Good morning! This is a fun way to use white card stock and patterned paper. I’m having trouble deciding whether to add ribbon or not. The card folds at the top. What do you think?

So this is how my cards start off generally. I will make lots of flowers and color and cut them out. I will stamp and punch out words. Then I’ll build kits of cards. Then when I need a card – I grab a kit and put it together with the words that I want! Then the rest gets put back into the kit pile.
I did add a little bee at the last minute. I needed a thank you card so I looked at my kits and came up with this card.

Good Afternoon! We have been enjoying the birds around our house these days. Since we have not been traveling – we have been able to more consistently fill the bird feeders and the birds have been fun to watch and see how they are nesting. The deer love the feeders too! 😆

Happy Friday! Here is a very simple sympathy card that only takes a few minutes to put together. To stamp the sympathy phrase, I placed the white piece of paper with the oval cutout on the card and marked lightly with a pencil where the edges were before taking away the white piece and stamping the words. Then stamped the flower and bee on the white piece, colored the images and assembled.
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend and links are below.

We always seem to need birthday cards. 🎉 This one comes together pretty quickly. Most time consuming part is coloring the cake but it’s also the most fun! Links are below.

Good Evening! Wisconsin hit almost 80 degrees today! Somewhere in the high 70’s. You may wonder why I am posting a Christmas card… I don’t know how many of you know but I went back to work as a Certified Ophthalmic Technician which is what I did prior to Stamping. It has been very rewarding back in the eye business. I needed some Christmas cards for one of the doctors and came up with this simple idea.
The background is printed paper for ease and quick ability to make lots of cards. You could use a background stamp, emboss, or whatever you want. Enjoy!

Happy Wednesday! Aren’t these polka dots fun?! I’m loving these colors! This is a really quick card especially if you have these potted aloe already stamped and cut out. They were even colored and all I had to do was find matching paper. Get the right words, assemble and done. Links to see on website are below!

Happy Tuesday! Sending kind words, peace and care.
For this card, the aloe was stamped first on a scrap of dull gloss white paper to set aside to allow time to dry. Then the square was cut out on a dull gloss swatch (4” x 5.25”). Stamped the words next to allow time to dry before assembling. Once the potted aloe is dry enough, it can be cut out and colored with alcohol ink markers. All that’s left is to glue/tape swatch onto cardstock, then put 3D pop up on aloe and attach in window. Quick and easy! The cut out square was saved for another card which will hopefully get finished and posted later this week.

Good Evening. Time sure fly’s when you are busy! Where does the time go?? We just seem to be so busy that the day gets away from us. Needed a sympathy card recently and had this pattern paper and thought it would make a quick card. It was super fast and easy with just black ink. Loved the matching paper with squares.

Good Morning! I’ve been a busy bee making cards with our Bee stamps. I am hoping to send the images to the die cutting company to get cutting dies made but I also have book keeping to do today. We will see how far I get.
Good Morning! For this card, we stamped the solid heart in four different colors and stamped the stitched heart on top with the same colors. Paper is dull glossy – link is here: https://shopec.com/shop/ols/products/dull-glossy-paper. Although, in brighter light, we realized the ink is a little more orange than the paper. Don’t look too closely! 😆
