I’m not sure where I picked up that saying (or even exactly what it means actually…). But I like it – and it seemed perfect for these cute hugging ducks from Penny Black.

I also have a square peeking out behind the Label 3 matte. And (just in...

Speaking of the Hearts Bloom kit, I needed a Birthday card and decided to use some papers from the kit to make a quick “heartfelt” card. The stamp is from the Penny Black Critter Party Clear set. Its colored with...
