Flourishes Zinnias

This is a new image for me from Flourishes and is really a fun stamp to work with.  There is so much that you can do with it and it just seems to come together by itself!!!  Thanks Flourishes.

Stampavie's Kitty in Umbrella

I love this image from Stampavie.  It colors so easily and is both adorable and versatile.

Grandson's Easter Card

I had a hard time deciding on what to make for my two grandson's Easter cards.  One is 5 months old and the other is 13, so it had to be something that was suitable for both ages.

I came up with using this cross image from Stampin Up.  I think it fits both age groups and will be enjoyed by both age groups.

A new look for an old card design

I made a card like this several years ago.  Recently, I uncovered the stamp again and wound up using the same design.  I really like the card.  It is easy to make and makes a very elegant card.  I am afraid the scan is not too good, but since I like the card, I have added it.

New Flourishes Stamp

I saw a similar card to this on a blog post (don't remember whose - wish I did because I would like to give them credit).  I joined a swap on one of my groups where I had to use Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive cardstock colors.  This stamp and card design seemed perfect. I changed it up quite a bit and really like the end result.

Card for Lily swap

I recently needed a Lily stamp or a swap I had joined.  I love this stamp and seem to go to it quite often.  The main image is mounted on Mulberry paper.  Not sure if the glitter in the lily will show, but it really makes a nice card IRL

New Stamps I purchased

I love funny stamps and I think this one is hilarious.  I recently purchased it at my LSS and I know I will be using this a lot. 

Easter Stamp for granddaughters

This is the card I will use for my granddaughter's for Easter.  It is something I think they will enjoy. 

Fairy

Since my grandddaughter was born I have been buying little girl and fairy stamps.  This is a new stamp for me, and I reallylike it.

Glamour Girl from Rubbernecker

I love this stamp and have had it for awhile.  It is so versatile, but a simple card turns out great with just the main focal image being the girl. 

My Teddy

This is a card design I saw somewhere.  I don't remember where I saw it, but I think the Teddy stamp from Me and Carrie Lou is perfect for it.  I watercolored the image on watercolor paper and then using the Oval Nestie and Scalloped Oval Nestie along with Cuttlebug on velum paper made the card.   I like the look and it is an easy card to make.
