Pinwheel card

No excuses!  It has been a month since my last post!  Here is a fun card I made with the Sizzlits S Die that makes a little pinwheel fast and easy!
Add a brad in the center and you are ready to spin!  The Die is in our Spring catalog and sells for only $4.95!  Add a little toothpick and now it is on a
stick.  Soo many uses for it. 

It is less than a week and the new Stampin' Up catalog will be available and online!  Don't forget to check out the Retired lists that are posted online.  Once
those items are gone, they are gone!

Get well soon!

Hi Everyone!  This week's project had me thinking Get Well cards which I didn't have any of.  
I recently purchased the Stampin' Up stamp set "Thoughts & Prayers" because I also needed a few sympathy cards to have on hand.   This two box set includes eight stamps, two which are in my card above, for $25.95 (wood) or $18.95 (clear).

In this card I used the Pear Pizzazz ink color which was an In Color and is returning in our upcoming new catalog as a Subtles color.  I used my Oval Framelits collection to do the layering and added a ribbon on the bottom for more background.  I also added some little pearls to the tree which I thought really gave it some life!

  All these wonderful products can be purchased from my website by clicking on the above button to the right.  The new Stampin' Up catalog will be coming out May 31st with new ideas and inspiration for all of us who love to stamp!  Stay tuned for more information.

Sorry it has been so long but with working seven days a week, I find I don't has as much time as I would like to make cards!  Wanting to get something online, I took the opportunity to post one of the 'simply' cards I just made for some friends.  They were looking for cards that they could use for many occasions.

I recently purchased one of the single stamps that Stampin' Up offers.  This one, Hello, Hello is a great one for those occasions when you want to send a note to someone or when you have to mail someone something and you want to include a card.  I did this card in Elegant Eggplant, a dark purple.  I also made cards in Calypso Coral and Island Indigo. 

I hope to have more posted this week.  Stand by!  I promise to do better!

Sunshine


This week end has been wonderful!  The sun has been out and maybe Spring is really here! This inspired me to bring out my 'Feel Goods' stamp set which includes the above stamp.  I thought it made a wonderful match for this designer paper and the Summer Starfruit  'In Color' Inks.  I wanted to keep it simple so the added ribbon and bow finished off the card nicely.

The 'Feel Goods' stamp set is from our Spring Catalog and has a total of  five stamps with wonderful sayings such as the one above.  Check them out on my website by clicking on the 'Shop Online Now' button the the right.   Check out the whole line of Stampin' Up products and consider joining our group of demonstrators.  Just the discount on your purchases makes it worth it and you can stop at any time!  

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you had a wonderful Easter!

Kindness


I just love the Heard from the Heart stamp set which includes the above stamp!  When I started this card I didn't have a plan to what it would look like and I just kept going.

 I really like the print poetry pack which comes with 48 two sided prints.  They are approx 5x7 and are easy to cut down for a card front.  I have to say that I am really liking the Summer Starfruit color which is one of Stampin' Up's In Colors.  The green paper is also from the print poetry pack!  
I added in a little ribbon to bring out the Raspberry Ripple in the designer paper.  

Whenever I use this stamp set with the flowing lines I have to add some brads at the ends.
I hoped you enjoyed the card as much as I enjoyed making it!  
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy day to you!

I thought this stamp was so cute that I added a sentiment and made another card with it!  This card definitely lives up to 'simply'.  I used some of the designer paper from Sycamore Street in my favorite Calypso Coral to layer the card.  I then added the sentiment "happy day to you" below the girl and used the Framelits Oval Collection to cut them out with my Big Shot.    I added a pretty ribbon and bow and viola, a simply beautiful card!

Stampin' Up really takes the difficulty out of making cards.  Take a moment to check out our catalog.  Once you try out a couple of our stamps and punches, you will realize how simple it really can be to make the most beautiful cards.
