Stampin’ Up Display Stamper 2014 Submission
So, every year I go to the Stampin’ Up convention… and every year I’m blown away by the amazing ideas and inspiration on all the different display boards. (To see what I’m talking about, here are a few past posts I’ve done showing the display boards.) Well, this year they are doing a call for…
A Masculine Card with Six Sided Sampler
Quick, name a stamp set that you just had to have but have since used once – or not at all! For me, that has been the Six Sided Sampler stamp set. I saw lots of cool things done with this set and I loved the hexagon punch that coordinated, so I picked it up…
Masculine Monday with Burlap, Woodgrain, and Word Bubbles!
I know many of us struggle with masculine cards. I often find it so easy to reach for my flowers and rhinestones and pinks and whatnot; but when I need to make a card for a guy, those go-to items suddenly don’t seem to be quite the right fit. Well, as luck would have it,…
My Favorite Banner Card Yet!
I just realized this morning that I hadn’t shared this card yet and I love it so much that I figured I needed to fix that! This is my favorite card yet that I’ve made with the Sale-a-Bration set Banner Blast and I know a lot of it is the color… and the bling… and…
A Rugged Thank You Card
As I was working on Thank You cards recently, I decided to take a break from all the flowers and pinks that I seemed to be using lately and try to come up with a card that could be useful for a guy or a girl. I wanted to use my new Starburst Sayings stamp…

Dress Shirt Card for Dad
You would think that for all the stamping classes I run and projects I make for swapping and my blog, I would always be prepared for holidays. Ha! They sneak up on me like my 3 yr old when I think he is taking a nap and jump out at me at the last minute. …
Just Wanted to Say You’re Amazing!
No seriously, you are! As I think back to how my life has evolved and changed over the last few years – between major moves and babies and family adventures; I love that I’ve always had my friends and stamping community there for support and to keep me sane! From friends in facebook groups to…
Stampin’ Up! Color Changes + FREE SHIPPING this weekend!
This morning I woke up and there were lots of big announcements from Stampin’ Up! From color changes to free shipping on all orders being offered this weekend… it was a lot to take in. But I’ve tried to sum up the details for you so you can be in the know as well and…
Faux Quilted International Bazaar Thank You
With today’s card, I was trying for something that could be “manly” or at least not pink and frilly. So, while flipping through my designer papers, I thought the International Bazaar pack would be a great one for the guys in my life. I mixed and matched the papers from the pack in strips…
