I have always wished for neat handwriting, but my school reports always made mention of untidy writing (I write very quickly and I think that is to blame) and decided to go down the writing road for my hands theme.
I took a maya road chipboard coaster and covered it with some paper from Tim's Crowded Attic stack. Nt sure if you can see, but it's the page with letters!
The man's hand (stamp by Wendy) is writing a love letter to the lady in the frame (picture from a Crafty Individuals pad) and I used one of the pen nibs from the idea-ology pack, and Tim's old fashioned pen nibs stamp to invoke the seemingly forgotten time of hand written love letters! Somehow, texting just isn't the same, is it! The quote is from Wendy.
Sorry about the flash probems - it's bouncing off the silver I used for the frame but I hope you can see it ok. I'll try and take another one in daylight tomorrow.

Hello Helen. I love the way your coaster finished out. It's really very nicely done and perfectly fits this week's theme for Simon Says. Where did you get the sentiment stamp? I love it..."let what you love be what you do!" Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge. <3 Candy
