Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project using the Sketched Flowers stamp set.
I stamped the floral image with Memento ink and colored it with Copics. Then I took a white gelly roll pen and added some highlights along with a few flicks of licorice liquid watercolor.
For the sentiment I embossed the “happy birthday” from Beautiful Flowers and die cut using one of the Nested Banner dies. For embellishments I used a few jewels in coordinating colors.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hey there! Today I have a fun project to share where I experimented with the Distress Oxide Sprays. These are so much fun to used, although I have MUCH to learn! Once I sprayed the background with Mermaid Lagoon & Cracked Pistachio I turned it into a card using the hearts from Ornate Love, a sentiment from Everyday Words on a Line & Tiny Words. I also added a few gorgeous Studio Katia sequins.
Here’s a short little video to show you how I created this card.
Hope you have a wonderful day! Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hello! I’m back again today sharing this fun project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog featuring the Deco Heart dies and the CZ Hello You stamp & die for the sentiment.

Hi there! Have you seen the awesome new March 2019 Card Kit, Lucky Rainbow? It is right up my rainbowlicious alley!!!
My first card features the Amazing stamp set included in the kit. I am so giddy about this card because it’s been far to long since I’ve made a one-layer wonder, and I gotta say, it feels darn good.
I used Mama Elephant pigment inks for this, keeping it very clean and simple and stamping a bold black sentiment from the Amazing set.
This next card features the adorable Wooly Lucky stamp set.
I created a shaker card using a Nested Circle die and filled it with some of the fun Lucky Charmz included in the kit. I also used some of the fun Really Rainbow Scallops pattern paper.
Check out the Simon Says Stamp blog for more inspiration using this Lucky Rainbow Card Kit. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hi there! Today I’m sharing another lovey dovey project using the heart outline stamp from Love Always.
I stamped that one single outline heart, well let’s see, at least 45 times to make this particular card. That’s not counting all the mistakes. It took a few tries to get the spacing right, but it was all worth it in the end. And you know what else? I didn’t use a MISTI(gasp). It was quicker to just eyeball it rather than reposition the stamp or cardbase each time. I used some yummy Simon Says Stamp inks in: Doll Pink, Hot Lips, Rosie Cheeks, Melon & Lemon Chiffon.
For the simple block sentiment I die cut solid colored cardstock in Doll Pink, Lipstick Red, Guava & Orange Peel with the Ornate Love dies.
We are on snow day number two over here, and it is perfect for skating. Pot Pies are in the oven and the fire is crackin’.
Wishing you a wonderful day! Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hi there! Today I have a project to share featuring the adorable Lovable Sloth die by Simon Says Stamp.
Not that the sloth needed any help in the lovable department, but I feel like I might have just made him cuter with a torso, hahaha! I used the torso from the Picture Book Gorilla die and created a window frame using one of the Simple Rectangle dies.
For the sentiment I used the Love You dies as well as a coordinating embossed sentiment from Love You Like by the one and only Cathy Zielske. Only she could come up with a sentiment of such perfection as “love you like free wifi”:) The background pattern paper is by Lawn Fawn.
Today I saw jelly beans at the grocery store. I let out a silent yell of protest on the inside. I just can’t with the Easter yet. It is a full blown snow day here in Illinois at -10°. Hubby just brought the kids in from ice skating on the pond. He’s living his best life today. Wishing you a fantastic day with all the free wifi, chocolate and crafty fun:) Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hi there! Today I’m sharing this fun project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog featuring lots of fun Picture Book Lion, Zebra & Giraffe dies as well as the Friend Outline die. I apologize that I used an older rainbow die by Simon Says Stamp that I can’t seem to find in the shop anymore on this card, BUT there are many other rainbow dies that could work just as well for this. I linked the other options in my supply list at the end of this post.
Check out the full project & video over on the Simon Says Stamp blog.

Hi there! Have you seen the latest Limited Edition Valentines 2019 Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp? It’s super fun and perfect for all your love themed projects.
I’ve created a couple of projects using the kit. First up are these cutie patootie little valentines. The sweet hedgehogs are from The Sweetest stamp set included in the kit. I popped them up onto some Pebbles pattern paper and added a sentiment from the Love Notes stamp set. Also included in the kit are the cute little mini envelopes in Schoolhouse Red & White.
This next card uses some of the fun Ephemera by Pebbles. I paired two sweet foxes and added one of the Tim Holtz Idea-ology Gumdrop Hearts to the girl fox. I love, love these gumdrop hearts and feel like I might need a lifetime supply.
I used some more of the Pebbles pattern paper and added an embossed sentiment from the Love Notes stamp set.
I did a fun reveal video walking through the contents of this kit over on the Simon Says Stamp blog. Head over there to more about this Limited Edition Valentines 2019 Card Kit. Thanks so much for stopping by!

My project features the Heart Layers Stencils. I used distress inks in Picked Raspberry, Worn Lipstick, Candied Apple, Spiced Marmalade, Wild Honey & Wilted Violet.
For the sentiment I used the Ornate Love dies for the “LOVE” and blended each letter using the same distress inks. I embossed the “you” using the Ornate Love stamp set. To finish it off I added some Sparkling Clear Sequins.

Hi there! Hope you all had a wonderful time celebrating the new year. I actually rang in the new year on an airplane flying somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean. We had a quick stop in Dublin, Ireland and then onto Germany where we are visiting our oldest son who is living there this year playing hockey.
I am struggling with the time change, BUT so very happy to see my boy💗He is doing great, by the way, and we have been enjoying all the delicious food and wonderful culture.
Today I’m sharing this project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog featuring the All My Heart Stencil & So Loved stamp set. I die cut the sentiment using one of the Nested Hearts dies and blended the background with distress inks, adding translucent embossing paste for the shine. This could be a great card for Valentine’s Day, but could easily work all year long. Head over to the Simon Says Stamp blog to see the video. Thanks so much for stopping by!
