Happy Saturday, y’all! Hope you have something fun planned and good weather to do it in!
My card today is super quick and easy – and comes to you thanks to the All Adorned stamp set in the second Sale-A-Bration Release. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Best Catch For You, Dad!
Whoo-hooo!! It’s Friday again! Happy happy joy joy!
My card today is one of those elusive “masculine” cards. We all sort of have trouble with those, don’t we? We like flowers and embellishments and “pretty” colors, right? But, we don’t usually think of those things when we think of making a card for the dudes in our lives. So it’s happy that Stampin’ Up! listened and brought us the Best Catch stamp set – handily bundled with the great Catch of the Day Framelits. And – I added those elements to…Floral Romance Specialty DSP – and made a perfectly masculine card.
Say what??

Stampin’ Up! Well Written And Well Said Floral for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop
Hey y’all – it’s Thursday, so it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!! Today’s a sketch challenge – and I’m excited to see what everyone comes up with! I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop.
I pulled out the Well Said bundle, complete with the so-awesome Well Written Framelits and added a touch of Country Floral and Gingham to the mix. Take a look-see:
Stampin’ Up! Part of My Painted Season Story
Happy Tuesday, guys! Hope your week is progressing nicely! We’re having a day or two of really gorgeous weather – the rain is done for a minute and we’re hitting the 60’s. The weather is cray cray this year!
For today, I made a cheerful little card with a couple of old faves and a few new winners! Painted Seasons – the stamp set AND the designer paper – plays a strong supporting role to the Part of My Story sentiment. Take a look-see:
Stampin’ Up! Country Flowing Fountain
Happy Saturday, y’all!
Well – last night, at the end of a long and turbulent week, Wayne and I went to dinner with our friends in what has become a routine for us. Not all routines are something to be eagerly anticipated – but this one…definitely is. It’s a nice thing to look forward to each weekend!
Also – did you know that yesterday was – apparently – National Margarita Day? I didn’t until my friend told me – which helped make the dinner decision easier. Mexican it was.
But – they weren’t doing ANYthing special for National Margarita Day.
Mexican. Food. Restaurant. National Margarita Day. Hola?!?
Pero….Nada.
Huh.
Not saying this kept me from having the drink-of-the-day. Cuz I totally did!
Now – my ramblings about my dinner aside, we’ve also got a card – which is, in fact, why you’re here, right? 😉
It’s a clean-and-simple little number, that I made with a sentiment from the Flowing Fountain stamp set with an assist from the new Country Floral Dynamic TIEF and some beautiful Painted Seasons DSP. Take a look-see:
Stampin’ Up! Double-Time Painted Pinecone Season
Good Friday morning, y’all! Hope your week has gone well.
If nothing else, you can at least say it’s gone!
And I’m pretty glad of it, too, cuz mine has been topsy-turvy. My trip has moved (so we’ll be able to meet on Sunday – yeah!). The downside is that it overlaps OnStage AND – as I realized yesterday! – my young friend’s graduation from Vet School. I’m trying to figure out how to do it all, because missing EITHER just isn’t going to fly for me – so…keep your fingers crossed!
For today I made a fun little card using a technique and a stamp set that I really love! It’s the Double-Time technique and the Painted Seasons stamp set (free during Sale-a-Bration!). Take a look-see:
Stampin’ Up! Hi There Flowering Desert
What DAY is it?!?? What day is IT?!?
Yea – you know what day it is. We’re halfway thru a short week!
And – it looks like things they are a-changing for me (travel-wise) so…stay tuned! I may be in town this weekend to spend a little time with y’all on Sunday night! More to come on the continuing perturbations in Mary’s schedule.
Cuz – I know you’re all simply agog with anticipation! 😉
My good-for-any-occasion card today uses a fun little stamp set in the Occasions catalog called Flowering Desert. Take a look-see:
Stampin’ Up! Be Mine & We’ll Be So Hoppy Together!
One of my favorite things about where I live is the sheer volume of the frog song we get to hear every night. Folks – they do NOT say ribbit!! They speak about a 100 different frog languages and they let loose with joyful abandon every night. I so look forward to the time of year we can sleep with the windows open so I can listen to them as I fall asleep.
Please do not take this to mean that I have, have had or will ever have a pet frog…Want to pick up and pet a frog…Want to touch a frog in any way. I just like having them around so I can enjoy their musical talents! 😉
One of the most fun stamp sets in the first Sale-A-Bration release is, without a doubt, the So Hoppy Together set.
Those little frogs – who doesn’t love them!?
Well, I used that set – with the new Hop Around Framelits (which you’re going to be able to get on 1 March!) – and a little bit of Be Mine Stitched Framelits and…well. Take a look-see:
Stampin’ Up! Be Mine All Adorned
Happy Monday, y’all – and it’s a three day weekend for me so it actually IS a Happy Monday! Loves me a three day weekend!
If you were able to join me last night for my Facebook Live, I appreciate you spending part of YOUR weekend – long or otherwise! – with me. If not, and you’d like to see how to make today’s card, take a look at the replay!
