Thanks on a Line

January 9, 2020

Hi there! Just popping in to share a fun project using the Thanks on a Line die from the latest Bestie release by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-Thanks on a Line

This card was SO easy to make and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the simple, graphic look to it. The secret to getting the layers lined up evenly is to align them with a grid mat. I used my grid mat and spaced each one 1/2″ apart to make it consistent. You could so easily customize this for many seasons and occasions by changing the colors.

I Really Miss Your Face

December 31, 2019

Hi there! I’m back with another project featuring more of the Love You More collection by Simon Says Stamp. I fell in love with this adorable kitty from the Pawsome Love stamp set.

SSS-Pawsome Love & You Are

For the background I embossed the You Are background cling stamp. For the sentiment I used on of the Cheeky Love Sentient Strips & filled the shaker with some Love You sequins.

Here’s a video to show you how I created this card.

Wishing you a wonderful New Years Eve. Thank you so much for taking time to stop by my little ol’ blog, YouTube channel or Instagram this year. I appreciate your support and kind words so very much. Here’s to a fantastic 2020 filled with lots of color and inspiration! Hugs all around:) I’d give you all a piece of chocolate if I could.

Rainbow Heart

December 30, 2019

Hi there! I’ve got a fun project to share with you featuring the Rainbow Heart die by Simon Says Stamp. This die was from the latest Love You More release. I’ve been patiently(not so patiently) waiting to get my hot little hands on this Rainbow Heart die.

SSS-Rainbow Heart die, Love & Valentines Word Mix 2

For the sentiment I used another new Love & Valentines Word Mix 2 stamp & die set. The sentiments in this set are so SUPERB & you can stamp & die cut at least eight sentiments in one shebang! Gotta love that.

Here’s a video to show you how easy it is to put this card together.

I’ve got another project using more goodies from the Love You More collection coming up tomorrow so stay tuned! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Cropped Frames

December 30, 2019

Hi there! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. It’s been so nice having the family all together for the holidays. I haven’t made a card is weeks. Today I finally cleaned my desk off and I’m playing catch up sharing these projects from my latest feature over on the Simon Says Stamp blog. I used the A2 Thin Frames along with the CZ Thank You & Proud of You. You can check out the video HERE!

SSS-A2 Thin Frames & CZ Thank You, Proud of You

There were several questions about the glue holder that I’ve been using in my latest videos. It’s from the Make it by Marko shop on Etsy. I also have Mermaid Stamp Shammy Case, which I love, too!

Hoping to make a few cards today using the latest Love You More collection. Because of the holidays it was late getting to me over here in Timbuktu. I’m excited to play with it now that I can see my desk. Here’s to hoping for a productive day:) ha! Fingers crossed! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Unicorns & Rainbows

December 18, 2019

Hi there! Just popping in with a sweet little card I made for a friend’s birthday. It was so nice to take a breather from the holiday cards and color some unicorns & rainbows:)

Lawn Fawn-A Little Sparkle & Rain or Shine

I have a serious soft spot for anything Lawn Fawn & immediately fell in love with this unicorn from the A Little Sparkle stamp set. The rainbow is from the Rain or Shine set and the scallop border is from the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frames.

Lawn Fawn-A Little Sparkle & Rain or Shine

I blended Peacock Feathers & Worn Lipstick on the background and colored the images with Copics. Sending you unicorn & rainbow hugs today:) Hope your day sparkles. Thanks so much for stopping by!
