One of my favorite stamp sets in this year’s Sale-A-Bration line up is the Designer Tee. When I saw the name I thought it would be something to do with t-shirts, not my thing. However, I was surprised and very pleased that I got this stamp set! It does coordinate with our new Custom Tee […]
Birthday cards
So in Love with another fancy paper fold card
I really liked the idea of using our Stampin’ Up! DSP as a card base to create delightful patterned cards. This is my second card using this technique (see my first one here). This time I used the Birthday Bouquet DSP with it’s beautiful soft colors for my card. One side is the beautiful camilla […]
Many Happy Birthdays with February’s Paper Pumpkin
Slider cards are such a fun, interactive way to say Happy Birthday to someone special in your life. But they may be hard to design and create if you are starting from scratch.

Birthday Banners – a new stamp set for me!
Finally…a birthday card using something other than my favorite Balloon Adventures stamp set! Today’s cards are based on Jeanna Bohanon’s interpretation of last week’s tgifc94 layout.

Although I didn’t get today’s card posted in time for the challenge, it’s up there as one of my favorites. Why? Because it is Black & White with a pop Melon Mambo, one my all time favorite […]

But let’s get back to today’s card. I really liked the FMS274 for last week, so much so I […]
Confetti birthday celebration with FabFri105!
More circles, more Party Animal DSP, and confetti for another birthday card! A lot of stuff all in one simple to make birthday card for my FabFri105 challenge card. I’ve had my Confetti embossing folder for a while now, and in fact I forgot I had it and ordered another…sigh…so now I have 2. I’ll have […]
