Stampin’ Up! Reverse Word Sneak Peek!

Posted on February 12, 2017 by stampsnlingers

Well – happy Sunday! On the way home – with my new manicure….mostly…intact! Yes, I even went and got a manicure yesterday before the wedding. I kinda hate going – I’m always pretty sure that as the technicians chatter in their own language, laughing and giggling, that they’re discussing the horrendous state of my nails!! Also – a manicure will typically last me…a day.

Maybe. If I sit around with my fingers splayed and hovering in the air. Which isn’t very likely given…well….life! 🙂

Bottom line…I don’t do it much!

On the other hand – ha!! – I really want to start doing videos and posting them for y’all. So manicures may be something I need to do more of. The trick will be finding a good nail color that coordinates with all the ink that’s probably also going to be gracing my fingers! 🙂

We’ll see how that works out!

The wedding was gorgeous – took place right on the water. It was wonderful to see my friend so happy with his new bride – who is lovely inside and out. And it was great to see my friends from work – who’d driven from Alabama or flown from California for the event. I’m very glad I went! 🙂

And in case that’s not pretty enough – sunset over the water was spectacular! 🙂

For those looking for their Finn-Fan-Fix….take a look at my card and then scroll down to the end of the post! 🙂

My card for today is a quick-and-easy congratulations card that I made with the upcoming Sale-A-Bration stamp set called Reverse Words….

I also added a sentiment from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set and a bit of Affectionately Yours Specialty DSP. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Branches and Greatest Greetings!

Posted on August 15, 2016 by stampsnlingers

Good Monday morn to y’all. Here we are again, embarking on another work week.

Sunday went a little sideways on me – got this card done, and then a family semi-emergency offered the perfect excuse to not do any closet cleaning out. And that little event kept me busy the rest of the day.

But, before that happened, I took the opportunity to sit down and make a card to share, using the available-now-thru-the-end-of-the-month-and-only-while-supplies-last Thoughtful Branches stamp set. You know those little dashes between the words mean you have to read them real fast without taking a breath, right? Did you do that? If you didn’t, you should go back and try it again. I’ll wait.

Better now? It makes so much more sense when you read it that way, doesn’t it?? 😉

Anywho – Thoughtful Branches stamp set and Beautiful Branches Thinlits (didn’t use the Thinlits on this card, just the stamp set!) – if you love this bundle (and who doesn’t!?), best get it right quick-like. It just won’t be around forever!

I added some Petals & Paisley DSP, the Woodland TIEF and a quick sentiment from Greatest Greetings. Take a look-see:
