DD Jan Release

Hello Stamping Friends!

I'm sharing some fun projects today using products from Divinity Designs!!

The January Release is now available!!  

Filled with so much love!!

First up, I am featuring the NEW Conversation Hearts Box and Puzzle!!

I just LOVE it!!!

I love this vintage paper as well!  I used the NEW Love Journal A2 Card Fronts and VintageValentine’s Bookmarks! So pretty!!

I die cut the Puzzle twice. Once from the pretty pattern paper and then again from a piece of kraft cardstock. I adhered the pattern paper to the kraft layers. This was perfect to help make the pieces thicker. And best part makes the pieces actually look like puzzle pieces!! The top right piece is flipped over to show what I mean.

When I showed my son, he thought it was so cool! Couldn't believe how much the pieces actually looked like puzzle pieces.

So many fun possibilities!!

Mr. & Mrs.

Hello Stamping Friends!


I have a elegant Wedding card to share with you using fun new dies from Frantic Stamper!!

When I seen the beautiful new Heart Rose Die from FS, I thought it would create the perfect elegant Wedding Card!  And since I normally don't have too many Wedding cards made ahead, I thought I would run with the idea!

I ended up using it to create a shaker card!!

What a beautiful die!!  I love roses so I was drawn to this die instantly!

The "mr & mrs" sentiment are from the Mr. & Mrs. stamp set from Dare 2B Artzy!

The hubby and I will be celebrating our 10th Anniversary Friday!!  It's so hard to believe we've been married for 10years already!  And together for 16!  Time sure flies!!

Have a lovely day!

Hugs and Kisses with IBS

Good Morning Stamping Friends!!

I am on the Inspired By Stamping Blog today, featuring a sweet Valentine card!

I started out by die cutting a heart out of thin scrap paper from my Cameo.

I had the idea to use this heart stencil I created to create a large looking stamp, using a few little stamps from the My Valentine's stamp set!

I used two of the hearts, the "x" and "o"!

 Here's a look at my in progress stamping:

Isn't it fun!

I absolutely LOVE how this card turned out!

The heart looks as though it could have been stamp!

This was a "happy dance" moment!!  Love it!

The beautiful "Happy Valentine's Day", "hugs" and "kisses are also from the My Valentine's stamp set!

The "&" is from the Big Wonderful stamp set!

So fun!

I encourage you to create some of your own stencils!!

Happy Anniversary with GI

Happy Monday Stamping Friends!

It's my day to post on the Great Impression Stamps Blog!

Today is a special day for me! :)  It's mine and my hubby's anniversary!  We've been together for 13 years! Wow!  And married 7 years now!  Just seems like yesterday he won over my heart!  Time sure flies!

I created this Anniversary card for him:

A simple, yet elegant Anniversary card!

I love the new Dotted Heart Border (E826)!
Why?  Well the second I saw the stamp I knew it was going to be so fun to use to be able to use the hearts as a template to create your own heart "blinged" embellishments!  There is perfect spacing between each dot, for you to add bling to each of them!  No more needing to buy special heart shaped bling!  YAY!

I stamped the smaller heart in this instance just above the left of the Happy Anniversary (E42) sentiment. I then used silver bling, which I added on each dot!  You no longer can see the stamped heart!  And instead just created your own heart shaped bling!
I love it!

Heart Shaped Cards

Happy Monday Crafty Friends!

So sorry for my lack of posts lately, I have been really sick!  But hopefully will be feeling myself again soon.

Just had two quick cards I wanted to share with you that I created last month.

With it being sweetest day last month, I created this fun card for my hubby:

I used the Heart Mini Album Die from Top Dog Dies to get the heart shaped card!!

I just LOVE the "I Love You More" sentiment from Inspired By Stamping set Big Wishes II!

And an Anniversary card:

Again I used the Heart Mini Album Die to get the heart shaped card!

Used some of my lovely Creative Inspirations Paint to add shimmer to the heart!!

I used Inspired By Stamping set All Year Wishes II for the Anniversary sentiment! (LOVE the font!!)

So elegant and lovely!!

Have a wonderful day!
