I love this month’s photopolymer release “Just Kidding”. It is just plain fun! It includes sentiments we can all relate to . I colored the image with Stampin’ Write Markers. Here’s the punch line… Here’s a look at the whole set, in case you missed it when it was released … Continue reading

Hooray It’s Your Day
The balloon sets in our Occasions Catalog are our button. More than any other sets, I think these lend themselves to quick and easy cards. I have been using “Celebrate Today” a lot, and today I’ve paired it with “Hooray It’s Your Day”. I used my own supplies with these … Continue reading
Hot Diggity Dog Birthday Balloon
March 7 has been a special day in our house since 1996 – it is my oldest daughter’s birthday. After 18 years of celebrating together, it will be so strange that we are not together this year. It was also strange to make her card early enough to mail 🙂 … Continue reading

I stamped “Positively Chevron” with Daffodil Delight over the specialty paper. I also added a lighter shade of Daffodil Delight with … Continue reading

Hot Diggity Dog
Here’s a card for the dog lovers on your list. These little guys (gals?) from “Hot Diggity Dog” are too cute! I used my 1″ square punch to punch out their bodies, and my retired 1 1/4″ square punch for the Bermuda Bay mats. I fussy-cut the heads and mounted … Continue reading
