Happy Birthday Stephanie with a Fun Fold Card

Today’s card is for my daughter, Stephanie’s, birthday. She is an avid reader like me and I thought that the In the Moment Stamp Set would be a perfect birthday card for her. The images include 3 women relaxing by looking at the landscape with a glass of wine , one looking out the window, or (my favorite) reading with their furry friend. I finally used up all the Pansy… Read More »

Miss You by Peekaboo Farm Cuties!

I had so much fun making this card! I love the cute, adorable farm animals in the Peekaboo Farm Stamp Set. You can create so many cute cards – choose from a cow, pig, horse, and more! Though it does have a stone fence stamp in the set, I used the Picture This Die so that the cuties are peeking out! The images were stamped with Tuxedo Black Ink onto… Read More »

Batter Up with Pansy Patch!

Today’s card was created with the Hat Builder Dies. I don’t wear baseball caps but if I was going to wear one, then it would have to have flowers on it! I paired it with the Pansy Patch Stamp Set and the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper to add a bit of elegance and floral to the cap. The background was embossed with the retired Painted Texture Embossing Folder and… Read More »

New Horizons and Good Friday

Today’s card features the New Horizons Designer Series Paper and was inspired on a card I saw on Facebook. I used the same package of DSP but a different sheet. The sentiment and crosses are computer generated. Did you know that this awesome DSP is retiring on 2 May? Thanks for stopping by today – have a great weekend.

If you like to fussy cut, this is the stamp set for you!

They were then colored in using the following Stampin’ Blends: Light Pool Party for the upper… Read More »

Hand-Penned Petals for a Happy Birthday

Today’s card features the gorgeous Hand-Penned Petals Bundle. The stamp set features beautifully drawn floral images and coordinating fill stamps that give the design an effortless watercolored look I did something a little different with this card – did a zig-zag stitch to anchor both pieces of the DSP together. Sewing on cards was very popular a couple of years ago and I even had a small inexpensive craft sewing… Read More »
