If you're new to my blog, then you may not know that I'm not only on the Impression Obsession design team - I'm also one of their artists! You can find all my stamps HERE. It's always fun during these blog hops to be able to share my stamps, some thoughts behind them, and some fun ways to use them. 



I love the sentiment on this first card - Fall/Winter stamps are typically drawn in February, and this February was my husband's 3rd month of unemployment - these words are still on a post-it note next to my computer, and they gave me so much strength during those 4 months of waiting!

I've been wanting to add some beach-themed Christmas designs to my collection for my coastal and international friends - I truly hope you like these! They were a lot of fun to put together. You'll find a shell border, shell wreath, shell tree, holiday hanger, and some other sentiments that coordinate. The level of detail in these makes them great for coloring or just stamping in a neutral ink and adding a few colored accents.

  21. BEAUTIFUL WORK, Dina! I totally get what you're saying about your husband being unemployed for so long. GOD IS FAITHFUL! We too went through a time without a paycheck... & God kept us fed & met all of our needs! We are to take that time & trust in Him. As I'm SURE you know this! With little ones, you can't give up either! Only show them that you are trusting God to supply, AN EXAMPLE TO THEM! I think the sentiment you have on your first card is PERFECT & SO ENCOURAGING! ANOTHER SENTIMENT I "need!" Your art work just adds to the beauty of the sentiment! ;) INKY HUGS DEAR LADY!!! ;)<3

  30. Oh Dina, as I sit here in South Florida, so close to the beach, you've brought the ocean to paper with such beauty! I can almost feel the salt in the air and the ocean breeze with each - from the sand and sea colors and the gorgeous shells! These are just heavenly!
