Taking a break from all the sweltering heat this week and hankering to get a couple cards done with some of my new toys. . . hope you enjoy this one.       Wild Wasabi and Whisper White Cardstocks, Delicate Dollies Sizzlits and Finishing Touches Edgelits a bit of Summer Silhouettes stamping and topping everything off with some Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon.   &nbsp

A very happy Friday to ALL!  I hope your week has been good and your weekend is going to be even better!  *smiles* I made this card a while back and was getting ready to mail it out when it happened to dawn on me that I never posted it.  I hope you like it.         I have this thing sometimes about everything going in the same direction.  In

Yes, alive and still kickin’ *smiles*.  I have no excuses and no idea where time goes.  But I can tell you time sure does fly……especially when you’re having fun!  It’s been one thing after another, yard work, revamping my stamp room, a beach vacation and even working in a little exercise.  I banned the computer altogether and found out just how much time I was spending on it……

Good Morning all and a very happy Wednesday to you. I have a friend who needed a sympathy card and wanted to reflect her love of roosters.  This is what I came up with…         I first began by snipping out the frame from a sheet of the designer paper and mounting it as if it were an easel; hence the ribbon for the easel legs.  For some reason the

You probably have never noticed, but I don’t usually do a lot with squares.  But I liked how this one turned out.           Using your scoring board, a diamond effect worked perfect with the mounting of SU! square punches.  Little leaves and Boho Blossom punch provided the accents.  A case of clean and simple on a one layer card.

I’ve always liked this stamp set, but would refrain from using it for one reason or another.  Last week I stepped up to the challenge and decided to use it.          I’m thinking the thing that bother me the most was the fact that the small butterflies were in a straight line and as one stamp….not sure about you, but I have never seen butterflies fly

A while back, before I ever began blogging, there were a few blogs that that I would visit everyday.  I would never leave a comment – had no idea how to do it!  I cased this card from one of those blogs sometime back – Paper Punch Addiction with the very talented Kim Score.  Thank you Kim for all the inspiration that you give bloggers and stampers every day with your amazing

Remember all those rabbits at Easter…… I’m bad about mice as well.  Here’s a pair.        With a smudge to boot!  I never noticed that one.  Not only will pictures bring out the best…….they bring out the smudges too.  This card can’t be done over and I’ll not throw it away either.  I do have a daughter that love’s them with or without

Not literally of course, but as promised I’ve done a few cards this week using a little punch art mice!  I hope you enjoy them.  *smile* I chose dressing one card up and then dressing one card down ~ Here’s the up ~       It’s strawberry time here and I just couldn’t resist putting a little mouse in the works.  He was sooooo easy, a couple punches with the

We’re almost thru yet another week.  Which means another weekend is just around the corner…..YEAH! As far as I can tell, Fabulous Florets did not make the retirement list…..another big YEAH!  It’s one of my favorites.           Between this stamp set and heat embossing the Hello, Doily stamp, I could sit and make cards all day.  *smile*

Happy May to All! Have you ever purchased something, actually put it away (where it belongs) and then forget you have it?  Happens to me all the time.  I just came across this Stampin’ Up Thank You Die.  I know that I have had it a while because I can’t even remember when I bought it.  lol           I tried my hand at a little

Happy Monday to ALL!  I hope you had a great weekend, as usual they’re always too short and seem to FLY by all too quickly.   *smiles* I have really gotten into cards with score lines recently.  With the help of TomBow glue and a few card stock strips, I made these lines work for me as a lattice.  Then you know what’s next……..flowers.  lol     &

My SIL’s 40th Birthday is just around the corner and thought I better get on the stick before I forget!         OMGoodness it was a struggle!  No bows, butterflies or flowers, WHEW!  I keep thinking it needs more.  I began by wanting to make a card with a frame in the center using the Lattice EF.  I masked the sun and used a blend of Not

Can you believe it…..yes, you’re not seeing things! *smiles*  We had some much needed rain move in overnight and has resulted into a dreary wet day.  But for me that’s a good thing, I got to stamp most all day and actually get a post or two in….yeah! Today’s card is all about Carla Bazhenow (click on her name for a trip to her blog).  Carla was my inspiration in the card

I needed an Anniversary card for our Son and DIL who will be celebrating their 7th Anniversary.   Their wedding colors were Navy, Silver and White.  Hummmmm, some of my favorite colors.  I kept things clean and simple ~         A perfect opportunity to use my new heart embossing folder from SU.  Here’s another perfect match  –&

Now that Spring has definitely Sprung, I was in a flower mode.  *smile* Here is a trio of flowers made with Stampin’ Ups Floral Fusion, Simple Flower and Cherry Blossom.  Each was layered multiple times, edges sponged and then ‘all tied up’.            I love the blend of the colors:  Very Vanilla, Not Quite Navy and that wonderful

I promise!!!  This card finishes up my ‘bunny’ list for this year.  Whew, I’m so glad, I know you are.  *smiles* I wanted this bunny to wink.  I’m not sure I succeeded, but at least you can get the idea, right? lol        Looking a little closer ~      A few crystal flatbacks to the flower centers and the Easter Egg

Have you seen this card with the cute little bunny hopping to the inside, it’s just the cutest.  I wanted to make one and thought if I make it, I have to share it.  So here’s another one, hope you’re not too bored with them.           And you know that adorable ‘wabbitt’ face I have used before from Creations on Paper……here it is again,

With Easter just around the corner, I thought I’d share with you what I’ve been up to lately. I happened to find the cutest little rabbit found HERE, by this most amazing stamper.  I made a few changes here and there to best suit my needs.  I hope you enjoy them.

This crazy weather we’re having here is making me all about flowers.  At One time…..you could always count on SNOW in March not several 70 degree days in a row!  Not complaining mind you, I’m just sayin…crazy weather. Today’s card is one large flower.  I bought this stamp set just as it was to retire.  I know I’m the late bloomer while you all were probably the early bloomer
