Lighter Than Air- Swap Card

Hello everyone!

Today I have the card I made for my swaps for On Stage in Houston. I made 40 of these cards to swap with 40 others.

I used the Hot Air Ballon and the Lighter Than Air DSP . The DSP will be retiring soon.


This was another quick and easy card, I used a couple of layers then die cut the pieces for my balloon and added them to a Stylish Shaped Circle where I stamped the balloon basket in Azure Afternoon ink.
I stamped the sentiment in Azure Afternoon ink as well and die cut it with the Stylish Shapes banner die. I added a Lemon Lolly bow and dots.
Super easy to make. We like quick and easy, right?

Best Ever Aunt, Birthday Card

Hello everyone!

I'm currently in California for a couple of weeks. I have some cards to share with you this week. Today I have a quick and easy card that I made for my Aunt for her 84th birthday.

I used the Best Family Ever stamp set and the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder.

I love being able to personalize my cards. 
With the Best Family Ever stamp set you can make a card for almost anyone.

To make this simple card I used a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Berry Burst cardstock, folded in half. I added a 5 1/4" x 4" piece of Basic White cardstock for the first layer. I then added Versamark to my embossing folder and embossed a 5" x 4" piece of Bubble Bath cardstock. I added Gold Embossing Powder and heat embossed it. Don't you just love how the Gold flowers stand out? 
I added a 1/2" x 5 1/2" piece of Berry Burst cardstock in the center using Liquid Glue.
I stamped the sentiments on a Stylish Shapes Square using Berry Burst ink and added it to the card front using Dimensionals.
I punched out some Bubble Bath & Vellum boughs with the Bough Punch and adhered them using Mini Glue Dots. I tied a White Bakers Twine bow and adherde that with a Mini Glue Dot as well.
Easy Right? So fun. Scroll down for the measurements to make this card.

April We Create Blog Hop- April Showers


Hello everyone! Happy April Fools, no fooling around here. We have some amazing projects for you!

Welcome to another, We Create Blog Hop.

This month's theme is April Showers. I chose to use two bundles for today's project. I used the Playing In The Rain and Filled With Fun stamp sets & dies. The Filled with Fun bundle is an online exclusive, which means you have to go online to get it, it is not in any catalog.

I like combining stamps sets when creating. I thought the wagon with the flowers (Filled With Fun) and the turtle holding a flower (Playing in the Rain) went perfect together. 




To make this simple card I used a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock, folded in half. I stamped the clouds, raindrops and puddles in Balmy Blue ink on a 5 1/4" x 4" piece of Basic White cardstock. I adhere that to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.
I die cut the following pieces: 
  • Wagon in Real Red cardstock
  • Railing in Crumb Cake cardstock
  • Wheels in Basic Black cardstock
  • Rims in Basic Gray cardstock
  • Heart in Granny Apple Green cardstock
  • Handle in Basic Gray cardstock and stamped in Memento ink
I glued the pieces together. I then stamped the turtle and flowers in Memento ink on Basic White cardstock. I colored them in using Granny Apple Green, Real Red and Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends. I die cut the flowers and turtle with their matching dies.
I glued the flowers to the wagon then adhered it to the card front using Dimensionals.
I added my turtle with Dimensionals as well. I stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink on Basic White cardstock and die cut with the Stylish Shapes banner die. I adhered that to the card front using Dimensionals. That was it! So easy to make and you can replicate it to many many at a time.

Look at how adorable the wagon is.
What do you think? Will you be making this card? Please let me know in the comments.


Measurements:
  • 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"  Daffodil Delight - Card Base
  • 5 1/4" x 4" Basic White - Layer

2024-2025 Annual Catalog & Latte Love Class To Go

Hello Everyone, 

I have been so busy, with the new annual catalog coming out in May and the Mini catalog retiring on the 30th.

I wanted to share a few things with you on the new catalog coming May 1, 2024.

  • There is a new layout as to how the stamps are displayed, bigger and they have samples.
  • They have added card sketches for you to use when creating (woo hoo), need I say more?
  • The index is going to be your best friend, not all products are displayed so you'll need to look them up in the index.
  • Some products will move to online exclusives there for they won't be displayed in the catalog. Check out the online exclusives on my website to see what has moved.
  • There will be price increases, there are increases on some of our basics. I have attached a list below.

You can request a 2024-2025 here: https://bit.ly/2425catalogrequest they will not ship until mid April.

You can see the price increase list that I made here: https://bit.ly/2024-2025Priceincrease 

Note: Punches are also increasing in price as well as the Cut & Emboss machine and plates for both machines. My suggestion is to stockup before the price increase. You can use my shopping links below.
