Creating connections with the
sweetness of stamping!
What a pretty image the new stamp set from the Occasions mini catalog, Soft Summer creates. This is one of the sample cards from the mini catalog. I love the two-step stamping that makes it easy to create a watercolor effect. I used a blender pen and some ink from the riding hood red…
As soon as I saw the butterfly in Simple Friendship in the new catalog, I knew I had to get it! I love the butterfly! I also had to get all the new Sizzix texture plates. It’s hard to tell from this picture, but I used the swirl texture on the baja breeze. It adds…
I love the way these cards turned out. I used the Urban Garden DSP and Fifth Avenue Floral for the card on the right. I embossed “thanks” in vanilla on the basic gray and added some vanilla hodgepodge hardware to make it stand out. As I was playing with the card I reversed the paper…

This is a card I made with the Love You Much Bundle. I really like being able to pull the colors from the Designer Series Paper so I don’t have to try to figure out what colors to put together. I used pink pirouette, riding hood red, very vanilla, and close to cocoa as the…
Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving? This year, we’re going out of town to visit my parents. We’re looking forward to spending time with them. Meanwhile, I saw this cute turkey card and thought it would be fun to make. I made the turkey using punches! Isn’t that fun? I used the 1 3/8 circle…
Ok, now that I’ve done a winter card, I’m rewinding and doing a fall card. Can’t skip fall. Luckily there are some trees that turn colors here which is lovely to see. I used Lovely as a Tree again to create this card. I used sage shadow, chocolate chip, really rust and more mustard markers…
