Creatures, Dull Glossy Paper, Frogs & Bugs, Hello, Mini Cards, Uncategorized

Good Morning ☀️

It’s a good day to be wild! But I will just be stuffing make n takes today. We will be leaving in one week for the last of the shows- Fort Wayne, IN; York, PA; Hampton, VA; Mesa, AZ to begin with!!

Stamps used: C290 Be Wild; G311 Branch; DD53 Giraffe Lg;

Cutting Die Used: DD53 Giraffe Lg;

If you notice the giraffe cutting die doesn’t just cut the outside out but also the head so you can pop it – as in the 2nd example. We have also been making little envelopes for our little cards 😊

Frogs & Bugs, Hello, Scallop Rectangle Card Making Die, Thinking of You

Good Morning!  We woke up to buckets of snow!! Groan!  After our 60 degree weather this is going to be tough😜. It’s coats and boots to go out to the shop again. 

Our next show is Rockford, IL and we have this weekend off so we have a little time but not much. It is only 4 hours from home so that is really nice. 

Well better get going…the stamps won’t make themselves.  😝
