Life happens!

alcohol ink, Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper, Frogs & Bugs

Hello! As all of you know sometimes things happen in life and you realize it’s time to close a door. We are planning to shut the website down on March 4th. We simply don’t have the time and energy to put into the website.

We do plan to continue with the blog since we’ve already paid for the year. After the website is down we can still take orders through email and phone orders.

I continue to make cards for my own enjoyment and will post as we have time. Hope you are still enjoying to stamp too!

If it is possible and time permits we may list items for discount in the future here on the blog. We will keep you posted.

Happy Stamping!

Hoppy birthday

alcohol ink, Birthday, Card Kits, Frogs & Bugs

It’s almost the weekend and we continue to have pretty cold weather-perfect to stay inside and stamp! Of course I could be cleaning the house too but what fun is that? Instead I clean my Stamping desk!

This cute card is so fun and it’s also a card kit!! Frog Card Kit

Enjoy and stay warm!!

Extreme Cold

It’s just getting colder so I look at that as more time to stamp! I have some more polka cards that I’m loving

Again I left the words off because I don’t know what kind of card it will end up being! I did layer the butterfly for depth.

WI Cold Advisory

Hello! It’s been a long time since you have heard from us. WI is pretty cold right now so I had a chance to do some stamping today. Sometimes I forget how much I love to stamp!

I didn’t put any words on it because I’m never sure what kind of card it will be or who the card is going to. I love polka dots though! Hope you all are well and keeping warm.

Same Style/Layout

Good Evening! We are sad to be heading back to work tomorrow 😢 less time for stamping.

Tonight’s card is the same as yesterday’s layout with a color change and word change ( needed another sympathy card!) The colors are beautiful and the picture doesn’t do it justice!

Happy birthday cards with candles – Feb 17

alcohol ink, Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper

Happy Saturday! Quick post with two birthday cards, both have candles in a square. On the first card, the background was created with alcohol inks. Create a water bath and drop alcohol inks into it, then gently lay the paper on top, quickly remove. I dry mine between paper towels but you could use old towels. They will stain though! And each result is different! It is hard to predict how the colors will look but sometimes I make a few and set aside for later use when it works with what I am working on. The textured paper on both cards is called white felt. Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend and stamp links are below!

More Sympathy

alcohol ink, Cutting Dies w/ matching stamp, flowers, Uncategorized, With Sympathy

I got started making sympathy cards and couldn’t stop. I also want to try this same card layout but change it up a bit today – we’ll see how the time goes. I’ve got a doctors appt so that kills a lot of the day.

I did stack these die cuts. One of my favorite things to do rather than use 3-d-dots. I just cut two extra layers and glue together. Love the look and feel! Stamp links: GG47 Hollyhocks; CC31 KB’s Bees; C331 Heartfelt Sympathy Sm;

Here are some directions for the layer: The layer (4×5.25”) card stock is usually the same color as the base card. score as below.

I do score twice. I score, then take a 1.5” square cutting die, and line up.

Cut out and then re-score since they get smashed in the Die Cutting machine . You could cut first and then score but I like the visual of knowing where the scores are. My score tool is just holding the paper down for picture.

Other Options!

I decided to leave this blank and stamp when I know what kind of card I need.

Pickles done!

Frog & Flies!

Times fun when you are having flies! Boy does time ever fly! I’ve been wanting to get this card kit on the website and I finally got around to it! It’s super cute. The colors are great. There are extra frogs so they have depth to them! We’ve sent a few out in some of the orders.

Option : Birthday Words

I love Saturdays! It’s like a free fun day. I’ve been wanting to send a couple of friends cards just to say hello and what better way then with a fox! ?

We’ve got a nice sunny day today. Lots of snow removal going on. One of Kevin’s favorite things to do! Really it is! Loves it! For a boy raised in Arizona – it’s a little strange 😜
