January exchange from Amy

I love the bubbles and the chemistry stamp - and even the balloon has a similar shape to the flasks.

Cock-a-doodle-do!

A great year of the rooster themed envelope from Nancy. She wrote that her roosters turned out a bit crazy and frantic. Well, I love mine! It may be a bit hard to see on the scan (the scanner does not enjoy metallic), but Nancy added some gold around the edges - all the colors work so well with the theme and the stamp - thanks!

January exchange birds from Smash

Lots of fun birds from Smash.

January envelope exchange - Year of the Rooster...

...chickens, and birds everywhere in my opinion!

And thanks to Candy's blog, I created some birds for my January exchange envelopes to go with the new Lunar New Year stamps. 

I *think* the watercolor bird blobs looked a little brighter in person than this photo. Regardless of how they turned out, they were fun to work on (and, in my fine arts-challenged hands, super easy to do), so I hope people enjoyed receiving them.

January envelope exchanges in from Jean and Rachael

Beautiful calligraphy and vintage stamps from Jean. The Illinois stamp is particularly nice.

Really clever rubber stamping from Rachael.
