I’m an artist trapped in the body of a professional drone! I’ve been published in various stamp mags and am currently on the Memory Box Design Team. Past design thrills include co-hosting the Hero Arts blog, being an original Hostess for their Flickr Group, and organizing and participating in their Hero Hostess blog hops.
Interests: rubber stamping, reading, scrapbooking, singing, watching excellent films

As stated in the last post, I haven't been here in six years. Here's another post that was started and scheduled to be published on August 3, 2008. I'm posting it now so the subject of the post can drop in and read it. I never finished it, sadly, but this is definitely GiGi all over again. LOL! Here's what was in my draft: Okay, so I'm sitting here at my computer, and my six-year-old is in the kitchen. She's entertaining herself, as is her habit since she has no sibling comrades. She possesses an over-active imagination and has a flair for drama (probably got this from her mother). Now, I can't swear to this, but I think I've just been listening to a musical version of Macbeth. I have heard, in the space of ten minutes, no less than: Three arias (mainly about taking a sh-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-w-e-e-r); More than three... Continue reading

I haven't been here in six years. *gulp* As I was tooling around in my posts que, I discovered a number of posts I suspect may never have been published. (Surely this cannot be correct, right?) But, just in case, they weren't. I'm publishing this one now because this is such a stinkin' cute pun'kin'! Take THAT, Mr. Easter Bunny! Here's what was in my draft that was to have been published 10/28/2012 (for heaven's sake!): This is also my latest card for Outside the Box, the Memory Box Design Team's blog. I N S T R U C T I O N S Make 4.25" x 5.5" card using Licorice; round corners. Cut Jack'o'Lantern cardstock panel (4" x 5.25") and round corners.

Hi, All, I've not been around (all my posted cards were scheduled months ago) and may put my blog to bed soon. I don't have any new content scheduled after March 7 and probably will not have any new content because I just haven't felt like creating anything with my hands. In September Gigi watched one of her dance coaches sustain a violent (and fatal) brain injury during their practice for the homecoming parade. My father died in October and my father-in-law died last month. I suspect these events (along with some other ones) have had a lot to do with my general sense of apathy for cardmaking. I apologize for not responding to comments in a more timely fashion. Thank you for the support over the years and I wish all of you nothing but the best! Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day.

Thank you for continuing to visit S.O.S. I wish I could be as active as in the past, but I only have one child - a sophomore now, if you can believe it! The years are growing shorter and shorter before Gigi spreads her wings and leaves our nest, so my crafting/blogging time is limited. I will continue to share at least one post a week featuring projects made with Hampton Art projects. The Card Chain Challenge has its own blog now (created by Angel Gail and Angel Jo). Almost 2,500 cards have traveled between 30 countries since September 10, 2009! I encourage you to participate in this monthly card exchange as it's a great way to make friends. (It's also nice to find something other than bills in your mailbox!) ;~D Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day. Deborah Continue reading
