AESTAMPS A LATTE

 Hello, and Happy Memorial Day weekend! I hope you are having a fabulous and relaxing weekend. We have been having some beautiful weather here in Minnesota and I plan to be outside as much as possible.  Today starts a new challenge at Sunday Stamps! and here's what I made using the awesome  Cheerful Daisies Bundle . What a fun stamp set this is!.I love that there are many options for creating different looking daisies using the stamp set with or without the coordinating Cheerful Daisies Dies. For this creation, I used two sets of the dies to create a large and small daisy flower. I just had to add stamped and die cut flower centers to each. Add the Fresh as a Daisy 12" x 12" DSP to your arsenal and you will be able to make some gorgeous creations.  I love stamp sets that have coordinating DSP.  My card design follows the new challenge at Sunday Stamps!: To play along simply follow the Sunday Stamps! guidelines below: Use any brand of products you have; Link your...

 Hello, crafty friends. Today, I have a fun masculine card to share with you using the Gone Fishing Bundle.  I might as well start by saying that I have "been gone" for a bit dealing with some health issues which set me back from doing normal things including stamping. Things are improving and hopefully will continue. Hence the lack of posting on my social media sites.  However, I think I will be able to make it up to you by sharing this adorable fish card that I made using leftover pieces from my Let's Go Fishing Suite Card Class. Last weekend was the "fishing opener" here in Minnesota (which happens to usually coincide with Mother's Day weekend- go figure?!).  Most all of the guys (and gals I am sure) run to one of our 10,000 lakes to fish for walleyes.  How appropriate is it that I "went fishing too". lol You can see how I made this card on my YouTube Channel HERE. In the video I also demonstrate how you can use the new 2023-2025 In  Color Jute ...

 Today's card features the Bottled Happiness Bundle and is paired with a new bundle from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog called Countryside Corners . The Countryside Corners Bundle is a wonderful addition to my stamping arsenal and can be paired with just about any creation you are  making. The stamp itself makes six different sized "frames" that can be die cut to create a frame or window for any project you want to showcase.   For this creation, I used the 2 largest dies with the largest stamped image to create a frame using Blueberry Bushel cardstock with Blueberry Bushel ink.  I think the frame I created from this set really showcases the images from the Bottled Happiness Bundle perfectly. As for my color choices,  I have to admit that I would not normally gravitate to using Blueberry Bushel, Berry Burst, Smoky Slate and Lemon Lolly for a color combination, but that's exactly what this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps! is all about! :) To join for thi...
