I pulled out the Swirly Scribbles thinlit dies for a quick card the other day.  (I didn't purchase the stamp set at first . . . but now I want that too!)  It's a simple, fun card as we start off summer! Continue reading

I am looking forward to the New Catalog Party this evening!  It's always fun to introduce a new catalog and all the goodies it contains! In the meantime, here's a  card I made using some new DSP, a  new stamp, and some new In-Color Ribbon! Continue reading

It is easy to overlook the flower and butterfly stamps in the In the Meadow stamp set.  The deer seem to attract the attention and you almost overlook the flowers. This card focuses solely on the flowers, butterflies, and sentiments. Continue reading

I just got on my computer and realized my card never showed up on Friday like it was supposed to!  Friday was the last day of school . . . apparently my brain went on summer vacation early! I think this is my favorite card from the In the Meadow Stamp of the Month class.  It's simple and yet so lovely! Continue reading

This particular card, which we are making in the In the Meadow Stamp of the Month class, truly exemplifies the name of the stamp set.  I'm pleased with how it turned out! Continue reading

Along with swirls, I'm a sucker for pretty script.  Maybe it's because I don't have the prettiest handwriting, I just love to get stamps that have pretty sentiments.  The Rose Wonder stamp set fits the bill. We are pulling it out just to use one of the sentiments on one of the Step It Up cards right now. Continue reading
