Honeycomb Happiness, page 15 of the SAB Catalog. I also used the fantastic Balloon punch, page 13 OC. I used the Wink of Stella glitter brush, page 24 of the OC, on the balloons.
I made this card thinking of my Grandaughter, Mary Pat, whose basketball team is undefeated. Naturally they are #1. The stamp set is Number of Years, page 11 in the OC and the sentiment is from the set Big News on page 100 in the AC. The colors I used are Blushing Bride, Pool Party, Old Olive and Calypso Coral.
This is another masculine card made with the set, Going Global, page 30 of the OC. I used the DSP stack, Going Places, same page and the Metallic sequins page 160 of the AC. I loved the DSP from this suite so much that I bought 3 pks so you will be seeing this a lot. It is so versatile.
I recently held a product based class for this darling little item, Enjoy the Little Things Project Kit, page 33 in the OC. We were all pleased at how they came out. Great to keep and change with the seasons, a special occasion or give as a gift to a loved one. The little fold out easel board is black board so you can even use it with chalk if you want to say something special. So much fun to create.
We made this card at my Wednesday morning club class. Everyone needs a Sympathy Card to keep on file and I thought this card, with the matching sentiment in side was perfect for that. The stamp set is Rose Wonder, page 18 of the OC. I absolutely love this versatile set because of the great verses it includes. We painted this on waterolor paper with Aqua painters, page page 163 of the AC. The colors we used were Watermelon Wonder and Mossy Meadow. We used the Big Shot to cut the Thinlits die in Gold Foil paper, page 148 in the AC. You can bundle this and save 15% on the package.
I just posted a similar card last week but this time I used Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Brush to set off the beautiful Rose. I really love the effect. The inside of the card is shown with a matching verse and the DSP Birthday Blooms that is perfect for this stamp set.
I really love this DSP, page 9 of the OC. The stamp set I used is Birthday Blooms, same page and I added wink of Stella, page 24, to the flower, which I did fussy cut. It kinda pops it right off the page. Love that stuff. In addition, I used the Pool Party Glitter ribbon, page 9.
I designed this card with the Botanical garden suite. You can get the stamps, the Thinlits dies, and the DSP for a great deal, 15% off regular price by ordering the bundle. And you get a FREE SAB item with this purchase. How awesome is that?
My oldest daughter has a birthday today and I made this card for her. I spent a long weekend at her house in TN recently and we had the best time. She is an incredible cook and a remarkable entertainer.
I had a wonderful time with my only granddaughter, Mary Pat who is 11 years old. I went to her basketball games, we went shopping, and out to lunch while I was there. I thank God for this blessing in my life.
I created this card using the Sunburst Thinlits Die, page 25 of the OC. In addition, I used the Metalic Sequin Assortment, page 160 of the AC. The stamps are from the set Ray of Sunshine, page 78 of the AC. I chose So Saffron for the sunburst.
I used the Balloon Bouquet punch on this card, page 13 in the OC. I used the DSP Perfectly Artistic, page 19 of the SAB catty. Sponged the balloons with Bermuda Bay ink and frayed the beautiful Pool Party Glitter ribbon, page 9 of the OC. I used the Little letters thinlits dies, page 172 AC, on Dazzling Diamond Glimmer paper.
With Valentine’s Day fast approaching it is not too soon to start thinking about what cards you are going to make for the special people in your lives. This card was created using the stamp set, Blooming’ Love, page 17 of the OC. The matching Dies are on page 16. What is great about this set is you can get it by the bundle and save an additional 15%. The set has some wonderful sentiments also with beautiful images. The porcelain dots can be found on page 6.
I created this card for our camp on Saturday and it is from the set Going Global, page 30 in the OC. I used the embossing folder, World Traveler Textured Impressions, same page, on the very vanilla background and I used the colors Delightful Dijon and Black Archival inks. The DSP is from the Going Places DSP paper Stack, also on same page.
