I'm still playing with the Flowers of Friendship stamp set. Anytime we have a stamp set and punch combo, I'm probably going to buy it. I love my die cuts, but the punch is so quick and easy to work with. The punch cuts out both sizes of flowers and leaves. Cutting out all these flowers and leaves was so quick. You'll notice that there is no sentiment on this card. Sometimes, the better placement for a sentiment is the inside of the card. … [Read more...] about So Many Flowers
Dad Sampler
Today I'm sharing my brand new Sampler in honor of dear old Dad. Oh boy, this was a tough one. What does Dad like? As I thought about it, I realized Dads like a wide variety of things. There are the sporty Dads, hobby Dads, cooking Dads, and Dads who work in an office. I tried to pick things that represent a wide variety of Dads. My Dad didn't golf, but I know a lot of Dads do. My Dad liked nice cars but was usually fairly conservative in the … [Read more...] about Dad Sampler
April Paper Pumpkin-So Cool
April's Paper Pumpkin kit is reminiscent of those sweet Summer days, when you you'd be listening for the music of the coming ice cream truck.

That ice cold creamy chocolate popsicle … [Read more...] about April Paper Pumpkin-So Cool

Flowers of Friendship
Happy Monday! This is one of my first cards using brand new stamps and paper from the new Annual Catalog. I love the watercolor flowers in the paper. They match the flower stamp so well. I kept the card relatively simple to keep the focus on the pretty flowers. I did make the flowers 3D though to give them a little pop. To do this, I stamped an extra set of flowers and colored and cut them out. I used a glue dot at the base of the flower and … [Read more...] about Flowers of Friendship
