To create I used the arrow from Large Stitched Journaling, Happy Easter set and Milo's ABC's from Lawn Fawn.

Have a fun filled Easter and watch out for black jelly beans.  Blessings to you!

Dino-mite Brothers Birthday Card

Good Morning this card I am sharing today is a Tri-Fold and decorated on all 6 panels. It was inspired by a card my daughter made for me for my birthday.  The Lawn Fawn "Critters from the Past" was perfect to use for my brother since he is older. Lawn Fawn to create it.

 I used many different sets mostly from
Lawn Fawn Sets used included:
Critters of the Past (One of my favorite sets)
Bannerific for the banners
Milo's ABC's
Happy Everything
Sunny Skies stamp set and dies for all the clouds
and I ended it using Stitched Journaling banner (The End)
Scraps of Let's Polka paper for balloons

Other stamps and paper used include Polka Dot Blue from Lasting Impressions, DCWV (sandy colored paper),Martha Stewart balloon punch, and Inky Antiacs (saying inside of card). Copic markers used for
all coloring.

Should my OLDER brother wish to toss this card I will break his fingers!!!  It took me forever to make:)



Hope you enjoy it and have a great day.

Let's Roll Goes to the Burbs!

Who doesn't love a good pun?  With Lawn Fawn stamps it is so easy to mix and match to create cute cards.  I decided it would be fun to combine their Critters in the Burbs with their Let's Roll set.  More specifically I wanted to add a kitty to the mix  :)  What kitty wouldn't love to be surrounded with all that sushi goodness:).
Instead of Soy Sauce I opted for a jug of milk.  In one of cards below I cut top off the soy sauce bottle to create the kitty's bowl.

Stamps used:Critters in the Burbs and Let's Roll, Milo ABC,s
Paper:  Hello Sunshine and Let's Polka
Large Stitched Journaling, Spring Showers,Birthday Banner



Enjoy your afternoon!

It is a Parade!

Who doesn't love a parade?  This little bunny brigade was created using several different stamp set and dies from Lawn Fawn.  To create the little buckets I used the soup bowl die from "On the Mend".  The wheels are super easy to make I used a standard size hole punch and a mini hole puncher.   The only bunny I had to work with was the "Winter Bunny"  so I jazzed him up with a pretty purple scarf!  The lamb is from "Critters on the Farm"  it was a tad bit big so I trimmed so of his fat down .   I also used "Sunny Skies" for cloud with the "Everything Wording".  I had to add some little ladybugs to add to the fun!  Grass was cut with funky scissors I have.  Copics were used for coloring and paper paper "Pink Lemonade.


I hope you are enjoying your day, thanks for stopping by.

Hello, I think anyhow that has ever been in love or had their heartbroken can attest to how true this next card is.  The cute little set comes from Simon Says Stamps.  It is called Stickin Cute and that it is :).  Heart is cut using Spellbinder heart die and then colored to match his cute colored nose.  I colored the skunk with C1-C9 markers. The wording with the exception of word " Love" is from the set.  Love is from Lawn Fawn.  The zig zag was traced in white using  the pattern from a pair of funky scissors I have.


Have a great evening thanks for stopping by.

Happy New Year

Stamps :  Paper Smooches
Balloons: Martha Stewart

Holiday Cards

Just as I finished up my Holiday cards that I had been stressing about since I have been in a creative slump I created these beauties.  Both of them were simple to create and went together quickly with little stamping.  The first one I embossed the card front with a holly die then die cut "Holiday" out using silver glitter paper.  The image used  for the "O" is from Stampin Up. I then completed it with matching ribbon.

The Season Greetings card is a CASE card I saw on Pinterest.  I loved the cutout style!  Using Versamark and gold embossing powder from CTMH I stamped wording onto white card stock which I layered on to red linen card stock. The pattern paper is from LYB.  I purchased a ton of it on close out last year and have been trying to put it to use since.  Looks like I finally found the perfect use for it:). The flower stamp was colored using Copics. The swirl behind the flower is from Spellbinders which was cut from gold stock.

I now am ready for next year Bring it on I will not be stumped for ideas :)

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

New Love

I can not believe I still have followers after my lengthy absence.  I have been creating super cards lately but have been  lax in sharing.   I will try in coming weeks to continue to update.  Today's post is all about my quest to come up with a holiday card I purchased some adorable stamps and dies from  Lawn Fawn recently and came up with a quick holiday card using their winter sparrows set and die.  This is the first time I have used this company's stamps and dies.  If you have not bought from them you must try.  Easy to stamp and super cute. I also, bought the Christmas Owl set thinking I would make a holiday card with it but instead I opted for a card suitable for Valentine's Day instead.  How fun it was to play with my new goodies.
