Hi Everyone, I adore Concord & 9th's Turnabout stamps and how quick and easy they make beautiful background patterns for cards. So, I had to snatch up Concord & 9th's Butterfly Love Turnabout stamp - I mean, butterflies, yes please! Background To start, I stamped Butterfly Love onto Neenah Solar White, 80 lb, cardstock using Lawn Fawn's Peachy Keen, Gina K. Designs Innocent Pink and Lovely Lavender, and Simon Says Stamp Steel Blue inks. I love these pretty ink colors ...
Hi Everyone, One of my favorite stamp companies is Hello Bluebird - I just love their adorable images and wonderful dies! Every release is like Christmas morning to me! Today, I wanted to use Hello Bluebird's Maverick stamp set which I've had in my stash for awhile. Well, to tell the truth, I colored these images last year but I just couldn't come up with a card design I like using them...until now! Images I started by stamping the adorable dog and plane from the Maverick stamp set onto ...
Hi Everyone, I really enjoy Whimsy Stamps and their many adorable stamp sets as well as really awesome dies but some of my favorite stamps sets are their beautiful mermaid sets. I absolutely love Whimsy Stamps' Let's Be Mermaids stamp set but a few of my other favorites include Elania, Mermaid Escape, and Mermaid Birthday. Images I started by stamping the images from Let's Be Mermaids onto Strathmore's Bristol Smooth cardstock using VersaFine Clair's Nocturne ink and then embossed them with ...
Hi Everyone, Well, it's no shock that I love floral stamps and Sunny Studio's Everything's Rosy stamp set is one of the prettiest for creating realistic and beautiful roses in a snap. Here are a few links to other floral cards I've made so far this year Pinkfresh Studio's Lovely Blossoms, Sunny Studio's Pink Peonies, and Altenew's Dainty Bouquet. Images To create these beautiful roses I stamped the buds from Everything's Rosy with the help of my MISTI using Altenew's Pink ...
Hi Everyone, Today's card features a whole lot of first...my first slimline card, my first slider card, my first time using Lawn Fawn's Chunky Glitter. In May when Lawn Fawn released its Large Slimline with Sliders dies I had to snatch them up. I'm so excited to use these awesome dies and for my first card I thought it would be fun to pull out the oldie but goodie Lawn Fawn's Plane and Simple stamp set. Images To start, I stamped some of the images from Plane and Simple onto Neenah Solar ...
Hi Everyone, If you also love floral stamps then I highly recommend checking out The Ton - they have so many beautiful stamps!

Hi Everyone, Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, it rains a LOT throughout the spring which doesn't really end until July, or at least you can't really count on consistent sunshine until then. That combined with many happy family parties centered around the 4th of July has made it my favorite holiday. So, when I saw Taylored Expressions' Fireworks Stamp and Stencil Combo I was too excited not to snap it up. About the Combo This is such a fun and different set since you get a red rubber ...
Hi Everyone, Like many card makers I absolutely adore Lawn Fawn products - they are darling! So, when I saw Lawn Fawn's Swan Soirée stamp set I was over the moon in love. Swan stamps sets are some of my favorites. Images I started by stamping many of the images from Swan Soirée onto Neenah Solar White, 110 lb, cardstock with Ink on 3's Blackout Ink and colored them using Copic markers. After the coloring was complete I went over the baby swans eyes with Sakura Black Glaze Pen to make them ...
Hi Everyone, I absolutely love The Greetery - every release I'm blown away by the beautiful products. The most recent release celebrating their 1st Anniversary just stole my heart! I especially loved all the pinwheel products including the amazing The Greetery's Pinwheel Party Stencil. Images I started by ink blending the pinwheels using the four main stencils in the Pinwheel Party Stencil set. These stencils are so smart, the first two create four of the pinwheels each stencil severing as ...
Hi Everyone, I love spring flowers, well really I love any flowers, but when I see Tulips and Daffodils I just feel happier. I love when they first appear since you know winter is coming to a close and warmer sunnier months are ahead. So, when I saw Simon Says Stamp's Daffodil Stem die I knew I had to bring this beautiful die home. Flower I started by die cutting the Daffodil Stem out of Simon Says Stamp's Sunshine cardstock and MFT's Sour Apple cardstock. Next, I inked the edges of the ...
