handmade greeting cards

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.

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.

We have another card kit ready for shipping! This one we added sparkle with a glitter pen and it looks amazing. Ribbon and cutting are options!

And not cut out! It really doesn’t take too long to cut out but I find cutting out relaxing.:

Boy, Christmas is coming fast! Don’t forget we do have a trip planned for Dec 13-18 where we won’t be shipping orders.

Bee Happy Paper

Dull Glossy Paper, flowers, pattern paper

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.

Stamps Used: G308 Trio Sunflowers; CC98 Sunflower w bee sm; EE85 Sunflower w Bee Med

With sympathy – July 25

Dull Glossy Paper, With Sympathy

Happy Thursday! Hope everyone is enjoying the summer so far. We have another sympathy card but really need more birthday cards. We have 4+ birthdays in our family this month. Hopefully I’ll have time for stamping this weekend! Or I’ll need to dig through my stash!

Stamp links are below.

Sympathy Cards

Hello. We’ve been working hard around the house on projects but I have also needed sympathy cards. I did a little stamping to stock up my stash. Some layouts are old stand byes that I use.

We finally got some hot weather in WI! It’s been in the 90’s. We are having trouble getting our pool chemicals right since we didn’t get the pool opened last year. I’ve been anxious to do some exercising in the pool. So we bought a bunch more chemicals hoping to get it right! We are having thunderstorms tonight so I think I might do some stamping. Hope your weekend is going good.

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!

Have a good week!

Dull Glossy Paper, Thinking of You

Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th! Also, in the holiday excitement and the projects we had started, I forgot the links in my previous post so I have included them at the bottom on this post.

A lot of flower cards coming! The garden is full of blooms and is so inspiring. The dahlias that we have in the front of the house are just gorgeous! They are annuals in our area but because they are in pots, we overwinter them in the heated garage and in the spring pull them out again. They’ve done great and I love the pink and yellow colors! So happy we get to see them year after year. 😊

Dull Glossy Paper, Thinking of You

This is a repeat layout that I love! It’s very simple and comes together quickly. Links for stamps are below and links to two previous blog posts with this rose and layout. I have several more cards in progress with different styles and hopefully I’ll get back to stamping soon. Happy Wednesday!

Congrats – new home

Dull Glossy Paper, New Home

It was lovely to hear from many of you and we miss seeing you all on the road!

Here is a quick card for someone who has a new home. I’m a little disappointed with the glue spots on the background paper and need to remember to use less but love the simple look and the colors.

Stamps:

CMO104 – Aloe Vera Trio
