The moose image was colored in using the Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Markers and the grass was colored in using the Garden Green Stampin’ Write Markers.

Stampin’ Up! For All Things

I absolutely love the For All Things Set Set.  It definitely is a great stamp set to use in creating fall themed cards but it can be used for all occasions also. I cased this card from one of the Stampin’ Up! Artisans (2014) but I can’t remember her name and I accidentally came across this card while searching for something else.   I could not go back and find the… Read More »

Stampin’ Up! In This Together

To stop shopping is to stop breathing!  That the sentiment for this image from the In This Together Clear Mount Stamp Set.  And I have to admit that I am a bit of a shopaholic. I bought a thinlit die that matches the stamp set from Dies by Dave.   This is so cool and I hope he continues to make more dies for our stamp sets.  He is not affiliated… Read More »
