Make A Wish!

May 15, 08

This is one of those stamp sets I didn't fall in love with when I first saw it, but after seeing a few cards using it, I decided to put it on my buy list before it's not available. If you would like to purchase She's All That, I will pay the shipping thru the end of May! She's All That is $33.95 is in the Occasions Mini catalog. The Occasions Mini catalog date has been extended to June 30!

This card would be perfect for the teenage girl in your life. The big chipboard flowers give it a funky feel.

Embrace Life Card

May 14, 08

This is a simple card to make without a lot of layers. I stamped the linen background on Vanilla Cardstock and also on the card itself. I use the brayer to make sure I get good contact on the paper when using big stamps. I then stamped the images from the Embrace Life Stampset right over the background and colored them in. Easy Peasy!

Wild About You!

I love this set for baby cards. This is a really fast card to put together once you get your cutting done. If you were to do this card on a square card you would have room to use the heads of 2 other animals on the card.

Bloomin Beautiful Card

May 1, 08

This card is just gorgeous IRL. The image was stamped with Black Stazon on Shimmery White CS two times. It was colored with a blender pen and markers. Then flowers were layered on the main image. I then used a VersaMark pen and sprinkled with glitter.

Looking at this picture you can see how the flowers are raised.
