Busy stamping!

Hello. Thought I would let you know what I’ve been working on lately! I had a bunch of pieces on my desk and thought I’d better put them together.

A bit of an update… it does take us 7/10 business days to get orders out these days. With both Kevin and I working full time at “real jobs” making stamps becomes the side job 🤪

We woke up to a winter wonderland this morning. It was beautiful. We’ve not had much snow this year. I hope I didn’t jinx it by talking about it.

Three Potted Rose cards

Dull Glossy Paper, flowers, Just a Note, Missing You

Happy Monday! I love using textured paper for a background. On all of these cards, the background is 4×5-1/4″. The white paper (dull glossy) is 4×2-5/8″ with the color swatch sized 4-1/4×2-7/8″. I used 3D foam squares to pop up the smaller swatches with one foam square in each corner and one in the middle. The roses were colored with alcohol ink markers. Links are below!

Good Morning. My easy simple cards keep going together. I have been having so much fun. Just need more time to stamp. Always need more time to stamp!

I did leave the inside blank- I don’t do that often but sometimes I wait to see what I need the card for.

Good Morning! We have a very cold morning here in Wisconsin. Many of you may know that we left the road, not because of Covid, but because my knees where bad. So on Dec 14, 2021 I had bilateral knee replacement! Yep I did both at the same time. It’s been a long recovery road but I’m getting there. That is one tough surgery! I had a friend who helped me a bit because I was having trouble sleeping and so I needed a card for her. Today’s card is a couple variations that I came up with.

It’s really takes a huge group of people to get someone through knee surgery. My kids were here for days helping us. We could not have done it without them. In the middle of recovery Kevin got Covid so that added a bit of a challenge. So glad those days are behind us and now just lots of physical therapy and hopefully some stamping!

Dull Glossy Paper, Just a Note

Good morning and happy Monday! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.

On this card the white paper is dull gloss (link below) and the key to using it is making sure the ink dries before coloring! It’s so disappointing when it gets smudged. Alcohol ink markers were used to color the images. Loving these cheerful sunflowers right now!

2021 Releases, Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper, Just a Note, Thank You Cards, Thinking of You, With Sympathy

So last week I showed you one of my card kits. And so today’s card shows how I put them together.., there are four outside sayings along with a inside saying. So when I need a card I have one with the exact saying that I want.

I love doing cards like this so I have options! I feel like these pictures don’t do the card justice. It is so much better in real life.

More daisies! I’m a little obsessed with them right now. I had a white frame I was going to put around but then wrecked it trying to add color. Oops. Might try again on another card though!
