This card uses the very popular Hearth and Home Thinlits Dies which gives us a cozy view from a window at the hills and lake beyond. It also continues my theme of digging into my stash of Designer series paper, this time the Love Blossoms DSP Paper stack which I used a lot for my valentine projects but works very well for this card.

Baby Shower Elephants and Chevrons!
A dear friend, and a member of my Stampin’ Up! team is about to become a grandmother! She held a shower for the mother-to-be a couple of weeks ago and I was fortunate to be invited.
The baby’s colors and his nursery are in gray and yellow with chevrons and elephants ~ perfect subject for some punch art! I love to do punch art and it is a while since I shared any.
Happy Leap Year Day…………..
Happy Leap Year Day ~ We don’t get the chance to say that very often! I know a couple of people born on February 29th – it is nice to be able to wish them a happy birthday on the actual day.
I shared a card the other day using the ‘What I Love’ exclusive Sale-a-bration stamp set. That card used lovely subtle shades – the card I have to share to day uses the big bold Melon Mambo and Tuxedo Black!!!

Multi~paneled using Birthday Blooms and Timeless Textures ~ Video
From time to time I am asked to make a card for a particular occasion – I love to do commissions! I ask a few questions about the recipient….. color preferences, ornate, lots of bling, gender etc and then I start to put it all together.
This is a recent commission – I have done this style before and it starts with a piece of cardstock 12 x 12 and thru scoring and folding its finished size in 6 x 6.
I have included the link to the original video at the bottom of the post…. enjoy!

Sunburst Sayings and Timeless Textures + video~ Stampin’ Up!
Every so often my Stampin’ Up! grandma organizes an event for her team to join in, back in January she organized a card swap using products from the Occasions catalog.
Each person had to design and make a card for each person ~ there were 15 this time, we send them to her she sorts them and sends them back and we all get 15 different cards in return. This is one of the lovely things about being part of the SU family!.

Bloomin’ Heart Thinlit ~ from Stampin’ Up!
Today is Super Bowl Sunday – I have been a fan of American football since 2003 when I went to my first (and only) game at the Texas Stadium. I support the Dallas Cowboys, partly because they were playing the day I went to a game and partly because they are the ‘local’ team to where we live in North Texas.
When your read this I shall be watching the game and rooting for the Denver Broncos ~ for no other reason that I like Peyton Manning !
Read on for today’s card………………..
