Happy Border Buddies Day! Handstamped cards, Stampin' Up!™ and an on-line yahoo group is what brought Alison and I together many years ago. A special friendship I wouldn't have had without stamping. My dear demo friend Barbara Lash, said it best "It's more than rubber stampers" and it truly is. After all we would not have meet if it wasn't for stamps and the privilege of me being able to share it with you here on my blog.
Now with pinterest the ideas and inspiration are endless – while how we get together has changed, one thing has not changed, personal connections! Valentines Day is an opportunity to connect with those you love and what better way than to stamp up a card.
While you could stop by after work and pick up a card — stamping a card doesn't have to take you anymore time than picking on out. And what says you love someone more than taking time to makeing something handmade.

What a nice Valentine card. The colors go so well together and I just love that new pad of paper. Wish they would come out with more pads like that. You wouldn’t have so much paper waste with the larger sheets. That’s they way it seems to me.
Love the card! Thanks for the inspiration — I’m going to need lots of it in the coming weeks.
Great card Patsy, Have a great day. I hope your Valentine’s day was great. Ellen Hinds
