Good morning and welcome back to the work week! Hope you had a great weekend and stayed warm and dry!
Today’s card will make you think of summer on the porch with a cold glass of lemonade (hard or otherwise!) and a cool breeze wafting. It features the Sweet Citrus bundle and some Twigs & Sprigs embossing! In one of my fave color palettes ever! Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy St. Patrick’s Day! Don’t forget to wear some green somewhere so you don’t get pinched. Is that still a thing?? We (I) used to claim that our flight suits were PLENTY green enough to count! Not sure that was a valid argument but…it was one I’d defend all the way up to the pinch!
My card today is one that is sort of all over the card-making internet – it’s called a Flying Seagull Fun Fold – I assume cuz it sorta looks like a flying bird when you look at it from the top down. I made two of them using two different mountain-strewn pieces of Enjoy the Journey DSP – and decorated them with a sentiment and die cuts from the coordinating Greatest Journey bundle. Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all! It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a pretty color challenge to work with and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table – I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!
We’ve got a cool new Online Exclusive product called Elegant Borders dies – and I’ve been plotting a card in my head since I got it! So – today’s the day. I used it along with the Brushed Bouquet and Happy Labels bundles – plus some pretty Regency Park 6″ x 6″ DSP. Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy President’s Day! If you’ve got the day off – I hope you enjoy the time to decompress! If you have to work….I’m so sorry! 🙁
My card today goes back to a fun – FREE – stamp set in the Jan-Feb 2023 Sale-a-Bration catalog, called Thanks a Bunch! In the spirit of Spring, it features…carrots! And – thanks to the amazing Stamparatus – this card has a whole BUNCH of carrots! Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Friday-before-a-three-day weekend! That’s right – Monday is a holiday! Yeah! Hopefully YOU have it off and can do something fun with family and friends!
Yesterday I pulled a stamp set off my shelf that you may have missed in the Jan – Apr 2023 Mini Catalog. It’s called Spring Blessings and it is VERY sweet! And it gets even sweeter on a cool Corner Tuck Fun Fold card anchored by the wunnermus Country Gingham 6″ x 6″ DSP. Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all! I’m writing this while watching the Super Bowl (so – since I want to watch the game AND the commercials! – it’s taking longer than usual! 😂). I’m rooting for KC – go big or go Mahomes! – so…hopefully I’ll be all happy when you read this! I do have say that the Eagles are..sort of kicking Chief-hiney and taking names, right now! Jalen Hurts is a hoss! But it’s only half-time so there’s lots of game left!
The card I have for you today features the gorgeous Marigold Moments bundle and a little Rain or Shine DSP! It’s super pretty and super quick to put together, too! Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Friday! This weekend is my designated weekend to get my seeds ordered – and start to think about how the garden is going to be set up this year. I’d SAY it’s time to start getting it cleaned up for Spring but…a peek at the weather says that could be a very soggy – and CHILLY!- proposition! 🌧🌧🌧🌧🌧 A couple of days with the windows open and I’m convinced it’s SPRING! So – I’ll bow to the reality that it’s really still WINTER – and do indoor things! 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
My card today is sort of a Springy one – okay – it’s a LOT Springy! It’s got the Sweet Songbirds stamp set featured on a cool fun fold – this is a Surprise Gate Fold Panel Card – with one of my fave papers – the Dandy Designs DSP. Take a look-see:
Happy Happy Hawwwmp day, y’all! It’s mid-week and I hope things are going well so far. Are you ready for Valentine’s Day?? If you’re still making cards – be sure to check out my Sticky Sweet Valentine’s Day Ordering Special – it’ll help you replenish that adhesive stock! You can read the deets down below! 🙂
I’ve got a new goody to share with you today! It features just a part of the new Online Exclusives that are coming to our Online Store on 1 March! You might have had a chance to see my sneaky peek video the other night. It’s the Irresistible Blooms bundle and coordinating Hello Irresistible DSP. Take a look-see:
UPDATE on FRIDAY, 3 Feb 23: So….apparently, when I was adding the PDF tutorial last night – I somehow managed to delete 90% of the post instructions! 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ I have no idea how – and JUST realized it! Open the PDF (the link is actually right in the MIDDLE of the post 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️) and all the directions for making this card are right there – just without…all my extraordinarily witty commentary! 😉 Sorry, guys!! 🙁
Good morning and happy…Friday! I’m a little off my days this week – Miss Sonya cleaned yesterday (thank goodness!) instead of today so…I spent all day yesterday thinking it was FRIDAY! But it wasn’t. 🤷♀️
When we went to Maui, we did some snorkeling, which was wonderful! Wayne and Lance, though, ALSO went S.C.U.B.A. diving and saw some sea turtles – the pictures were pretty awesome (but..I wish I hadn’t been so claustrophobic in the mask/tank thingy and could have gone, too!). And I know I’ve been pretty reticent about my love of Maui…or..not. So – the Sea Turtle set, when it was released in the Jan-Apr 2023 Mini, caught my eye right away! I pulled it out today and found a couple of good sentiments in the Happy Labels stamp set to go with! Take a look-see:
Happy Happy Hawmp Day, y’all – and happy first day of February! Hope you’re ready for a good month!
I like fun folds. Actually – I LOVE fun folds! And one of my very favorite folds – which also happens to be one of the EASIEST – is the Book-Fold! I pulled that one out again today and added some so-pretty paper from the Regency Park 6″ x 6″ DSP. The focal point is from the slightly overlooked (just my thoughts!) Around the Bend Bundle.
