Today I am letting the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (DSP) do all the hard work on this masculine card. I have shared with you before that I do find it a challenge to make card for the fellas so this pack of paper with its huge variety of textured patterns is perfect for these
This is a quick and easy card, using my paper trimmer and a couple of punches, along with the Here’s A Card Stamp Set.

Stampin’ off gives you lighter shades of your ink color, giving you lots more flexibility to create texture on your cards/scrapbook pages. I have used the Seaside Notions Stamp Set to make today’s card which was for my eldest step-sons birthday last week
We are in the last couple of weeks for the Stampin UP! 2018 – 2019 annual catalog which means that stamp sets and other products will be retiring and there are some of my favorites among them. So I am going to use my blog posts to share some of the things that are retiring – along with links so that you can put in your order so you don’t miss out.
Today’s card uses the Tuscan Vineyard Stamp Set ~ one I have used on several cards in the past, this one makes a great guy card.
So …….. time got away from me in the last few days and I missed out on a couple of posts. I like to write them ‘live’ rather than in advance so during the last few days of the US tax season my long tax preparation days got in the way.
Today is the last day I shall be preparing taxes until next year and I have taken a little ‘timeout’ to share a celebration drink with you using one of my present favorite stamp sets – Tuscan Vineyard.
I said it in an ealier post and I am going to say it again……………OH OH this is such a fun stamp set, I just love that rooster, just perfect for the fellas in our lives
I made the card using another of the items we can get for FREE – it is the Home To Roost Stamp set, and I have paired it with the Neutrals Card suite to create a card for the fellas in our lives. We have 3 more weeks of Sale-a-bration – so if you want to get your hands on this great set – place your order now using the link below 🙂
I think we all love to get something for FREE and from January 3rd thru March 31st Stampin’ UP! are offering some really beautiful products that you can get for FREE with each $50 you spend on Stampin’ UP! product….. read on for more information 🙂
Today’s card is another in my Sweet and Simple series where I have set myself a little challenge using a small amount of equipment and supplies – kind of like one of those cookery shows where you are given 3 or 4 ingredients and you have to turn it into a spectacular 4 course meal!
Well today’s specatular card also bids a fond farewell to Emerald Envy – about to retire at the end of May.
I chose the Truly Tailored Stamp Set from the Occasions Catalog – perfect for guy type cards, birthday as well as for Father’s Day coming in June. Continue reading
Earlier this month my husband celebrated a milestone birthday, he is my best friend, the father to two beautiful boys and Grandpa to 4 of the sweetest little granddaughters. He also has the patience of a saint, never says a word when he comes home from work and there is a houseful of ladies stampin’ cuttin’ and stickin’. Bits of glitter and backs of dimensionals on the floor don’t phase him and will happily stand there manning a craft fair booth all day!
So this special fella deserves a special card…………………
This is the fifth card in my mini series using the Sassy Salutations stamp set, which has 6 different greetings in a really zany font.
This time using the ‘Feel Better’ stamp and two versions, one for the girls and one for the guys (we all know that the guys get a lot sicker than the girls so should need a card as well!)
