Card for Andrew

I'm still playing with my "My Digital Studio".  It is so much fun!  I'll have something for you tomorrow (I hope!). Today's card is for my husband's grandson Andrew.  The background DSP is such an unlikely choice for a teenager but after seeing Sandy MacIvers' card on SCS, I knew that I would use the same thing.  It reminds me of a spot light shinning down on the guitar player. … Read More »

Happy Everything

Today's post includes a card that was very easy and quick to make.  I used the new Autumn Traditions Designer Series Paper.  I love the colors in it, especially Elegant Eggplant.  Today's card doesn't include that color because I wanted to keep it masculine and most men would not want a birthday card that had purple in it! I stamped Happy Birthday (using the stamp-a-ma-jig, of course) on Sahara Sand… Read More »

Get Well Soon

It's time for another masculine card and I decided to use sketch SSC110 from Stamping411  for today's post. Here's my card  I used both Soft Summer which didn't make it into the catalog :-(  and Sincere Salutations.   I used Nouveau Chic Designer Series Paper for the background and added a touch of red around the main image to give it a pop! Thanks for visiting! To Order any of these… Read More »

Birthday Wishes

It's time for another masculine card!  Today's card uses the To the Nines DSP and the sentiment Best Wishes from the Sincere Salutation Stamp Set.  I've have used the sentiments from this stamp sets over and over again.  It is such a versatile stamp set.  It can be used for either female or male cards.   I'm working on the cards for the Late Night Stampers Blog Tour.  Hope you… Read More »

This is it!

This is it!  My last card of the 2009 Spring Summer Idea Book & Catalog.  This stamp is also retiring along with the DSP which is Sweet Slumber Specialty. I've announced the winner of my blog candy in the previous post.  It's Jessica Kerr so if you know her, let her know.  Also, I have some more blog candy (see top of page) to celebrate that my site has been viewed 5,000 in… Read More »

Pocket Silhouettes – Man’s Style

This card is from one of the cards for stamp camp held on Wednesday, 24 June 2009.  I always try to have at least one new item/accessory at each stamp camp.  This time is was using the crop-a-dile and jumbo eyelets.  The card was inspired by one from Mary Fish of Stampin' Pretty.  She makes the most amazing masculine cards!  Thanks for visiting!

Look Ma – no stamps!

Today's post includes a simple card I made in less than ten minutes.  The DSP is from Urban Oasis which is retiring 30 June.  No stamping is involved and it only has one layer.  The sentiment was computer generated. Though you can't see it,  I ran Kraft craft card stock through the Top Note Die and adhered it to the inside.  Thanks for visiting! To order 24/7 click here Recipe:… Read More »

It’s Grad Time

I made a card for my grandson last week but used the wrong school colors.  I used red & white (my old high school colors) instead of blue and white.  I must have been having a "Bella Vista Moment!" as we are fond of saying around here. Here's his card Again, I am using the Great Grads Stamp Set which is retiring the end of this month.  Too bad because… Read More »

Great Grads

Today's card is for my grandson, Tanner.  I cannot believe he is graduating from the eighth grade and will be in high school next year.  Time flies by so fast! This is one of the stamp sets that will be retiring this year.   If you have been wanting this set and have not gotten around to purchasing it, now is the time to do it! The paper  I used for this… Read More »
