But I do have quite a few still left to share with you from my 2017 February Paper Pumpkin Many Happy Birthdays kit. When I first got the kit, I loved the colors but wasn’t sure how I would use the slider cards. I need birthday and thank you cards, but didn’t need party invitations […]
Annual Catalog
I know, I know. I said I would…
…show you more of my Paper Pumpkin alternatives today, but I just had to share this goodie! Aren’t these boxes just too, too cute??!! Can you believe you can make them using the Gift Box Punch board? The sad news is that the board is on the retired list (oh no!). But, there’s good news…you can get it on sale for […]
Sigh, the sun is setting…on some Stampin’ Up! products
It’s that time of year when the list of Stampin’ Up! retiring stamps and products come out. It is so sad to see some of my favorite items disappear. The good news…some of them are on sale up to 50 off! Be sure to check the lists and place your order before the sun sets on these items May 31! This is […]
A frustrating couple of weeks…
The last several weeks have been nerve wracking for my family and me. We are dealing with not one, not two, but three family members with major medical issues – UGH!! Two of them require my attention and management, the third one I wish I could do more than just sympathize. Needless to say, keeping up with doctors’ […]
Thank you for everything…again
Tomorrow is the last day of Sale-A-Bration and I wanted to say thank your for everything and more to those of you who placed an order with me! I hope you are enjoying your stamp sets, inks, papers and all those wonderful embellishments you got! So today’s card is a special virtual thank you card […]
It’s black & white with a sparkle of gold!
As you know, I love monochromatic cards with a pop, Night of Navy & Whisper White, Basic Black & Whisper White or even a Basic Gray and Whisper White. Then you choose the color “pop”; it could be Real Red, Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, or any of a number of gorgeous Stampin’ Up! […]
Thank you kindly – another dramatic color scheme
I’m using one of the black & white sides from the Pop of Pink specialty DSP. But you know I had to sneak in a little Melon Mambo accent, didn’t you?! This time, it’s a little more subtle than yesterday’s card (if you missed it, see it here). The greeting stamp size really is the […]
A fun Pop of Pink thank you
As you know by now if you follow my blog, I love pink, black and white cards! And Stampin’ Up!’s Melon Mambo, Basic Black and Whisper White colors are one of my all time favorite combinations! You can see other cards I’ve made with this combination of colors here and here! For today’s card I returned to a […]
Easter bunnies, and a lot more ideas!
It’s officially spring and who doesn’t love spring time? Well, maybe not the time change we had several weeks ago, and the snow some of you still have on the ground. But blooming flowers, green trees, sprouting plants, Easter bunnies, and candy, it’s such a lovely time of year. In keeping with the Easter bunny & treats theme, […]
