Valentine’s Day Week

Dull Glossy Paper, pattern paper, Valentine's Day

Just a couple of cute Valentine cards but not very good pictures 🤷‍♀️ !!

I think Valentine’s Day is my favorite holiday ❤️ I also love pattern paper. I typically cut all my pattern paper down for easier storage but it does limit you when your pattern paper has a definite pattern to it like these hearts. I will usually cut some of them horizontal and then some of the vertical.

I actually sometimes just cut paper when I’m looking to relax! Have a great week.

Extreme Cold

alcohol ink, Cutting Dies w/ matching stamp, Dull Glossy Paper, flowers, pattern paper

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.

It all started with…

Echo Paper Bee Happy

So I could probably make cards for the next 10 years without buying any paper but when I saw this it, well, I had to buy it!

I spent the last few days making cards. Because I am not sure what kind of cards I want I didn’t add any words. I will add words before sending them out.

I had a ton of fun making all these cards. I also cut all the paper 4×5.25 and keep the left over pieces all together.

Beautiful Day

2021 Releases, pattern paper, With Sympathy

We have a gorgeous day here in Wisconsin. I feel like we’ve had a very cool summer which is probably ok since we didn’t get the pool open this year.

Last night after supper I decided to make some sympathy cards since I was down to none. Our son is a minister and he asked for some sympathy cards the other day and I only had two! He likes them simple with nothing inside so I went to work last night.

I started with this card…I had seen the layout and I wanted to try it.

The pictures don’t really do it justice but it is simple and clean. I used an old cutting fern die – I think from Making Memories. The stamp was C331 Hearfelt Sympathy Sm

Made a couple of other quick ones…This one uses the larger D368 Heartfelt Sympathy Med

Enjoy your day! I have this boatload of cucumbers to get pickled!

Another Thank You!

pattern paper, Thank You Cards

So I have to admit I cheated a little on this one and pulled it from my stash that my daughter made! Hence the Handmade in Minnesota!

Thank You!

Cutting Dies w/ matching stamp, Dull Glossy Paper, pattern paper, Thank You Cards

I’ve needed to make some thank you cards lately to thank people for all their help during my surgeries and recoveries. Recovery goes a bit too slow for me – anxious to be feeling better but was fun to make a few cards. Today was really my first day alone – everyone back to work or gone so was able to just enjoy sitting at my desk and coloring!

One of my favorite stamps sets the CMO104 Trio Aloe Vera and of course it’s matching Cutting Die CDCMO104 Trio Aloe Vera Cutting Die; I also love the size of this thank you- C332 Thank You fits in a 1.75” circle

I also have some news…a few weeks ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I under went double mastectomy on Thursday and I’m home recovering. it’s been quite a shock and I think I’m so a little numb but surgery went well and we are waiting on the biopsy to know what comes next.