This set can be found on page 27 of the OC. The matching dies are on page 26 and this can be purchased as a bundle. The great thing about this bundle is that it includes the DSP also. Quite a buy at $51.75. That means if you purchase this bundle through March 31st you can get a FREE Sale-A-Brations item. Double Whammy WOW!
This card was created using the stamp set Botanical Blooms, page 27 of the OC. The DSP is Botanical Gardens, same page and the matching framelits are on page 26. The first time I saw this DSP I knew I had to buy at least 2 packs of it. I liked everything in this suite so naturally I bought it all. Not sorry either because you can make so many different cards with it. You get a 15% discount if you purchase the bundle. AND THAT bundle will get you a FREE SAB, now through March.
This stamp set will only be available until February 15th. If you want this set you need to order it ASAP, because it is one of those sets that go fast! When ever anything is limited it never lasts long. The sentiments in this set, Sky is the Limit, are awesome and can be found on page 16 of the SAB catalog. I used the SAB Perfectly Artistic DSP. This is also limited and will end February 15th. Don’t wait it may not be there later.

The DSP is Birthday Bouquet found on page 9 of the OC. The colors I used are Blushing Bride and Mint Macaron. I also used the new Lots of Labels Framelits, page 173 in the AC.
This was one of the cards we made at Wednesday’s club.
I absolutely love this stamp set, Botanical Blooms, page 27 of the OC, with the matching dies, page 26. In addition the DSP, Botanical Gardens, page 27, is to die for. The patterns on the some of the DSP can actually be cut out with the dies as they are the same size. Such an unbelievable suite. I just had to have it all.
This card was created using the set, What I love, page 7 of the SAB. I used both Calypso Coral and Watermelon Wonder inks for this technique and stampin off with the Watermelon Wonder. I did fussy cut the flowers and the leaves, but it was very easy. Not very intricate at all. The DSP is Every Day Chic page 142 in the AC. The thank you was cut with the banner die from the Large Numbers Framelits, page 10 of the OC.
More flowers from the OC with the matching dies. The only stamping on this card is the sentiment, Sweet Sayings, page 41 of the OC. The Flowers were cut from the DSP, Botanical Gardens, page 27. On page 26 are the matching dies that I cut out the flowers and leaves with. This is such an outstanding set, I am sure you will see a ton of cards created with this set and matching dies all over the internet. The great thing about this is if you buy the Bundle, both stamps and dies, you will get 15% off. Quite a savings! I used the enamel dots on this card too. They are so cool!
I got in a flower mode yesterday and decided to try out some of our new flower stamps both from the new Occasions Catalog (OC) and the new Sale-A-Bration catalog (SAB). This card was created using the SAB set, Botanicals for You, page 4. The colors I used were Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron, Crushed Curry and Old Olive. In addition I added the NEW lovely Enamel Dots, It’s My Party, page 6, of the OC. I think they really set this card off.
This is one of my favs in the new OC, page 9. I used the new set Timeless Textures, page 29 for the background and the sentiment is from the set Suite Sayings, page 41. I used Watermelon Wonder and Mint Macaron. The gorgeous DSP is Birthday Bouquet, page 9.
If you rec’d your new catalogs in the mail then you can find this set on page 40 of the Occasion Catalog (OC). It is called Bear Hugs. It has matching framelits, also on the same page. You can get it in wood or clear mount.
This stamp set is from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Anything in the SAB catty you can get FREE with a purchase of $50. This will continue through the end of March and starts on January 5th. You can reach me here if you would like to schedule a workshop at your home or mine. Additional hostess rewards throughout the 3 month period also.
We rec’d this card in the mail and it was from our Daughter Mo. We were so blown away by it I thought I would use it for my Christmas Post today. I think she did an incredible job with the coloring and I love the sky and the black glimmer paper really sets it off. This set you can still get, maybe not for this year but you can always save it for next year. All Ye Faithful on page 20 in the HC.
