Good Morning! Loving this warmer weather! Here are two cards with the same stamps and layout but with different colors. This layout shows the patterned paper off a bit. White paper is dull gloss.
Stamps used: A190 Heart; D329 Mocha Me Happy; EE74 Cup and Saucer LG; C320 Handmade Card Inside; C245 HANDMADE IN WI
Today has a bonus post! Here is a quick graduation card that is easy to change depending on school colors. Stay well everyone and keep stamping!
Stamps: E256 KB’s Bookish Owl, C234 GRADulations, HH29 Star Border
White paper: Dull Gloss
Red Paper: I think it is Jupiter “Stardream” Metallic from The Paper Cut
Here is another card using pieces of scrap paper! The white piece with celebrate on it is 1″x5.25″. The candles piece is 1″x3.5″. The blue and white striped paper is 1.75″x5.25″.
Stamps: G346 Celebrate, DD71 Cake Time Fun Cube, B310 It’s Your Day!, EE53 KB’s Skinny Candles

This is a quick card that uses scrap paper. The floral paper is 2″x5.25″, the yellow square is 2.25″x2.25″, and the white paper on top of the yellow square is 2″x2″. Hope everyone is doing well!
Good Morning and happy Monday! On this card, the fold is at the top and it opens upward. The words and flowers are stamped on Dull Glossy Paper and set aside overnight. Sometimes an idea starts and then gets finished later but it allows the ink to dry which is needed with the dull glossy paper!
Stamps: C128 So Glad We’re Friends, HH32 Pansy Large, EE65 Pansy Med.
Copic Markers: YR68 Orange, BG01 Aqua Blue, G43 Pistachio, YG67 Moss
Here is a quick card! Cut out the center with a scallop die and stamped the words on the back paper in the center. Distressed with an ink pad all around the top paper. Stamped and colored the candles on the bottom. Then used pop up dots to attach to the card. Just need a scored card and 2 pieces of 4×5.25″ white paper. I haven’t added an insert to this card yet but will probably add a happy birthday to the inside at some point.
Happy Wednesday! Getting harder to know what day it is. Know of anyone who needs something to perk them up?
Stamps: Mini Coffee Pot Clear Set, E293 Coffee Beans, D327 Perk Up Day, EE63 Squares 1.5”
For this card, the alcohol inks had some funky color combinations that came by accident. Maybe it is just me, but I like them! Wanted to add some more interest with the inside insert so added the candles and the wish big stamped on a kraft sticker.
Hope everyone is doing well! Glad for technology to stay in touch with loved ones. Anyone getting creative with the food in their pantry? Recipe ideas welcome!

Saturday bonus card! With all this time at home, a lot of stamping and cleaning happening. Hope everyone is doing well!
Stamps: F305 Lighted Rocket Ship, C325 Happy Birthday Human, C320 Handmade Card Inside
It’s Friday! Here we used an old calendar (from Target) as a background. Stamped on dull gloss but it is a little messy because if the stamps are dirty or have any fuzz, it shows. Important to clean the stamps well but sometimes we forget. 🤪 It makes it look more handmade, right?! Also, important to let the dull gloss images dry before attempting to color otherwise it will smear.

Is everyone staying home and avoiding socializing? This is hard for those of us who love seeing people! Missing all our friends and family while following these restrictions.
Stamps: A190 Tiny Heart, Mini Coffee Pot Set, C310 Coffee Beans Mini, F284 Miss You Latte
Good Morning! Here we have a card that could be for a 50th birthday or an anniversary. The lines can be made with a marker which is a little more messy or the HH10 stamp.
Stamps: F215 KB’s 50th, C287 KB’s Celebrate, HH10 Skinny Geometric Lines
Happy St. Patrick’s day! Sadly, we do not have a patty day card.😆 It snuck up on us! Instead, we have a birthday card to celebrate Blake’s (nephew) birthday! Hope everyone is doing well in these crazy times we live in.
Stamps: D324 Happy Birthday Long, EE53 KB’s Skinny Candles, C302 Blow Out Candles
Here is card number 3! Happy Friday!
Below are the stamps and die cuts. Not sure what tag was used though.

Die Cuts: CDDD54 BABY ELEPHANT, CDC228 BABY LION, CDDD53 BABY GIRAFFE
Our friend sent us photos of her lovely cards and here is the first! The green and orange make it a really good gender-neutral card. Liking the torn edge too; might have to try it on a few of my own cards again! 😄
Good Morning! For this card we stamped the squares, then the flowers and cut around with a scissors. The trickiest part is stamping the happy birthday border. Since it is long, important not to rock and give even pressure along. Or if you have cling with a MISTI, it is much easier!
Stamps: GG51 Daisy Triangle Vase Lg, G317 Happy Birthday to you! Border, EE63 Squares 1.5”, FF60 Daisy in Triangle Vase Med
We had a little snow here in the Midwest! Hoping it doesn’t stick much and we can still feel spring coming. Hope everyone had a good Tuesday.
Happy Friday! Here are three cards using the tall skinny candles.
Stamps: EE53 KB’s Skinny Candles; D338 Birthday Wishes; C302 Blow Out Candles; B302 Wish Big;
We always love an owl card and here we used several stamps in the CS105 set. Also, used two older stamps: a party hat and the bitty block to add a background.
Stamps: DD55 Owl Fun Cube, DD52 KB’s Clara Owl; CC57 Party Hat; CS105 WISE OWL SET; A076 Retro Bitty Block
Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is a coffee thank you card with the coffee beans stamped on a brown swatch for a background. Used a scallop die for the white to make it stand out. Now that I am looking at this card, wondering if I should have added a shadow/surface the cups and coffee pot? Will have to try next time!
Stamps: Mini Coffee Pot Clear Set; D328 Sending Thanks; E293 Coffee Beans;
This was a fun card to make and a bit of an experiment. For the background, I used dull gloss paper and rubbed the edges with a light blue ink pad, then stamped rows and columns of the bitty block across the paper. Followed with the circle in green. Thought it was still missing something, so added the orange lines. Used Copic markers to color the cupcake. My constant struggle with the dull gloss is not allowing enough time to dry. Might need to take a heat gun to it! A lot of birthdays are coming up so time to get stamping 🤪, happy Friday! 🎉

Missed yesterday so thought we’d make it up today. On this card, we used the aloe trio and instead of using them separately, kept them together. For the frame we used alcohol inks. Started with a 5.25×4″ piece of paper then cut out the inside by .25” all around. A bit complicated but I’m loving the effect!
Enjoy the Saturday!
