Stampin’ Up! Happiness Surrounds Sneak Peek!

Posted on October 16, 2018 by stampsnlingers

Mornin’, my peeps – hope you’re having a great week! It’s gorgeous – again! – here in Colorado – although…it was like…13F when I got up this morning. Which is approximately 50F too cold for this girl! 😉

My card today is from the soon-to-be-available Happiness Surrounds stamp set. This is a set in the Snowflake Showcase suite coming in November. It’s only going to be available for a limited time – so be ready to snag it up on 1 Nov. I paired it with some more pumpkin-y goodness from the Toil & Trouble DSP. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Just a Note to Wish You Well

Posted on October 14, 2018 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all! Hope your weekend is going swimmingly!

WE will not be swimming – cuz of how it’s colder than a well-digger’s lunch bucket here (that’s REALLY cold in case you’re unfamiliar with the analogy!).

So – I’ve come to the sad realization that I just don’t have enough internet speed/bandwidth here to do a FB Live – so…we’re going to have to skip that for today. I’ll try to be back next week, though!

I made a simple little card using the Wishing You Well stamp set and some pumpkins from the Toil & Trouble DSP. Take a look-see:

Posted on May 19, 2018 by stampsnlingers

Hey guys! Happy Saturday! Hope you’ve got something fun planned! We watched the Black Panther movie on DVD last night, so we’re all caught up – which means…I’m going to go see the Marvels movie today. Before it’s totally out of the theaters! 🙂 And I think the Man will go to Doggie Camp for the first time since “the incident”!

So – let’s do this, shall we? I used the pretty Stitched All Around Bundle (which coordinates with the Stitched Labels Framelits) for my card. And then I added some Wood Textures and Share What You Love DSPs. Take a look-see:

Posted on April 10, 2018 by stampsnlingers

Mornin’, y’all! It’s Tuesday so…time for another Stamp Ink Paper challenge!

I decided to use a stamp set from the new 2018-2019 Annual Catalog – and it’s one that I WON on a Prize Patrol! It’s called In Every Season – and it’s one that grabbed my eye the moment I saw it as I flipped thru the glorious pages of the catty!

Notice there are 12 flowers? Perfect for a 12-month calendar. Or a sampler. Or an inchie card!

I used one of the flowers – and a sentiment from the Special Celebrations stamp set (carrying over!) – plus some ombre sponging to make my card. Take a look-see:
