The challenge this week at GOTHIC ARCHES is "HISTORY", I began to ponder what has impacted life and put into fast forward. Recently the computer as had a major impact on ourlives; just over 100 years ago the motor car was invented.
HORSELESS CARRIAGES "Motor cars have had a tremendous effect on the way of life. Travel is no longer limited. The work is a smaller place."

My friend Kris is hosting a monthly ATC Swap at StampinD'Amour... we need a few more people to join our group.... if you love making/swaping ATC's as much as I do this may be the opportunity you are looking for.
Qualifications: Desire to join others in ATC SWAP. Required: only 9 ATC's each month Benefits: Lovely works of art will arrive in your mail each month.
I had a BRAIN BLOCK when I first read that the challenge was a bookmark.... Then it hit me... what is a bookmark for? READING!!! Reading can mean so many different things to everyone.... then the creativity started flying in my room... here is my submission for this week's Wednesday Stamper challenge!!! Besure to check out all the other awesome bookmarks at Wednesday Stamper http://wednesdaystamper.wordpress.com/2008/02/20/bookmarks/
On ScrapSpace there are 12 of us participating in a Swap... after we send our 60 cards in, 5 recipes each x 12, we will get them back bound... I am not sure how they will be bound... can't wait to see the final product!!!! I kept all my pages flat, not lumpy embelies,

HAPPY VALENTINES One of my favorite things to do besides stamping & scrapping is HUNTING! Now don't get the wrong impression I don't hunt for game... I am always on the look out for anything vintage that I might be able to use in my projects. Here are a few of the Valentines I picked up last weekend!!!!
