Store Bio

"Hi my name is Stitchy and I am Co-Owner of Stitchy Bear Stamps...we started this store April 1st, No Fooling ha ha..I live in upstate New York with my husband and two TEENAGE adults ha ha, I do say that loosely as they think they run the show here, NOT...

I been creating stamps for a little less than a year now and I am totally addicted to the craft..I started about 4 years ago making digital scraps and I knew there was much more out there, so a friend of mine introduced me to digital stamps...and the rest they say is history...I look forward to seeing all the beautiful creations come through...good luck everyone..stitchy xoxox"



-------------------------------------------------

Now for my card well I tried to be a bit clever & I really shouldn't because it doesn't work ha ha a five minute card took all afternoon, first I kept cutting it in half then the doily turned out to be too small for a card so I placed it on a square card I used a digi image the flower from the Marianne twice & entwined it. I used a freebie paper from Pink Petticoat, MS Punch, a 3D flower that I made up ages ago. I hope you like it as I thought the end result was OK.

Laura's Baby Card

This is for my Daughter Laura's baby that is due in a few weeks time I am so excited just as I was Grace & Ewan (can you guess what we're having).

This an 8x8 card layered with a pale blue card I then added a pearlised paper from Craftwork Cards, flowers from Wild Orchid, a rub-on backed with a slightly deeper blue which also backed the pram digi stamp (sorry don't know the owner) & flower at the bottom of the card which was done with Marianne Creatable finished off with a charm.

Party Card
