Impression Obsession-Old is New

Good Morning!!

Today I'm sharing a sweet and simple card using the Honeycomb Patterns set from Impression Obsession. I really like this two step stamp set because it allows your to jazz up the little beehive cells as you see fit!!!

The sentiment, which is included in the set, is over the top cute!!!!

Happy Monday and have a MOST AMAZING WEEK!!!!

Inky Oceans and Puppy Tales- A Tribute to a dear friend Joanne

I was honoured to be asked to be a part of a tribute hop for my friend Joanne Grezlak. 

I was saddened to hear she had passed away suddenly in May.

I was blessed to know Joanne through the stamping community. As an active member of Splitcoast Stampers, Joanne was very talented, helpful and I enjoyed chatting online with her on occasion and commenting on the pictures of our little Shi Tzu's . 

I will miss her very much <3 p="">

I created my card to represent Joanne's love for the ocean

Her Blogs  The Inky Ocean Gazer and The Inky Ocean Gazer 2 showcased her love for stamping and her black and white cards so lovely!!!

I must apologize for being a little late to the hop. For some reason I had it scheduled for the 7th, when in fact it was posted on the 3rd. 

I hope there is a vast Ocean in Heaven and Joanne continues to gaze at the whitecaps dancing across the wake.

Please stop by the following blogs to see the beautiful tributes
