I know it’s a little early for Easter, but with Spring Break starting soon, I thought this card would be a very appropriate way to celebrate an early easter. Last week it was about tulips but daffodils are a beautiful spring bloom too! I have trouble growing them myself so paper is the next best […]

ANNIVERSARY GREETINGS
Happy Monday to you and welcome! Today’s anniversary card features the blending technique. I CASED this card from page 22 of the January-June 2022 Mini Catalogue. Since I don’t have the Ombre Gift Bags(page 137 Annual Catalogue), I decided to create my own version. First, I pulled out the Smokey Slate and Evening Evergreen inks […]
WELL HELLO THERE
Hello and thank you for stopping by today. It’s Friday and I’m ending the week with a happy bouquet of Sunflowers! Remember the Jar of Flowers stamp set(152515)? It has a nice selection of bouquets to stamp and colour and I picked the Sunflowers to add a little sunshine to the end of the week. […]
CELEBRATING TULIPS
Tulips, in my mind, are the true harbingers of spring, so I created some just to get a head start on the season. As I said yesterday, I planted some red and yellow tulips last fall so can hardly wait to see them poke their pretty heads through the snow. The Timeless Tulips stamp set(158327) […]
PATIENTLY WAITING FOR SPRING
That title might be a little bit of a white lie, lol, because I can hardly wait for spring to arrive!

The Flowering Rain Boots bundle(157691) delivers with those tiny tulips done in Magenta Madness. I planted red tulips last fall […]
FUN WITH STITCHING
Welcome to Monday and whole new week! Today’s card features some fancy stitching! But, not the real kind of stitching, I went faux for this. Here’s the story, I follow Stampin’ Up! on Facebook and they posted a card that featured the Stitchery Stamp set(155074) that’s on page 25 of the Annual Catalogue. I didn’t […]

SMILE FRIEND
Today’s cheerful card sends smiles a two happy daisies. I did a little blending first with a Blending Brush and Daffodil Delight ink and then stamped those happy daisies (Daisy Lane stamp set 149325) in Crushed Curry ink. The matching Medium Daisy punch(149517) made it really easy to add layers. The shape of the greetings […]
