So I’ve had a little bit of stamping time…since I always need Belated Birthday cards I started with that!
Next I moved to a birthday card… this started when we cleaned up some of our stuff from days on the road. We had some card kits from our alcohol ink project and I love these colors.
Next was a simple wedding card
And last a baby card!
Hope you enjoy these cards as I enjoyed making them 🤪😊
Hello! Thank you all for the kind messages yesterday! We have some new stuff coming and one of them is a Mother’s Day card that can be downloaded, printed and then colored. With the card also comes a test sheet to keep track of markers with various paper types. So many beautiful coloring options. Some examples and links are below!
Also available is a just a note and sending love in this time of sorrow.
These images are not available as stamps but we are planning to make card kits soon.
If looking for bouquet stamps, here are two available: G376 Wheat Bouquet 4, G375 Floral Bouquet

Happy Wednesday! Love cards can be sent on any day, not just Valentine’s. This dry embossing folder is by Cuttlebug and I believe it has been discontinued but might still be found on Ebay.. or another heart folder would work too. For circles, I always stamp first and then cut! It is easier to line up the punch or cutting die than the stamp but do what works best for you. The coffee beans and cup were colored with alcohol ink markers. Some other options I want to try for this card is a brown swatch behind the white strip and the stitched hearts on top of the solid. Links are below!
Good afternoon!
Who doesn’t love a word search?! I had so much fun making this card! The white paper is dull glossy and all the images are colored with alcohol ink markers. Front swatch is 1.5×5.5″, center swatch is 2.75×5.25″ and swatch on right is 4×5.25″. Scrap pieces were used for the flags and word key box. Links are below!

Summer has arrived here in WI! In the form of hot and muggy but I’m not complaining. However, I did turn on the air conditioner! Lovely sweet card today using my four square Cutting Die!
I made this sweet card yesterday for a friend of mine and even already mailed it. One of the best things about being off the road…is all the cards I make actually go to people to enjoy instead of winding up in the booth!

Back with Valentine’s! On this card, the heart border on the left was created with A190 Tiny Heart stamp. The owl was colored with alcohol ink markers. Don’t look too close to the words! I was using dull gloss paper and my hands had some lotion so I smudged it a bit when I was glueing the pieces together. 🤦🏻♀️
Stamps: E256 KB’s Bookish Owl, C226 Hoo will be my Valentine?, C320 Handmade Card, A190 Tiny Heart
Copic Markers: E37 Sepia, E55 Light Camel, R32 Peach, E93 Tea Rose, Y17 Golden Yellow
Artist’s Loft Markers: E10 Mocha, B2 Ice Blue
The ribbon holes were created with EK Success Vertical Slot punch.
Have a great weekend!
A little break from valentines with yesterday’s sympathy and today’s birthday card. I love these skinny candles and love blending the alcohol ink markers. I had one little issue with the dark blue that it just wasn’t blending well. I tried putting it on first and then the lighter color and then tried reverse. Not sure why it dried so fast but oh well! That sometimes happens. Things don’t always go as planned. Still love how these look though!
Stamps: B302 Wish Big, EE53 Skinny Candles, C302 Blow Out the Candles
The candles come in a set of reverse images so when stamped together, there is more variation. There is also a cutting die for them if we needed one to pop up. Link is here > https://shopec.com/shop/ols/products/cdee53-skinny-candles-cutting-die-cd5-skn-cnd-ctt
For the inside:

Or
G352 > https://shopec.com/shop/ols/products/g352-celebrate-bday-special-g35-clb-bdy-
I haven’t decided which one to use yet but am leaning more towards G350.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!

Hello all! For this card, I used three scallop ovals again with a patterned paper in the background. The white paper is dull gloss and here is the link – https://shopec.com/shop/ols/products/dull-glossy-paper. Stamp links are below!

Happy Wednesday!
Keeping it simple with this card. First, cut out three scalloped ovals of white dull gloss paper and stamp the flowers. Very important to set the ovals aside to dry before coloring. Then stamp the words on the lower portion of a 4×5.25” piece of white dull gloss. Again, important to let ink dry before coloring and assembling! The middle scallop oval is popped up with a 3D dot.
