I'm Happy Stampin'

I just love making this easy card! The starburst really adds an element of fun. we made this card at my last stamp club meeting. This card also features a faux bow using strips of cardstock. I cut 3, 3/4" wide strips of card stock. The longest was the length of my card 5-1/2" x 3/4". The next two were approximately 4-1/2" long. middle piece was flagged at the ends. The next piece I just folded over the ends to meet in the middle. To get a good curve you can wrap the bends around a pencil. I attached that to the flagged piece and wrapped a 1/4" ish x 2" strip around to make the center of the bow. I did have to trim some to make it work. I attached it using a dimentional. I will add a tutorial on the starburst a little later so check back for updates. Supplies: stamp set: curly cute paper: Birthday Basics designer series paper; bermuda bay and whisper white cardstock ink: raspberry ripple accessories: itty bitty punch pack, basic rhinestones and di

Hello! It's been a while! The past few months have been a whirlwind for me. Unfortunately I have not gotten to stamp and share the way I had hoped to. I am still holding stamp clubs and making cards for friends and family but classes have had to go on the back burner. I am hoping this holiday season give me a jump start at the new year! So, I love all of my SU products and I love to play with new and fresh rubber. I like the single stamps that we sell periodically because it gives me just a taste and I only have to buy the one stamp I love. For the holidays I chose the stamp "Magical Season", the phrase fit my thoughts perfectly. For this card I also used the d esigner paper stacks. These are perfect for making my Christmas cards. I like to make my own and with the stacks I get 24 sheets of one design. The sheets are 4-1/2" x 6" so they are perfect for cutting down to a card front size or using on another project. The fun file folder look is done using the n

This is my first time blogging from my phone ever. I downloaded the app and am giving it a try as I sit in my sons Tae Kwon Do class.  Unfortunately I don't have any cards on my phone but I do have some amazing photos I recently took at the Getty museum. We went for the first time ever just a few days ago. It was so beautiful and we had such a good time. I had hesitated in going because I have two boys ages 6 and 9 and well I didn't want to end up buying a million dollar statue because they broke it... Needless to say we broke nothing saw the Van Gogh and had a wonderful time. There is plenty for the kids to see and room for them to expend their energy.  The kids made masks in the children's are and wore them all day :) The view were spectacular and we couldn't have had better weather. I can't wait to go back....without the kids ;) You could see all the way to the ocean. Beautiful! Thanks for reading all the way through my test post. Ill get some pictures of my card

I love this card! It was so much fun to create. It features the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set, a mix of splatters, lines and mess. I think however it all comes together quite nicely. I cut the center out of the bermuda bay piece using the window frames framelit. the magnetic platform makes it so easy to get it straight.
