As you know we are in the middle of Sale-a-bration, Stampin’ UP!’s annual celebration where you can get FREE stuff when you place on order at my on-line store. One of the most popular stamp sets is ‘The Gang’s All Meer’ with the most adorable Meerkats.
The images are just perfect for coloring and today I have busted out my heat tool again and created a jolly little gang of cheeky meerkats to help celebrate a birthday!
What a cheerful little chappie this bee is – so cute offering a flower along with his thanks – don’t ask why I think this is a boy rather than a girl bee – it just looks like a little fella is my only reason!
The Bee Thankful set is a single stamp, it is nice and big so covers a lot of space, allowing you to make a quick thank you card! I paired it with the 2018 -2020 In colors using the Stampin Write Markers
Stampin Up have a range of 50 different colors in the color families – each one has ink and card and a matching marker pen. There are ink refills for the ink pads but did you know that you could refill the markers using the same ink as for reinking your stamp pads? Continue reading

Have been a little bit quiet over the last few days, I had a Christmas/Holiday card Stamp Camp on Friday and Saturday – I spent most of Thursday preparing for it which included tying a bunch of ribbon bows!…. and completely forgot to write something for my blog.

Don’t get to make too many ‘New Baby’ cards, so when my husband asked me to make one for a co-worker who had just had their first baby I was a bit of a loss as I don’t really have much in the way of baby themed stamp sets. A closer look at my stamp shelf revealed ‘One Tag Fits All’ and it had the perfect stamp for my card.
I really like the technique used on these cards, I made 3, each for a slightly different occasion, birthday, anniversary and a thank you…….. but I think it worked well for each of them. Continue reading
