Hey sistahs.. I hope you are enjoying “the show”! LOL.. I am having so much fun and LOVE all the comments.. I read every single one and so does my daughter Jayden.. LOL.. she says “any comments today mom?”.. and I show her my phone and she goes WOOOOOW mom.. people really love you :)… and I say yes they do! and she quickly says “not as much as I do…” and I say OF COURSE NOT! Then she feels good again and proceeds to hum or sing 🙂 LOL
So part of my whole mantra, stamp line, creative process, design ideas all stem somehow from my childhood… Either I have a memory .. or things I wished I did as a child..they all come through in my stamps (My artists understand me so well and are so open to some of my crazy ideas).. the characters can be based on relatives I have (think SENIORITA WANDA LOL).. people I have met throughout my life.. or actually some of the characters are who I would like to be.. So each image worked on with my artists stem from the heart.. and when I hear my sistahs saying “OH SHE REMINDS ME OF..”.. or “OMG that is SOOOO ME”.. or “OH I USED TO DO THAT TOOO”.. it makes my heart sing and makes my little stamp company continue. Really. I want all my stamps to be “relate-able”.. Some images are just good solid generic images (which you will see soon).. but some just pull at my heart strings. The one I am showing you today does JUST that to me.. Every time I look at them. And the quote I paired with them? OMG.. makes me cry. Winnie the pooh is my favorite EVER.. my mom used to read it to me all the time. That simple bear was such a complex little one.
Ok enough blabla cuz I can go on and on LOL
Meet PAIGE and PEGGY Pour some tea
I ALWAYS had little tea parties when I was a little girl LOL.. And I ALWAYS had special guests… My little best friend if she was available and if she wasn’t.. I always had a reliable stand-in.. please see the middle guest in this image LOL. I want to have another tea party.. with little chairs and my besties.. and I wanna share secrets and giggle.
I SO hope you enjoy this image as much as I do 🙂
The image was coloured in by our very own Elaineabella
And here are some sample cards bringing them to life
I am sooo sorry sistahs to bore you with my little stories and anecdotes but I need to share LOL.. Ryan tunes me out when he hears me ranting about tea parties and teddy bears LOL.

Oh this one gives me fond memories as well – of tea parties with my dolls (Wendy Walker and Mrs. Beasley – anyone else remember them?) in my playroom before my siblings came along and my play room became a bedroom. That was WAY too many years to count….way too many.

LOVE this stamp & the quote to go with it is just AWESOME!!!!
When I was a little girl we used to have tea parties with all my cousins (10-12) of us at a time and dress up…guys in suits and girls in whatever finery we could get our hands on…it was so much fun. Now as an adult, I have a few friends that do like tea like I do and we get together once in a while to have a cup and a chat…I love this immie…just perfect!!
Wow! I so love this stamp set and they are very cute! Reminds me of my friend when we used to sneak out and get some tea 🙂
This stamp set is SOOOOOOO cute and darling! Love that they are having tea together.

Love the stamps and the little stories! Please keep them coming.
OMG! That really *is* me! lol. Seriously, my parents nick-named me Pooh when I was a toddler because I loved him so much. And the name has stuck, because they still use it now, lol.
GORGEOUS stamp, and best sentiment EVAH! x
Bear has been my nickname for (how many years)..I think Pooh and I share the same birthday! This stamp is absolutely perfect for me to send my friends a just because card.
Those stamps are SO VERY NICE. I love every one of them. Your ideas and inspiration are super gifts, and you use them well. I look forward to the next ‘sneak peek’.
