Welcome to our November blog hop with Global Stamping Friends! Our theme this month is circles. My card has a few circles on it, I used the Layering Circles Framelits and the Tin Tile Embossing Folder that has circle patterns. And because it's November with Remembrance Day coming I choose Poppy Parade for my flowers.


Next week is Stampin' Up!'s Onstage in Orlando, Florida! I'm so excited and almost all packed, my swaps are done and so looking forward to seeing almost 7,000 other demonstrators from around the world! Even better is that I will get to meet a few others that participate in this blog hop while at Onstage! If you would like to see pictures and updates from Onstage you can follow me on Facebook: www.facebook.com/FromWhereIStamp and Instagram: www.instagram.com/FromWhereIStamp

Thank you to everyone who spent time crafting the day away on Saturday. It was the perfect day to hide inside while rain/sleet/snow fell! This month's crop was in support of Ronald MacDonald House Charities.

I am in love with this Black Ice Technique! And that you can colour in the images using the Stampin' Blends. Amazing what you can make using a piece of foil paper, clear embossing powder and some ink! This technique was taught at our Fall Weekend Retreat in September.
