Sweetest Tasty Truck
Card Ice Cream, Ice Cream we all scream for Ice Cream! I love this little truck from the Stampin Up Tasty Treats in the Sale-a-Bration catalog. I watercolored the truck with the Aqua Painters on Shimmery White card stock. This was a card I created for a swap, so I kept it simple. What is your favorite ...
Party Monster
Card The monsters from Yummy in My Tummy stamp set are in the new Stampin Up Occasion Catalog next to the "baby' and kid stamps. They are too cute for just kids. Kids can't have all the cute stamps all to themselves! Look at this guy! I watercolored him with Crumb Cake and Tangerine Tango. ...
Badges & Banners Birthday for a 10yo Boy
Card My son celebrated his 10th birthday at the end of August. This was the simple birthday card I came up with for him. He's past the dinosaurs and cars/trucks phase. I though just a simple, non-frilly card would be best. The Serene Scenery DSP stack met the challenge. I paired it with the Stampin Up Badges ...
Moroccan Birthday Blossoms
One of my favorite Designer Series Papers from the 2016-2017 Annual Catalog has to be the Moroccan DSP. I've paired it with the beautiful Birthday Blossoms stamp set. I took my color palette straight from the paper. If your every having trouble coming up with a card design, start by picking a DSP and a stamp set. ...
Birthday Llama
I needed a birthday card for an 8 year old boy....why not a Llama! I think this is so festive and the die cuts from the Fiesta Time Framelits make this card super quick to make. The multi-color blanket was colored with the markers, Crushed Curry in the middle, Melon Mambo on the strips, and Emerald Envy on the ...
Fiesta Llama
I think one of the reasons I love the current Stampin Up Annual Catalog is I'm an animal lover and this catalog is full of adorable animals, foxes, puppies, kittens, flamingos, raccoons and now LLAMA!! or it is ALPACA? I honestly don't know the difference. He's adorable no matter what. This rainbow effect was ...
Guy Greetings Happy Birthday
My husbands birthday was back in July, he's a car guy, we have more cars than we have drivers, one being a refurbished '48 F1 Ford. When I wanted to make him a card for his birthday, the Guy Greetings was the stamp set I grabbed without thinking about it. It has a car in it.....and tools...PERFECT! I watercolored ...

Masculine Birthday Pear
Follow my blog with Bloglovin I love the simplicity of this card. The pear is just the sweetest image. I think this could make a great masculine card. I have a difficult time creating a card for men...no bows or ribbon, or sparkles, by yet look finished. I think this card meets the test. What do you ...
CASEing myself – Celebrate with Cake
I decided to try to CASE myself, take a card I made awhile back that is made with product that is all retired and recreate with current product. I chose this card from my Washi Tape Background post from almost 3 years ago. How do you think I did? Just loved the original and I think my update is a ...
Farewell to Amazing Birthday, Dotty Angles and Cherry on Top DSP
More favorites that are leaving us. This was a card I cased to highlight the Amazing Birthday and Dotty Angles stamp sets. I used the colors found in the retiring Cherry on Top DSP stack.

It’s My Party Gift Bag
I stopped purchasing gift bags several years ago. I hated paying over $5 for a bag that was mass produced. They were never a cute as what I could come up with myself. My daughter got a fancy water bottle for a friends birthday party. I used a blank Wine Gift Bag and decorated with the soon to retire It's My Party ...
Go Wild Birthday Card
I see zebra strip and I think bright pink. I'm loving this card more and more every time I look at it. Most times when I design a card I need to make it, set it aside and walk away. When I come back in a few hours I can look at it more constructively and figure out what I need to change to make it work. ...

Washi Tape Background
How fun it this card? It screams summer. I was insprired by a card by Amy O'Neill. I just love the use of Washi Tape as a background element.

Tool box Re-do / New Catalog / New Promo
A couple of years ago, I was privileged to by part of a shoebox swap at my up-line, Tami White's, home where we made this really cute toolbox designed by Lynn Wilcox. I've seen it pop up a lot lately on Pinterest. I've had it in my craft room since. One of my Coffee & Crafts ladies, ...
Banner Gift Bags
Aren't these cute!!! Almost as cute as the recipients!! My cousin's twins turned 2 a couple of weeks ago, and these were their gift bags. The price of gift bags at paper stores is so expensive, then add the card, matching tissue paper, you can pay as much for packaging as you do for the gift. I now prefer to ...
Happy Birthday……..a little bit late!
Pin It Here's a card we made in a class a few month back. I has a request for some masculine cards. I got the inspriation from Pinterest. Do you love Pinterest? I'm totally addicted, but my boards are so full and I can't find the card now, it wasn't a Stampin' Up! card, but they used the ...

Dressing up the Bag
Pin It We attend lots of kids birthday parties. Some times it seems like we will have at least one a week. For the last one, I found this cute polkadot bag and it screamed MELON MAMBO.
