In the upcoming weeks I will be posting some projects for a company called "Factory Direct Craft" Will be showing a number of ways you can use craft items to make decorations for your garden : ) There are tons of great items available at Factory Direct Craft, am looking forward to sharing some fun and easy projects with you all : )
Today (hopefully) am going to go on a walk with hubby, then get the wood needed to make our raised vegi garden, and.....might even put the raised bed together! Still need to figure out exactly what we are going to plant, but so far we know that bell peppers, tomatoes, corn, carrots, basil, oregano, thyme are in the plan.
This weeks links are a collection of things I have been finding online and bookmarking, no set theme, but some great information to enjoy. Keep thinking that I will run out of things to link to, and am continually surprised at how each month I manage to bookmark close to 200 interesting and unique ideas for paper crafting.
Don't forget to "like" the facebook page for AfterHoursStamper, I usually post there once a day, as well as follow on Pinterest (I have a papercrafting board, as well as a number of other boards).

CASE Study Challenge Blog: CASE (Copy and Share Everything) should not be confused with CAS (Clean and Simple), though I have trouble separating the two all the time : ) GREAT blog with some absolutely lovely cards that will inspire you to create amazing things.

Lots to choose from, and with these prices you will be able to increase your stamp collection without having to decrease your checking account too much! LOVE this company! This little baby chick stamp is....$2 for the unmounted rubber! And next week I am going to post with some blog candy from Stampers Best : ) Be on the look out!

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all of your links & posts, thank you.
I did take the Creative Chemistry 101 & that was a fantastic experience, learned so much my brain was on overload, I'm still learning after stamping for 18+ yrs.
I was with you in the Simple class, another great learning experience.
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Am excited to take the Creative Chemistry class as well, loved the simple class!
I figure that I will never stop learning something new with stamping : )
