Ice Cream Parlor Quick Accents Card and Card Purse
In a flurry of excitement, Sale-a-Bration has officially begun! Of course you can earn free stamps, but I love that you get options for other items like the Ice Cream Parlor Designer Paper and Quick Accents. I had gotten this paper pack during the preorder and the more I use it, the more I’ve now…
Take a Spin with Spinner Cards
Have you seen one of the more unique stamp sets that has come out in a while – the Take a Spin set? It’s a set of images that look like gameboard spinners, only with more “card-like” sentiments. I have to admit, when I got a chance to look at it, I wasn’t sure how…
Would You Guess This Was a Birthday Card?
Usually having stamps come in a set is a good thing because you know you have a variety of images and words that will coordinate and can give you a number of design options or even project options to work with. However, in this case, I learned that it can also influence you, the stamper,…
A Masculine Birthday
Here is a quick share for the day; it is my attempt at a masculine birthday card. My brother-in-law had his 30th birthday and I needed to get some card off to him. I didn’t want to use a tree set and many of my stamp sets used cutesy animals or had lots of flowers,…

The get well card that wasn’t
Last weekend my grandma had surgery on her foot and has been a lot less mobile and in a lot more pain than she expected. I wanted to start sending her cards to try to cheer her up while she recovered and had a great idea for a card using the new Sock Monkey stamp…
