Sassy Salutations has 6 different greetings in a really zany font, I used it on a card I shared a few weeks ago. This stamp set has been available for a few years and although it was on my wish list it never made it into my shopping basket! Once it did end up in my shopping basket I played around with it and made a card for each of the greetings. This week I am going to share them with you.

For All Things ~ Stampin’ Up!
For all Things contains images and words that you would normally use for Thanksgiving and the Autumn. It has the most beautiful spray of leaves which makes a lovely focal point on a card. I paired this with the birthday wishes from the Wetlands stamp set and am thrilled with the result.
Thoughts and Prayers ~ Stampin’ Up!
This is the 2nd time in just over a week I have used this stamp set, it has been available for a couple of years but I recently added it to my stamp collection and just love the 2 flowing images it has as well as the thoughtful and heartfelt sentiments. Continue reading
Mint Macaron Wedding Anniversary ~ Stampin’ Up!
I am not entirely sure what the collective noun is for a lot of anniversary cards, so I am just going to call them a ‘Bunch’
I have a bunch of family/friend wedding anniversaries in the second half of each year so I tend to make 6 – 7 of them so then they are ready for signing and posting.
Sassy Thank you ~ Stampin’ Up!
Stampin’ Up!’s Stamp Set ‘ Sassy Salutations has been available for a couple of years and it has been on my wish list for that long, but for some reason it has never made it into my shopping basket! When I saw it was in the latest 2015 ~ 2016 catalog I knew it was a sign and this time it was one of the first stamp sets on my order!
Another Shower Card
Well would you believe a 4th baby card!! This time for a young couple who live in our old neighborhood and expecting their first child later in the summer. They had a baby shower last weekend and it was different from my previous baby shower experiences as spouses were also invited rather than being just a girlfriend get-together – a refreshing change.
This card is a little different from the others I have made…….
Footeling with Stampin’ Up! Goodies.
I had an honorary aunt, she was my Mum’s best friend, who had known me since I was about 6 years old, I always called her Aunt as a sign of love and respect and continued to do so even into my mid 50’s when we lost her.
She used to have an expression she called ‘footeling’ which basically was doing something without a clear direction or purpose….. but simply to do!
So …………………… I was footeling around with some of the new In-colors card, inks and punches the other day and came up with this card………..
July Stamp Set of the Month
After a month off I am back with another Stamp Set of the Month which is my on-line /virtual class.
This month I have chosen ‘Sprinkles of Life’ from Stampin” Up!. This set has 22 different pieces, a mixture of images and greetings that cover a whole host of occasions. Stampin’ Up! donates $3 to the Ronald McDonald charities for each of these sets they sell!
Stampin’ Up’s Clearance Rack Updated!!!
Patriotic…… Happy Birthday
This is a card for the fellas in our lives. I usually struggle to make ‘guy-type’ cards and I don’t think I am alone in that. But I set myself a challenge a couple of months ago to do a class featuring 4 different designs of cards for our men-folk. Quite unconsciously this ended up as red, white and blue and since we shall be celebrating July 4th later this week I thought it was a perfect time to share.
