Gosh, I've been so busy that I've not had any time to play with my new stamps! Over the weekend when my mom came over to scrap, I stamped.
I love the Trendy Trees stamp set. When I saw the new catalog, I knew I had to have it. I saw a couple people on Spiltcoast that made a landscape with their trees. I thought it was so cute and had to try it.
I still consider myself a new stamper. I'm coming up on my one year anniversary of discovering stamping. When I get a new set, I go to Splitcoast to get some inspiration. I've also been checking out a blog called Mojo Monday. She gives a new sketch every Monday. I find this really helps me in making cards. Even if I don't follow the sketch, at least it gets me started. One day, I'm going to get brave enough to participate!
Every Monday I print the sketch for the week. I keep them all in a binder. When I get stuck making something, I get out the binder and find a sketch I like along with the ideas I get from Splitcoast. If you are new to stamping and get stuck like I do for ideas, check both of these sites out. You will get lots of great ideas from them.
