When you make a conscious choice to be happy, no one can take it away from you because no one gave it to you: you gave it to yourself.

Some more Red, white & blue!

Ok I admit it, I got carried away with these papers & colouring my stamps to match. I enjoyed a spot of paper piecing too. Can you believe I'm posting 2 days on the trot?!

Right here we go 2 more Strawberry Kisses cards, coloured with Spectrum Noirs.

I just love this one with the cute bag & Snow peering over the top. Thought the paper piecing worked really well so I thought I'd try it again with the next card.


You'll see I'm using buttons a lot at the mo, my local haberdashery had a basket with lots of bags full of different coloured buttons. I couldn't resist so picked up quite a few bags with lots of colour schemes!

I'm so enjoying playing with the Strawberry Kisses stamps, they work so well with any colour scheme & papers. I'll probably be working through my favourite papers using these stamps.

Right must get on, I'm going out for lunch today with my fab friend Debs, we're making the most of a voucher I've got which entitles us to a cheaper lunch in our local farm shop restaurant. Yum!

Take care Zo x
