Happy Valentine's Day


Super quick post since I am late posting and wanted to share one more Valentine card before the day was over. The image is from MFT "Pure Innocence". I used my Spellbinders lacy rectangle to do the edging of the card. The image was colored with my Copic markers to match paper.

Happy Valentine's Day

Oh Yes/No Another Blue Valentine


Hi Everyone, I promise this will be my last blue polka dot Valentine I share with you. This super simple card is just squares I cut to 1 1/4 squares, offset them a tad and stitched them. A simple sentiment was stamped on bottom to finish it off. I decided to add a button to lessen it's plainness. The heart template and paper are both from Lasting Impressions.

Thanks for stopping by, enjoy your Sunday.

Nice Lazy Day Card


Hi, Just wanted to share a quick card I made. It is perfect for the day as Kathy relaxes from her surgery. She said it was the easiest surgery ever! How nice, I mean if you have to have surgery to begin with, we all hope it will go well.

I have been playing with a lot of polka dot paper lately. I just seem to keep picking it up every time I go to make a card. I also, have started playing with my growing collection of MFT's "Pure Innocence" stamps. Aside from them being adorable, I think the reason I like them so much is they lend themselves to paper piecing so easily. For this card I used "Bedtime Story". The paper is from Daisy Bucket's and called "In the Meadow". I colored it using Copic markers and added some brown and white polka dot ribbon to complete it.

Relax and enjoy your day, thanks for stopping by.

Soft Valentine's Card


Hi, I did tell you how much I love this Smooth Sailing Paper from Lasting Impressions. Every time I go to make a card I seem to be picking it up. Here is a pretty simple Valentine's card. I stamped the greeting from a company no longer around
(Come Clean Designs) with Color Box French Blue chalk ink. I used L9695 and L9064 templates by Lasting Impressions (Hearts) and mounted them on a piece of white stock embossed with my Cuttlebug Swiss dot folder.

Thanks for stopping by, stay warm temperatures are in the negative numbers here ...brrrr

Valentine Box



Good Morning today my share is a cute little Valentine's box I made. I covered a saved heart shaped box with some "Guava Dot" Lasting Impressions paper then sanded the edges. I added a band of paper from We R Memory Keepers "White Out" collection to the top. I cut out a giant heart from chipboard , covered it with same paper. After stamping this cutie from MFT and
coloring it to match I added some lace that I picked up at a garage sale for a nostalgic look to finish it off. All that is missing is some homemade yummies to fill it:)


Thanks for stopping by, enjoy your day!
