    Hello Michelle,

    I’ve only recently begun stamping, but since I’ve discovered your blog, it’s been truly inspiring! I keep looking at your blog and thinking “I wish I could have thought of that.” but now I am branching out and trying to come up with more ways to get the most out of my inks and stamps. Keep up the wonderful work!

  33. Ann C.on 14 Nov 2008 at 10:34 am

    Hi Michelle! I hope you have a great time with your sister! I have to tell you that I made a card last night with a moon, trees, shadows, etc….all “Zindorf” techniques…and it turned out GREAT! Thanks for all your inspiration!

  34. Susanon 14 Nov 2008 at 10:44 am

  36. Gidget-Trishon 14 Nov 2008 at 10:50 am

    I love this bookmark. I make bookmarks to give to people so they have something they can use instead of throwing out a card. I also love birds so this bookmark is defintitely for me! :D Have a fabulous time with your sister and happy stamping! P.S. I taught a stampscapes class last night but I showed some of my “Zindorf” cards to the group when we had our “show and tell”. They loved them. Thanks so much.

    Enjoy the time with your sister. I had a FABULOUS time at your beginner class last Saturday. Took it with my sister and our best friend. (We were the rowdy ones in the corner!) It was great for the three of us to get away, even if it was a 3 1/2hr trip. We talked, we shopped, we ate, we played…but not necessarily in that order.
    HUGS….

When I see your cards I feel like I am literally looking at the true scene and not a card. Kudos to you. You are a master at braying. Would you consider a trip to Las Vegas for a class? LOL. I would love to see a tutorial on the bookmark if you ever have time after your sister leaves. Have fun with her……you deserve it!

    Michelle This is so precious. It’s so nice that your sister is in town and you get to spend time with her. Cherish all the moments you can. I have a sister in FL. that has MS and would give anything if I could visit with her. Sisters are such wonderful friends.

    Have a great time together!

  244. Kelleyon 14 Nov 2008 at 7:47 pm

    How nice are you. Always thinking of your fan club members by offering us either a tutorial or blog candy. Even when family is in town for a visit. Please include me on your beautiful book mark. I would be honored to have this marking my pages

  245. Joanon 14 Nov 2008 at 7:51 pm

    Great bookmark and would make an equally great card!!! Love it.

  246. dr.fineon 14 Nov 2008 at 7:55 pm

    Have fun stamping and visiting with your sister. Thanks for putting this lovely bookmark up as blog candy…it’s beautiful!

  247. Gillianon 14 Nov 2008 at 7:56 pm

    You certainly have a following Michelle! I really love your tutorials! The enticing blog candy is always fun too! I always hope I get randomly selected! (It would be thrilling to get a real Zindorf work of art)!!
    I read a zillion books a year, so a cool book mark would be terrific!
    I used to live in Cripple Creek, Colorado, and loved it. Mostly because it was in the mountains! The Sangre De Cristo’s are awesome! So, tell your sister “Hi!” from a fellow Colorado person!
    Thanks for doing what you do!
    Gillian

  248. Sue Mon 14 Nov 2008 at 8:04 pm

  249. Eileen Mon 14 Nov 2008 at 8:11 pm

    Oh how pretty! I would have to frame this and not use it in a book, because I seem to loose the ones I use.
    Thanks for a chance to win, and I hope you have a great time with your sister!

  260. Joyce S. Ramseyon 14 Nov 2008 at 9:42 pm

    Michelle, Your bookmark is beautiful. All of you work is so pretty. I am so close to my sisters but just can’t get them in stamping. I am so glad I learned about stamping. I have a Birthday Card Ministry that I just love. I send out 225-275 cards every quarter to eleven different locations. I send them to children homes, nursing homes, assisted living and veteran homes. By learning to stamp, this help me to start my Birhday Card Ministry. Joyce
