp Camp. This card received a unanimous vote as the favorite card of the evening by my customers. The first time I looked in the 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog, the Triple Treat Flower Single Stamp went on the head of my Wish List. Had to have it. Now I know why. This color palate is perfect for this time of year.
Now this stamp is also being offered in the Sale-a-brations catalog and can be earned for free with a qualifying purchase.

Janet’s Birthday
My very dear friend Janet is turning 50 and there are several celebrations going on this weekend. I've made this special card for her and by the time you read this, the festivities will have concluded. I am wishing her many more happy years and welcoming her to the >50 Club.
A Grateful Heart
This is a card made last fall at a Stamp Camp. Just getting around to post it.