From our family to yours, hope y’all have a blessed Christmas!
I love this little guy from the DSP Home for Christmas, page 9 of the HC. Our SU artists really did a fantastic job designing our Holiday Designer Paper. The wreath, embossed in gold, is from the set Peaceful Wreath, page 21. The Gold Vellum paper is from the AC, page 149. The gold Sequins are from the Metallics Sequins, page 160 of the AC.
So sad that this set, page 21, will be retiring at the end of this Holiday catty. I ebossed the wreath with gold embossing powder and fussy cut the reindeer from the DSP, Home for Christmas. The Fancy Foil vellum paper can be found on page 149 of the AC. The sentiment is from the set Sparkly Seasons, page 40 HC.
PS: The die cut banner is from the NEW Occasions catty coming soon.
I am so going to miss this DSP (page 9) when the Holiday catty retires. I have had so much fun cutting out these images. On the pointsettia I added Crystal Effects to really get it to pop off the page. What do you think? Just another couple weeks and this will be gone so get yours now.
This is a hostess set in the HC, page 51. I think this set, Antique Tags, are one of the most versatile sentiments for the Holidays, suitable for both adults and children. Something for everyone. I used the DSP from the AC, Every Day Chic, page 142.
I love both these sets, page 17 & 33 of the HC. In addition, I fussy cut the little reindeer from the DSP, Home for Christmas, page 9. They are so stinkin’ cute! The tree was cut out with the matching framelits from Perfect Pines framelits, page 16. I also used the bling, Winter Wonderland, page 23 of the HC.
In case you miss sending out Christmas cards this year because you were so busy, why not send New Year’s cards? I started receiving NY cards last year, so I guess it is kinda of a new tradition. Makes sense. This card was created with the wreath from the stamp set, Peaceful Wreath on page 21 of the HC and also the matching framelits Wonderful Wreaths, page 172 of the AC. I used the gold thin Metalic thread, page 159 AC and the sentiment from the Hostess set, Six Sayings. This is such a dynamite set for the Holidays and you can get it by hosting a work shop in your home or mine. It is from the Holiday catalog. Contact me HERE.
I was short this year and had to make up some more cards at the last minute and this was one of them. Usually, I have so many samples from my card making classes and clubs that I don’t need to. I generally send them to people out of town but I noticed that a lot of people no longer send Christmas cards.
I get a lot of email type cards. I am sure you know the kind. Where you click on it and it brings you to a singing card or a beautiful Christmas card online. That is not good for business.LOL I will keep making and sending cards for as long as I can. I think it is extra special for someone to go to the mail box and find a hand written card. It takes a lot more effort to create a card and means so much more to the recipient, don’t you agree?
I used the Star embossing folder on the back ground and the beautiful gold cording trim, page 24 of the HC. In addition, I used the vellum Winter Wonderland paper stack, page 23, in back of the tree. The stamp set, Peaceful Pines, page 17 ,with the matching dies. Colors are Whisper White and Lost Lagoon.
My WA ladies & Gentlemen asked me to make a card for our Instructor for Christmas. They usually take up a collection for her and they knew I was a card maker. So this is what I made for her. It is a 5″X7″ because we need enough room for all to sign the card. We usually present it to her at our Christmas Party held at Alhambra Hall every year! Hope y’all like it! AND.. in case you are wondering, no one that I do WA with knows about my blog so she will not see this. LOL
Another beautiful set from the new Spring catalog soon to be released. We did this card as a M&T at on-stage also. I love this DSP because you can stamp on it and actually cut out the images on it from the Botanical Builder framelits. It is the most awesome combination of stamps and dies that I have ever seen. The DSP is to die for, and you know the catalog never does justice to the actual paper once you see it in person. The set is called Botanical Blooms.
This is another stamp set that we were able to purchase while we were at On-stage in Baltimore. I think this set, Going Global is going to be very popular. It has a matching Textured embossing folder that goes with it. Love it!
