Another birthday card for my Occasions Mini Stamp-A-Stack ! I used the Create A Cupcake set & Build A Cupcake Punch (both on p. 22 in the Occasions Mini) on this card. I stamped the little bow on the cupcake paper holder before I ran it through the Paper Crimper (p. 198). The rest of the card is pretty self-expl…

Today's card is another one for my Occasions Mini Stamp-A-Stack (SAS). This card may be super simple, but it really looks elegant, too. The dogwood branch from the Easter Blossoms set (p. 17 in the Occasions Mini) was stamped with Blushing Bride ink. No coloring done at all, and it still looks so pretty. The orn…

I really like this new set, Strength & Hope . It's a set that will be in the 2011 Summer Mini Catalog that begins on May 1st. I actually used all of the stamps in the set on this card. Not only is this stamp set beautiful, it benefits Breast Cancer Research. For each set sold during May 1st - August 31, Stamp…

I thought it was supposed to be Spring now? We did have wonderful weather at the beginning of the week, but now, the temperature 32 degrees! My two youngest are on Spring Break next week, and it's supposed to be in the 40s all week with lows in the 20s and 30s. Oh well, I'm sure they'll still have a good w…

I really like this set! It's such a great masculine set. I CASEd this card, too. It was CASEd from Darlene Adamo's (SCS name is darleenstamps) card. You can see her card HERE . I changed it up a little bit, but not much. The stamp set is from the Occasions Mini, and it's called Plane & Simple (p. 40).…

I've been working on the cards that will be made at my Occasions Mini Stamp-A-Stack next month, and this is going to be one of them. I CASEd this card from someone, but I can't for the life of me remember who. I've been searching online, but I haven't been able to find her. The stamp set I used is Nat…

Here we are on another Monday! I'm really getting into doing these Mojo Monday sketches. This week's is MOJO 183 . I decided this sketch was perfect for the Easter Blossoms set (p. 17 in the Occasions Mini). I used a few other items from the Occasions Mini on this card, as well. The designer paper is the Spri…

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! I just had to make a St. Patty's Day card to celebrate. I used the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit die (p. 215) to make the shamrock, and I cut the stem free hand. I also brushed a Garden Green ink pad on the edges of each "leaf." I inserted an In Color Glimmer…

Happy Monday, everyone! Well, I've made another card using a MojoMonday sketch. This one is Mojo Monday #182 . I wanted to get a card made with the sketch this morning, but I had to wait until the big brown truck got here so I could use one of my newest sets! This wonderful set is called, Strength & Hope . …

Here is the last of the five projects that will be made at my Spring Fever Stamp Camp in a couple weeks. I pulled out another set that I haven't used for awhile, Awash with Flowers (p. 99). I forgot how much I like this set. I really like the whimsical look of the flowers. I finally got to use a die I got not to…
