Hellooooooo Friends!!! Omg!! Sorry it has been so long! I didn’t stress about not posting because I figured you all thought I might need a little break. I had to get my stuff in order for taxes and I couldn’t do that until I cleaned up my studio. I think finally I am ready to share my space with you guys. Just a few more piles to clear and I am ready 🙂
“The Ton” is a new stamp company that has some really cool products especially in their newest release. Flowers yes please!!! A few months ago The Ton sent me this awesome shoe stamp set with so many great shoe designs. I wanted to color them all and couldn’t decide which pair so I stamped several for the background and settled on one pair to color. I LOVE the sentiment…one of many in the stamp set. I encourage you to check out their blog here and I think you will leave feeling inspired.
The beautiful frame die cut that really makes my card pop is from Paper Smooches..it’s a set of three frames or here is one that is a single frame hence less money.
During my absence I did film some coloring so stay tuned for that. Below is a quick snap of part of my counter that is finally clean from clutter! I love incorporating antiques with my stuff. Thanks for your patience and I look forward to blogging regularly again. I am really excited for the next 30 day June 1!!! I hope you all are good. Hugs, Kathy

Brithzi says
Cute card. Nice counter area. Taking time to de-clutter is good but it does take time especially when you clutter up the space you just de-cluttered and rearranged (speaking from experience–done that several times in the past few months.)

Did you see the round diamond stamp. I have to buy it and sent an ex a card saying ” you should have put a ring on it”. Lol Great stamp company thanks for the introduction.

Hi Kathy! I have missed your posts but sure do understand you needed a break! The card is awesome,but I just LOVE your workplace,it’s beautiful and who wouldn’t be inspired in such surroundings!
Tracey Magner says
Hi Kathy, Great card, I love the shoes, I am a “shoe” collector, I collect ” Just the right shoes”, I also LOVE that typewriter, I saw a pink one on another blog a few years back and I freaked out and fell in LOVE with it because I love antiques and vintage and am a HUGE pink person, my whole scrapbooking room is pink, I asked her where she got it but I never got an answer, and now I see it again, wow, can you tell me where you got that please, please, I want it soooo soooo bad. Thanks Kathy and by the way it was good to see the post from you today we missed you but certainly understand you need and deserve a good rest.

Oh what a cute card! Love it! 🙂
Amy A. says
Such a cute card…also – your space has an orange typewriter – be still my heart. A: I adore orange; B: I have been searching for a vintage (refurbished) typewriter – any suggestions on where to look would be appreciated! What type of typewriter is that. Not that it matters – its orange – that is enough for me. I love it and your space – and all your pretty pencils!
Barb Schmidt says
like the card, love the vintage look of you desk.
Rufus says
Missed you! Glad that you’ve gotten things whipped into shape. Sweet shoe card.
