Traveler Birthday


I needed to think masculine for a while since I had been playing with so many flower and butterfly sets lately.  This is the fourth card for card class this coming week!  I have been hoarding my Typeset DSP and thought it was time to pull some out.  I did use the lines from Gorgeous grunge to make a background on the Crumb Cake!  Fun to try a new look and will use it again!
I hope you enjoy your weekend!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Sunshine!


I loved the Petal Potpourri because in the catalog SU! used the lace flower to make a doily effect like I did on this card and I could not wait to try it. I like how the yellow pops with the white and grays.  I used the round dot from the set to make the bottom background. I used the word Sunshine from Crazy About You stamp set which I knew I would get.  But I was not sure about the Hello You thinlits dies they bundled the set with.  But I have seen so many cute things using them that I broke down and glad I did!
Thanks for stopping by today!  Hope you have a blessed Friday!  
I am off today to Tallahassee to see my college girl for a few days.  I can't wait to hang with her!

PPA238 Something Lacy Wishes

My first time playing with the new background stamp called Something Lacy!  Love it!  I stamped on Pink Pirouette with Basic Gray ink. I added two butterflies cut out- one in Rose Red and the other in Basic Gray to give a layered shadow look!
I hope you have a lovely Thursday and join the Pals color challenge this week!

To Be Thankful

Playing with the Best year Ever DSP and new SAB set called You Brighten My Day!  I really like how this set has images that have matching punches and so made this sentiment and tag center stage on the card!
I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday and thanks for stopping by!

Amazing Card Front




Another quick card front from swap cards from SU! leadership conference last week!  I used my brayer to ink the Irresistibly Yours DSP in Perfect Plum.  I also got to ink up my new Painted Petals set.  Love it!  I will have to make some cards soon with this set!

Enjoy Mini Treat Bag

Last day of treat bags!  This one is a gusseted bag so can hold more stuff or chocolate!  I have a few shots of the bag below so you can see the additions.  I found the instructionas and video over at Kay Kalthoff's blog at stampingtoshare.com.
I love how she does simple things, with simple instructions and makes a good video, too!
Enjoy your day! 

Thanks for stopping by!
