  • Maritime Thank You Card For the Guys

    Ok, so this card doesn’t have to be just for the guys, but I was inspired by a version of this card from my Stamping Twin Julie Davison and had to recreate it for my Stamping Bingo the other week as a card they could make for guys or girls.  My biggest problem is that…

  • Dear Heart for those Great Boy Cards

    Dear Heart for those Great Boy Cards

    I don’t know if you remember the Sweetie Pie photopolymer stamp set that came out a few months ago.  It was filled with these cute sketch art girl faces and a couple frames and accessory stamp images.  Turns out it was popular and sold out pretty fast.  Well, today, Stampin’ Up put out another stamp…

    Father’s Day Card using Look Up to Father

    Look up to Father is one of those stamps that when I saw it in the Occasions Catalog, I knew I just HAD-TO-HAVE it!  I loved the sentiment (“A Father is someone to look up to no matter how tall you’ve grown”) and knew I wanted to make a card for my Dad with it. …

  • A Masculine Card with Six Sided Sampler

    A Masculine Card with Six Sided Sampler

    Quick, name a stamp set that you just had to have but have since used once – or not at all!  For me, that has been the Six Sided Sampler stamp set.  I saw lots of cool things done with this set and I loved the hexagon punch that coordinated, so I picked it up…

  • Masculine Monday with Burlap, Woodgrain, and Word Bubbles!

    Masculine Monday with Burlap, Woodgrain, and Word Bubbles!

    I know many of us struggle with masculine cards.  I often find it so easy to reach for my flowers and rhinestones and pinks and whatnot; but when I need to make a card for a guy, those go-to items suddenly don’t seem to be quite the right fit.  Well, as luck would have it,…

  • Dress Shirt Card for Dad

    You would think that for all the stamping classes I run and projects I make for swapping and my blog, I would always be prepared for holidays.  Ha!  They sneak up on me like my 3 yr old when I think he is taking a nap and jump out at me at the last minute. …

  • Just Wanted to Say You’re Amazing!

    No seriously, you are! As I think back to how my life has evolved and changed over the last few years – between major moves and babies and family adventures; I love that I’ve always had my friends and stamping community there for support and to keep me sane!  From friends in facebook groups to…
