Define Your Life in an Elegant Way

September 24, 2010

I had a great time stamping with the ladies in Rising Sun, MD last night!   The hostess asked me to make one of the cards for an “old but new creation.”  I had to think about that one for a while!  What exactly does that mean?  Old style, old stamp set, old layout?  I [...]
