The old saying is “April showers bring May flowers” and that is very true up here in northeastern BC. We actually plant later in May, after the long weekend because we can usually expect a little snow at that time. Our snow is disappearing quickly so I’m “jumping the gun” a little with today’s card […]

BALLONS AND BIRTHDAYS GO TOGETHER
Ballons and Birthdays just go together I think! The month of April has many birthdays for our family so I’m stocking up on fresh birthday cards. Where else can you find great balloons but from the Balloon Adventures stamp set that’s in the 2017 Occasions Catalogue. A little confetti adds that extra celebratory feel too. […]
HERE’S A SIMPLE EASTER CARD FOR YOU
Easter is coming quickly so I got creative with the Little Cuties and Made with Love stamp sets for today’s card. The Little Cuties has the chick image that I was looking for and then it was easy to add that cute little bunny from the Made with Love set. When I was finished I […]

It is one of your Free Choices from Sale-A-Bration and it goes away forever this Friday, March 31st (insert sad face here). I’m calling this card “Avant Garden Collage” because it is a 2-step Stamping set and lends […]
A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
Ha, did that title get your attention? This is a public service announcement though to let you know that some things are going away from the Stampin’ Up! catalogue soon! Like all of the 2015-2017 In Colors! April 10th is the day so I thought that you should know now that it is a very […]
FLORAL AFFECTION FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL
Today’s card share was created with the Love & Affection stamp set with a little layout help from the matching Floral Affection Textured impressions embossing folder set. There’s nothing like and bright and cheery card to send to someone special in your life. The embossing folders provided the inspiration for the layout of the flowers […]
