Hurry Up!

These little images are so adorable – I absolutely love them! They are from the Zany Zebras Stamp Set. I decided to make a slimline card using this set for today’s post. Measurements are 9″ x 3 3/4″ for the base card stock. The grass is from the Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set. That image was stamped with Old Olive. The greeting is computer generated. I used the retired Color Spritzer… Read More »

The Gang’s All Meer

This cute adorable stamp set (The Gang’s all Meer) was free with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration but is no longer available. It is too cute to sell or stick in some dark corner just because it’s retired. I applied Balmy Blue Inker to an acrylic block, added a little water and applied to the top part of the front panel with a retired flat watercolor brush. The bottom is… Read More »

Free as a Bird

Did you know that the Free as a Bird Stamp Set is part of a gorgeous suite? The coordinated products are awesome from the DSP to the trinkets and lace trim. The images in the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper were hand colored using Stampin’ Blends for a soft, blended look.  The Bird Ballad Suite Bundle gives you a coordinating selection of products with one simple purchase. It includes the… Read More »

Basket of Blessings

Today’s card is a Easter card. I’ve had this stamp set for a long time and thought I would bring it out and use it. I used Periennal Essence Designer Series Paper for the background and for the dress of the momma rabbit. The bunny images were colored in using the Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Combo for the bodies. The leaves were colored with the Granny Apple Green Stampin’… Read More »

Hello March

Is March coming in like a lion and going out like a lamb in your area? It’s coming in like a lamb in our neck of the woods. Either way, I am happy because Winter is leaving and Spring is almost here! I wanted a very spring looking card for the 1st day of March. I don’t have a SU stamp set that has a lamb in it so I… Read More »

Party Pandas

Did I say I was in a cutesy mode? Today’s card features the retired Party Pandas Stamp Set. I usually don’t hang onto my stamp sets after they retired but in some cases I do and this is one of them. This card was made for our team color challenge on facebook. Below are the colors to be used in the challenge. The background was created using the retired Brushstrokes… Read More »

Fable Friends Happy Spring!

The Fable Friends Stamp Set is overloaded with cuteness! Who can resist these cute animals? Don’t you want to just hug them all? I do! I must be in a cuteness mode because the last couple of cards I’ve made have been cute whimsical cards and I still have a lot of ideas whirling in my head for other cute cards. The flowers are from the retired Southern Serenade Stamp… Read More »

Koala-ty Friend

I usually do not purchase other stamp sets unless it’s because it’s for a good cause. Or I really, really, really want it! In this case, I bought the Koala-ty Friend Stamp Set from another company because 50% of their proceeds go the Australian Wildfire Relief. Other than the stamp set and the oval die cut, everything else is Stampin’ Up! The background was embossed using the Versamark Ink Pad,… Read More »

The Special Someone Stamp Set has coordinating dies called Special Days Dies. They are only available for a limited time or while supplies last. So if you don’t like to fussy cut, then this is the perfect opportunity to stock… Read More »
