    I love Mo Manning, Pure Innocence and Stamping Bella stamps. I am hearing impaired and could only watch the video of the little girl and her owl and was wandering whether someone could let me know where did the fence and tree come from, were they dies and what brand? Loved the card.

  62. Teresa (Smeared and Creased)September 21, 2011 at 7:18 AM

    A wonderful tutorial from Nichol - she makes it all look so effortless :) I think I would have to say Distress inks and stains since I've just received one big order of stains from SSS and have my seasonal Distress Inks on the way to me!! I think it's really hard to choose one (or two) items though because I love many things you carry - of course then there's the stamps!
