I Just Love You!


Here is one of the three cards we made last night at my Hostess Club get together. The only stamp set used was Just Like You. We embossed the main flower with iridescent ice over pixie pink craft. We also used the crop-a-dile to make "dry embossed circles" along the edge of the curve of the white card stock. No card would be complete unless we used some punches! Corner rounder, and Three For You flowers complete the card. And can you make a cool card without a white gel pen stitch? hmmmm, not that often!

For You


Here's another card I made with the Just Like You stamp set. This one is my favorite cards from the set thus far. It's very peaceful to me. I inked the main image in Certainly Celery ink and added Tempt. Turquoise marker to the flowers on top. Card stock and ink colors are: Tempt. Turquoise, Soft Sky and Certainly Celery with a piece of Flowers for You DS paper. I added stickles glitter on flowers and butterfly.

UR sweet!


Another Halloween card using Creepy Crawly DS paper and the Booglie Eyes stamp set. I embossed the spider with Basic Black and colored him in with my aqua painter and black refill. I used my crop-o-dile to add dry embossed circles to the black strips on the top and bottom of the card. I wish Stampin' UP! carried white brads, but they don't....so I used my white gel pen -can't live without that baby!

Just Like You...Friend

Okay, this is my first card I made with this set. I have an addiction to flowers, so this Ronald McDonald House Charities set fits the bill! It's such a cute set! I used Just Like You, Petals jumbo wheel, Canvas, Circle of Friendship and Little Pieces stamp sets.
Tempting Turquoise, Pixie Pink and Certainly Celery are the colors of ink and card stock. Try not to use more than three colors, otherwise your card will look too busy. I used the Designer Label, slot, 1 inch circle, 1/2 inch circle, ticket corner, and photo corner punches. Center flower has a glue dot with dazzling diamonds glitter and is secured to card with a dimensional. Can't wait to play some more with this fun set!

Happy Halloween!


These pumpkins are eager to greet you this coming Halloween! Carved & Candlelit, Polka Dots & Paisley, Linen and Everyday Flexible Phrases stamp sets were used with Creepy Crawly DS paper. I can't make a card without a "punch". I used the roun tab punch, Spring flower bouquet, key tag and 1/4 inch punches to finish off the card.

EEK! It's a little scarey (or cute?)

Here's another Halloween card I made using Autumn Apparations and Booglie Eyes stamp sets. The mummy is embossed in white and colored with white craft pad using my aqua painter. I added cute "booglie eyes" with my 1/4 inch circle punch (I think I use this punch on almost every card I make), and made black dots on them. I also used our Creepy Crawly DS paper with Pumpkin Pie and Basic Black card stock. EEK! stamp is from Bitty Boo's Too- which is in the September Stampin' UP! special.

Josh's Big Muskie!


While I was stamping a little...the boys were fishing a little. Josh (my son) caught this 46 inch muskie off our dock at our cabin in Canada over Labor Day weekend. UG!

Autumn Apparations swap

I love Halloween! I love to make Halloween cards and decorate my home with all the fun and scarey accessories. Basically, I love accessories! This set isn't scarey- but it sure is dang cute. Sewing a strip of our Creepy Crawly DS paper and adding black flowers from the Spring Flower Bouquet punch brings it alive! I just love the black cat in the Autumn Apparations stamp set. More samples to come in October.

Sew Priceless!


This is the second card I made using the Priceless stamp set. I sewed a strip of close to cocoa and purely pomagranate Prints DS paper together and layered them onto close to cocoa and certainly celery cardstock. The Three For You punch box set is great to add a little "extra" to any card quick and easily.
