Some Small Enclosure Cards Featuring Papertrey Ink You Have My Heart Stamps


Popping in with a small set of one layer 2 x 2 inch cards made using my Papertrey Ink You Have My Heart stamp set and a sentiment from The Greetery Love Song Sentiments stamp. That is the new Distress Oxide color Kitsch Flamingo and a Close to My Heart Cranberry ink.  Cute, simple and fun.  Tomorrow's the big day.  Hoping you are ready!

Valentines By Katie Using The Greetery Posy Pocket Dies


My daughter had a few days off in a row, something that is very rare.  She decided to come home for those few days and while she was here she decided to make some valentines.  I thought I would share her work here with you today.  The blooms are a combination of The Greetery Botanticuts Forget-me-not dies and Lovely Blooms stamps and dies.  I had stamped and colored these in a major use session when I got those products.  She put them together, tucked into the leafy heart and a sentiment on the inside using The Greetery Heart Leaf Jumbo Posy Pocket Die following Betsy Veldman's video as instruction.  



Other than the obvious help in that I'd made those blooms, she made these cards all by herself.  Quite the blossoming cardmaker and I'm sure the friends and family that received these cards will be tickled.  The big day is almost here.  Hope you are ready!

Multi-Purpose Love Cards Featuring Concord and 9th Stitched Turnabout Stamps





I had heat embossed using my rose gold embossing powder and the Concord and 9th Stitched Turnabout stamps a couple of years ago.  These card fronts sat in the stash waiting to be made into cards.  So sad!  I'm sure if you are a regular cardmaker that you can relate.  We all have high expectations that sometimes are sidelined due to other priorities as life gets in the way.

I am proud that these cards are finally made as I believe they are quite pretty and I'm pleased with how they turned out.  The cream die cuts were made using Waffle Flower's Sprigs dies and I lightly colored with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink.




Super glad these cards finally made it to completion.  Makes me want to get out that stamp set and use it some more!

Valentines Featuring Honey Bee Stamps Coffee Cut Card Die


I had some extra die cuts from a few years ago using patterned paper and the Honey Bee Stamps Coffee Cut Card dies.  I figured they might be a good set to put together for Valentine's Day this year.  I just love how they pair with the die cut heart and stamps made using my Papertrey Ink You Have My Heart stamp and die set.  








Lot's of cards that pair nicely.  So much fun!

Happy Birthday Featuring Heartfelt Creations Birds and Blooms Stamps and Dies


 Brandy shared this pretty and happy card with me.  She made the card using her Heartfelt Creations Birds and Blooms stamps and dies.  These birdies look so dainty and colorful sitting on the floral branch.  The background clouds make the scene come to life.  So pretty!
