Well – it’s HAWWWMP day again! I love that commercial – and Geico has started re-running them, have you noticed? Along with the caveman series. Those are commercials I don’t particularly mind watching – as opposed to nearly ANY of the other ones!
But – who doesn’t love MikemikemikemikeMIKE!!! 😉
My card today is super quick and easy, thanks to the fun Needle & Thread stamp set and coordinating Needlepoint Nook DSP. Take a look-see:
Happy Super Bowl Sunday, y’all! I know for at least a portion of the country – perhaps mostly in the New England and Los Angelas areas??! – this is a long-awaited day. 🙂 I do enjoy the game – if it’s a good one – but I really mostly enjoy the commercials, let’s be honest! So – I hope they’re good this year. It’s such a let-down when Wayne and I look at each other and think “meh…I’d have fast forwarded thru THAT one!”
Because there IS this big game that a lot of folks will want to watch – including me! – we’re not going to do a video tonight! Sorry! But I’ll be back next week, so don’t despair!
I showed y’all the wonderful gift that our vet sent us to commemorate and remind us of our good horse, Bo. Didn’t see it? Check it right here – scroll down to the Finn Fan Fix! As a result of that kindness, I decided to make them a thank you card. It seemed fittin’ to use the Let It Ride stamp set again – and this time I used sentiments from the awesome new Well Said Cling stamp bundle. Take a look-see:
Happy Happy Hawwmp Day – from…Maryland!
Not Mary. Land.
That would be like…Wayne’s World.
This is Maryland. As in Baltimore!
And it’s cold as a well-digger’s bucket here – but, thankfully, no snow. Oh – there are some piles here and there leftover from the last storm – but the streets are clear and dry.
Which is excellent – cuz I am non-current (by a LONG ways!) on snow and ice driving. And not really interested in renewing that ticket!
So – I have a spring-ish card for you today and it’s a fun one. Butterflies everywhere! Courtesy of the FREE Botanical Butterfly DSP in the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Plus a little Grapefruit Grove Foil – ALSO from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. And my sentiments are from the Well Said Bundle in the Occasions Catalog. Take a look-see:
Hey y’all – it’s Thursday, so it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!! Today’s a sketch challenge – the first one of 2019 AND the first with the 2019 Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs LIVE!! I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop.
I pulled out one of my favorites – the Needle & Thread Stamp set, bundled with the Needlepoint Elements Framelits. Then I threw in a sentiment from the new Well Written Framelits and a some pretty Designer Series Paper. Take a look-see:
Well. It’s HAWWWP Day. And – I DID it! I actually got all the boxes packed and out the door. Cuz – have you heard that Christmas is THIS COMING TUESDAY?? Who knew?!? 😉
I make no promises about WHEN things will arrive, but…God and UPS and USPS willing….arrive they will!
So. Now all I have left to do is a few more bake-y things that I stuck on my list of things to do – cuz….NOT having a list would just be…weird! And I like to feed my surrogate kids at the holidays, so…bake I will!
For now, let’s take a look at a card, shall we? This one uses the new Vibrant Vases stamp set in the 2019 Occasions catalog – which means you’ll be able to get it on 3 Jan 19! (I’m not even going to tell you how far away that date is – I am a BAD source for such things!). A fun little tidbit about this set is that it matches the Vase Builder Punch – which is a current punch in the Annual Catalog (and is bundled with the Vivid Vases stamp set)! I added it to a little Gingham Gala 6″ x 6″ DSP. Take a look-see:
Happy Hawwwmp Day, y’all! And – more importantly and critically – the last day of Online Extravaganza and my Double Peppermint Points Ordering Special! Get those fingers busy and snap up some awesome savings – remember…10% off is FREE SHIPPING!
So…FREE SHIPPING and DOUBLE PEPPERMINTS? Winner winner!!
My card today uses one of the cool new suites in the 2019 Occasions Catalog – the Needlepoint Nook Suite – all of which you’ll be able to get yer mitts on come 3 Jan! I used several of the Needle & Thread images, the bundled Needlepoint Elements Framelits dies and some pretty Needlepoint Nook DSP to make a thank you card. Take a look-see:
Good morning and Happy Happy Hawmp Day from Orlando! Whoo-hoo!!
We had an uneventful trip down yesterday – even if it WAS raining – and got to our condo in good “pretty” time…tip: never get off the freeway. PAY the toll on the Turnpike. That’s all I’m saying about that…
Today is CenterStage – which is being held at Epcot! I’ll head over around lunch time to be a kid-at-heart for a few hours, take in the Wine & Food Festival for a while (and try to walk off the calories – oh heck, who’m I kidding??! I’m leaving the diet at the condo!!). I’m excited!! I love Disney – not gonna lie. And Epcot is awesome. Soaring…here I come!!
But – before I head off to see the Mouse, let me show you a fun little (literally!) notecard I made with the Feather & Frost stamp set and the All Things Thanks set. Take a look-see:
Happy Thursday, y’all – and welcome to another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!! This is another installment of the Joint Blog Hop between the Happy Inkin’ Thursday and Happy Stampers Blog Hop ladies! I hope you really enjoy all the inspiration you can get from our talented folks!
I pulled out the pretty host-exclusive stamp set called Warm Hearted and added some leafy elements. Take a look-see:
Good mornin’, y’all – welcome to another edition of Amy’s Inkin’ Krew team blog hop! Each month we make projects centered around a theme – and this month it’s all about Giving Thanks! We can interpret that any way we want – so…be sure to check and see everyone’s projects – we’ve got a bunch of talented ladies hopping with us this month!
I saw a card a while back by Sue Mohr that created a wreath using punched and die cut leaves. So, for today’s project, I decided to do one of my own. I used the wreath from the Wishing You Well stamp set and added leaves created with the Leaf Punch and the Painted Harvest stamp set. Take a look-see:
Happy Thursday, y’all – and welcome to another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!! Today’s a color week challenge and I know you’ll see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop.
I took a little inspiration from a sample project in the 2018 Holiday Catalog for some of the elements I used on my card today – specifically the muslin Santa’s Bags. I used them along with the cool Falling Leaves bundle. Take a look-see:
