Some of my fondest memories were at my Grandma's House, and some of the best adventures from my childhood days happened there. My family was fortunate enough to live at my Grandma's House until I was 10. She made the best homemade Italian food ever. You name it and she made it. If the saying "What happens at Grandma's....stays at Grandma's" was around back then, it would surely be said continuously.
Here are a few projects featuring both of these stamp sets.
I just love these little Grandma's.

to incorporate a feeling of calm and peacefulness.
