A Big Batch of Cute Cards!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  :)

Today, I have a whole group of lovely cards to share.  Enjoy!

 Isn't this just the cutest diecut?  Using the BigShot, punch out this cute Happy Birthday sentiment...easy as pie (or cake?) and it looks so professional!

 This one would be so cute for a neighbor gift of cookies or you could even make it into a bookmark!

 Another version of one of my favorite stamp sets.  This plane actually 'spins' in the air...using a brad in the center!

 Here's a super cute bookmark or tag!

 A nice Spring Thank You Note!

Here is the beautiful Heart die.  This would be so perfect for Birthday or Mother's Day...just leave off the Be Mine sentiment!

I hope you've enjoyed these cards.  Be sure to click through to my website if you're interested in purchasing any of the products used.  

Happy Stamping!  :)

Your Presents

A quick and easy card that uses the Your Presents stamp set, but would be just as easy to make on your own with DSP or even solid color cardstock and some ribbon or Gold Cording.  The Brick Wall Embossing Folder provides a cute background and the Jolly framelit comes from the Christmas Greetings Thinlits collection.  Fun and quick!

Another simple card created with the Your Presents stamp set and the Red Striped ribbon, along with the Gold Cording.  A strip of Gold Foil adds elegance.  The sentiment is stamped in Gold ink and the Real Red cardstock is punched out with the Scallop Oval punch, one of my favorite punches.

Here's a way to use the same stamp set for a Thank You or Birthday card.  The gift bag uses a Doily and Gold Cording and the background is embossed with the Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder.  The sentiment is stamped in Whisper White Craft Ink (give it a few hours to dry!) and hand cut.

I hope you're having fun this weekend preparing for Christmas festivities next week.  We made gingerbread houses this afternoon!  So fun.

Fall Acorn Fun!

This new stamp set, Acorny Thank You, comes with it's own Acorn Punch, which makes these cards super easy and fun.  The circle is punched out of the Into the Woods Designer Series Paper.  An Into the Woods wood element makes this card pop!

This Thanksgiving card is simple, yet contains many different elements!  A small strip of Into the Woods DSP in the background is covered by a cute tag created with the new Curvy Corner Trio Punch!  A Wooden Element and a piece of Old Olive Baker's Twine adds some texture.

This friendly note also uses the Acorny Thank You stamp set and matching Acorn Punch, but adds a strip of that pretty new Very Vanilla Subtle Stripes Satin Ribbon, from the new Holiday Mini Catalog.  The background acorns are stamped using Versamark Ink.

I hope you're having fun preparing for Thanksgiving now that the weather is finally starting to turn toward Fall.  Enjoy!

A Feminine Thank You Card

Here's a card I made using that pretty DSP Lap of Luxury.  At first I thought Concord Crush (purple) was too dark, but against the Pretty in Pink paper, it looks more like a true purple.
