New Blog

Hi, everyone!  I know it has been FOREVER since I posted on here, but it's because I have another blog that I've been doing all my posting on.  I probably won't be doing as many updates over here, if any at all, at least not for now.  I'd love it if you would come visit me at my other blog!

Hope to see you over there!!!  :)

Happy Retirement

Hi everyone!  I wanted to share this retirement card I made using the new Aviary stamp set.  I stamped three of the birdcages in Early Espresso ink and then stamped the tallest one separately so I could cut it out and pop it up on Dimensionals.  I then layered it onto Blushing Bride and Peach Parfait card stock and then added a piece of Pear Pizazz ribbon.  Then all of that was added onto an Early Espresso card base.  I stamped one of the birds outside of its cage, like it was free, to go with the whole retirement thing, lol.  I added some hearts coming from the free bird and the Happy Retirement sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  I then finished it off with some faux stitching.
Thanks for looking!  :)

Cute by the inch!

Hi everyone!  I wanted to share a card with you that I made using Cute by the Inch, which is a Level 2 Hostess Set in the new catalog.  The card base is 4 1/4" x 4 1/4".  I love square cards, but they cost more to mail if mailed in a square envelope.  That's why I like to make them 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" so they still fit into a regular A2 sized envelope, but don't cost any extra to send.  I stamped the base with the Wood Grain Background Stamp and then stamped the top layer lightly with the En Francais Background Stamp.  After I stamped the images I wanted, I cut them out by hand with a pair of scissors and arranged them on the card front along with 3 buttons.  I also stamped a few of the images twice and then cut out some accents to pop up with Dimensionals for some added interest.
Thanks for looking!  :)

Welcome!

Hi everyone!  I just wanted to share a card I made for my new downline.  I used the Rough Type Alpha for the letters and circles around the letters and then punched them out with the 3/4" Circle Punch.  I used the Scallop Trim Border Punch for the scallops at the bottom.  For the flowers I used the XL Fancy Flower Punch and the Boho Blossoms Punch.  I finished it off with some inking around the letters, flowers, and card base along with some faux stitching. Thanks for looking!  :)

You're never more than a thought away.

Hi everyone!  I wanted to share a card I made to kick off the new catalog, woohoo!
I used Awash with Flowers for the stems, Whimsical Words (retired SAB set), and the mini background stamp, Dot, Dot, Dot.

Here are some more pictures:

Here's the poem I wrote for the inside of the card:
I came across a ghost one night
Just wandering around,
I thought it would be funny
To turn this trick around.

I snuck up right behind him
And shouted a startling "BOO!"
He ran away, but not before
Leaving a little ghost poo!

I brought it back just for you
So, please share with your mummy
But, don't judge it before you try it
Because it is extremely yummy!
