Happy Holidays

 Hey there Stampers! Happy Monday!

Today my card is a very simple one featuring the Gingerbread and Peppermint DSP for the background and the sentiment was embossed in white.

Have a fabulous day!

CASE-ING The Catalogue!

Hey there Stampers! Today as you can see above, I'm case-ing the catalogue. So what does that mean?... (Copy And Share Everything!) I took one of the samples from the July to December catalogue and re-made it. Sometimes I will take the sample as a starting point and other times I will re-create it exactly. In this case, it is pretty much the same.

This card features Shimmery White Embossing Paste, Adorning Designs stencils, Gingerbread and Peppermint Suite. Enjoy!

Wishing you a merry Christmas

 Hey there Stampers! Thanks for stopping by today!

My card today features the Gingerbread and Peppermint DSP. I cut out the mittens, and fun fact.... did you know that the star die fits the stars on the DSP... makes it so easy to cut out. For the card backgrounds, I used some Old Olive re-inker with some Rubbing Alcohol in a spritzer. And of course the Stitched Rectangle dies.

Have a fabulous day!

Gingerbread and Peppermint Pillow Box

 Hey there Stamper’s! Happy Monday!

I was playing with the new Pretty Pillow Box dies a couple of weeks ago. For this pillow box, I die cut it from the 6 x 6 Ginger bread and peppermint designer series paper. The ribbon was used as a belly band so that the flap of the pillow box can tuck right under. The bell was also cut from the DSP.

For this card I was looking through the July to December Mini Catalogue and I saw a sample card that I liked. I didn't have that particular stamp set so I substituted the Snow Wonder stamp set and dies. And I CASE'd the catalogue! This is a great way to get inspiration when needed, and sometimes although you may start out with one idea the final card may not turn out looking anything like your inspiration card. 

The snowflakes were embossed in white on the vellum and the sentiment was stamped randomly on the background. Add some sequins and voila!

Today's card features the floating strip technique with the In Good Taste DSP. This is a simple card that uses the Many Messages bundle for the sentiment and circles from the Picture This and the Layering Circle dies. I also used the Tasteful Textile embossing folder to give more texture to the front of the card. This would be perfect as a masculine card.

"Stepped up"

 Hey there Stampers! Thanks for stopping by today!

If you remember yesterday, I posted a card and promised a second card that was the same but "stepped up". Here it is! For this card, I added die cuts and some more sponging, and of course some bling!

Have a fabulous day!

Thank you

 Hey there Stampers! Thanks for stopping by today

We are still dealing with a heat wave here today, so I'm very much enjoying my air conditioned house. What are you doing to stay cool?

Today I have a card for you that I created with the Beauty of Friendship stamp set. It's a very simple card using only stamps, ink and a sponge. Stop by tomorrow and I will show you a second card that is the same but "stepped up".

Have a fabulous day!

 hey there Stampers! it's "Hump Day"!

Today's card was created with the In Good Taste DSP and the Many Messages bundle. I love this bundle because you can always have some sentiments just ready to go, which makes this card even easier.

Love Laughter and Joy

 hey there Stampers!

It is crazy how easily time gets away from you. I can't believe that it's already 3 weeks into May.

This card was one of the Stampers Club cards for last month. For this card I used the Golden Garden DSP. If you notice that the acetate is gold, just turn it over and the image is white/silver on the other side :) this gives you options! I actually used Rococo Rose cardstock on this card, but it has since retired. Any other colour that you may have will work also

Hello

 Hey there Stampers! Hope you've had a great week!

This card was inspired by Sherry and features the Many Messages Bundle. The card appears grey in the picture but is actually Seaside Spray (one of the newly retired In Colours). I love how versatile this bundle is.

Happy Father's Day

 Hey there Stampers! Happy Monday!

Today's card is one that I was working on a few weeks ago. It features the Well Suited Suite. For this card, I embossed the sentiments onto the cardstock piece using white embossing powder and added a tag and some twine. This was a very simple card for Father's Day.
