Here’s my card for this week’s MOJO481. I laid this card out with different papers, different sizes and finally had to walk away for a day because it just wasn’t working the way I envisioned it. Then yesterday, it all came together like I wanted and this is my final card! Is it a Valentine’s Day […]

Love notes for you
This past weekend I switched gears to create Valentines Day cards. My PCC228 card post yesterday, see it here, inspired today’s card. But this card uses a banner instead in the lower corner created by one of the So Detailed thinlit dies. I played around with several layout options and here’s my final version: Very simple card, but I think […]
Hugs & Kisses for PCC227
Today’s Valentines Day card uses the PCC227 challenge template and the So Detailed heart tag thinlit die as the main focus. I love Stampin’ Up!’s new Sending Love DSP paper pack! The tiny red hearts scattered across the white background was perfect as the background paper. The traditional red and white Valentines Day colors are always my favorite colors when creating “love” cards. I […]
So in Love – MOJO480
When I saw this week’s MOJO480 template, I knew I would use my Night of Navy and Whisper White Floral Boutique DSP paper. I decided to make a love card for my sweet hubby. I’m not sure if I’ll use it for his Valentines Day card or another time when I need a card from him. […]
Finally, A day to celebrate with FMS271
Yes, I said finally…read to the end and you’ll see why I titled my post this way! I decided to create another Valentines Day card with this week’s FMS271 sketch. This time I used the So in Love stamps and the So Detailed thinlit dies bundle to create a simple, elegant card. But as I looked […]
Sealed with a Kiss for FMS271
I decided it was time to switch over to create a few Valentine’s Day cards before I continue on with birthday cards. The FMS271 sketch was perfect this Valentines Day card using the Falling in Love DSP. I looked through the papers and decided to use the hearts. I laid out my card, but somehow it just […]
Balloon Adventures, shaking it up for you
This is my second post for the day, see my earlier post about my new “Bee” Rewards program here. This past week I made a lot of birthday cards and almost all used the Balloon Adventure stamp set – I love this set! Today’s card uses it again, but this time I also used the […]
Cupcakes and carousels, but where are they?
As you know, I tend to like bright colors better, so wanted to challenge myself with something else for my next birthday card creation. I pulled out my more subtle Cupcakes & Carousels paper stack to find a paper for my next card and was surprised to see no cupcakes and only one carousel in the whole group. […]
Party with Balloon Adventures – SGGW-wc
I’m having another great weekend creating birthday cards in my craft room (even better that it’s a long, holiday weekend!). Continuing on my mission to create lots of birthday cards, I used Connie Stewart’s Facebook SGGW weekend challenge to create 2 cards. The first one is a simpler version with just paper and stamping, although I did […]
