Sweet Stuff

This makes me long for summer! I’ll have to wait a bit because we are getting a few inches of snow tomorrow! We’ve been lucky, no real snow for us since that freak snow storm back in Oct!

Here are more products from the Occasions Mini. I love the ice cream stamp! This is a great card for anyone. I was inspired by some great stamper out there, but I can’t find it now because I did this card a few weeks back. This will be a project in an upcoming workshop as well.

Enjoy!

Card Components:

Stamp Set- Mouthwatering, verse is from Under the Big Top

Card Stock – Lucky Limeade, Whisper White

DSP – Sweet Shop

Now that I’m passed Valentine’s day projects, I’m working on Easter stuff. I’m doing a craft show on St. Patrick’s Day so I’ll need to have my stash of Easter cards & treats to sell.

I’ve been eyeing this set for a while and decided I needed a new Easter stamp set. Stay tuned for more!

Stamp set: Every Bunny

So, you probably know that Fresh Vintage is my favorite SAB set this year! I decided to start some Mother’s Day gifts early this year. This will be a workshop on March 30th. You’ll make 6 cards with envelopes and the box for $24.00!

Baby Shower Favors

My Godson is going to be a daddy! Boy, do I feel old! I’ve know his mom since we were 4 years old….again, feeling old! It’s so great to have a friend who’s known you for just about your whole life! I offered to do the baby shower favors – I did shower favors for when her daughter had her baby a few years ago, so I had to offer when her son, also my Godson, has his baby. These little pillow boxes are the easiest thing to do. The set is an old retired set, Baby’s First. I was going to sell it, but my team member BEGGED me not to get rid of it so now she has it! I’m so glad she talked me out of selling it because I forgot how cute it was! And yes, it’s a boy!

More SAB Product

This is definitely my favorite set from SAB, Fresh Vintage. It goes great with the paper! This is going to be one of my upcoming classes so check out my workshops and make sure you sign up if you want to make it.

Great New Punch

I love new punches! They are pretty much the staple of my stamping room. If you are going to spend money, spend it on a punch.

In the new Occasions Mini, there’s a new flower punch called the Blossom Punch. There’s also a great stamp set that goes along with it called Mixed Bunch. Can’t go wrong when there’s a stamp to match a punch.

Fabulous Florettes

As promised, another post. This is an exact CASE from Linda’s Stampin Loft. She did it a while back and I’ve been wanting to to do it for a while.

So simple and actually very easy! I just love that set!!!!

Monster Valentine

I’m back on the Valentine’s Day kick!!! I just couldn’t resist this one. I was inspired by this card on It’s A Stamp Thing. So cute!

I used DSP Play Date & DSP Pretty In Pink. Make A Monster and a verse from an old Valentine’s set that I can’t think of now. Enjoy!
