The special stamp set we have for you this month is:
"Dino News"
The mini stamp set we have for you this month is

Lotus Blossoms is such a beautiful stamp set that showcasing it with easel cards just
seemed the right way to go.  Oh yes, did I mention the theme for this month is easel cards!  regular easels,
twisted easels, shape easels and more!  Let's get started with a lighted twisted easel card then we will move on to a 4-way twisted easel card! The best part about this 4-way twisted easel card is I shrunk it so it will fit in a medium envelope...no extra postage. Today is just going to be twisted all the way around. 
Next stop is Marilynn so please see what she has to show you.

Looks as if you really had fun with those easel cards. They are really wonderful. I don't always make cards like easels because a lot of my cards go into shops and the easel would have to be explained, LOL. A lot of fancy fold cards are like that. I love them but they might not translate well in the card rack. TFS!
