We have a new challenge at Shopping Our Stash....I Don't Really Need Another One/True Confessions from the Design Team. As a Hoarder I mean Crafter everything can become an obsession, and it goes in stages, first for me was Snowmen stamps next it was Butterflies, I couldn't resist a butterfly stamp or die or both but my real problem is House Mouse designs. I have been collecting and using House Mouse, Happy Hoppers and Gruffies for 25 years. I have a lot of woodblock stamps dating from 1999, I have many, many cling mount stamps as well and a few clear ones too I also have stickers. I really have no idea of how many I really have and do I really want to know?

It's Rudolph Days for August!!!
I have been spending some time at the cottage and quite often, okay very often have forgotten supplies, usually sentiments but it's a nice change of scenery and October will come too soon. Since I brought my new 3D embossing folder and a Christmas die I needed to take the folder for a test drive. (need a shim), I often grab a bunch of scraps from the desk to add to the collection I have here. So here is the finished very simple card.
The Spirit of Christmas Past ~~ A Jingle Belles Story
Finally I managed to get a card done for the Jingle Belles Christmas Challenge, I just love their prompts every 2 weeks although sometimes I just don't "get 'er done". Finally I had the opportunity to have a longer stay at the lake but with the longer time you need more "stuff" I only have so many duplicates, but I remembered my tonic cutter this week. I said to myself as I was packing don't forget the vanilla cardstock, and I did, so it was improvise time.

The Jingle Belles are serving Holiday Leftovers.
The theme at the Jingle Belles is Holiday Leftovers, not the eating kind the extras and scraps from making holiday cards and a lot of them are probably on your desk. I collected some and planned on getting busy on the weekend and technically it's still my weekend, I'm heading home in the morning.
