Punchie Violets

These punched African Violets were on our last Punchie Class. They are so cute and really look real. I was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest and can't remember the original owner. But to whoever, Thank you for sharing such a great creation.


Thanks for looking and leave some 'love' (comment). Have a blessed day and remember to pray for the residents in Texas affected by Harvey.

Until next time!

Quilting...

Not just for the sew'ers' anymore! If you have had a chance to see the videos, you will love this quilt suite! It has stamps, framelits, embossing folder and paper. I don't have the paper or folder yet but I will have to get them now.  Still want to stamp my envelope to complete this great card.


I want to be honest, it takes practice to get the quilt squares stamped correctly. (took me 5 times) I finally picked up my Misti and it helped alot! Hope you like the card and I appreciate any and all comments.

Until next time!

Christmas Box

This is the new Pizza Box's (3.5 x 3.5) from SU in the new Mini- Occasions Catalog. Love the felt quilt embellishments. Yes, you guessed it - from the new catalog. (8 pkg.)


Such a cute little box and very heavy paper. One side is mat and one side is glossy so you can easily stamp on it as well.

Until next time!

Cheery Chirps

I CASE'd this card from the new Mini Occasions catalog. The set is called Cherry Chirps and has 3 birds (144938). Cute and whimsical!


This page was for Jake's first day of 2nd Grade. He's growing too fast.


Enjoy and have a great day. The weather is perfect! Prayers for Texas!

Until next time have a Blessed day!

Card for InColor Club

This is the card I made for my InColor Club to show of the new Tranquil Tide Classic Ink and matching paper. The sentiment is from High Tide and I love the lampost.

There is a bundle with Brightly Lit Christmas and the Christmas Lampost Thinlets. I think you can use the lampost for many occasions and cards. It is so detailed and in the Thinlets there are two different types of globes.


I lined the envelope with the same Designer Paper. Enjoy... Comments are always welcome.

Until next time have a Blessed Day!

Snowflake Sentiments

Well another 'love' that bundle- Snowflake Sentiments and Swirly Snowflakes Thinlets! So many possibilities. You can use the Thinlets for any winter card and some of the stamps not just for Christmas.


I stamped three snowflakes on the envelope and the inside contains a verse from the stamp set and a die cut from the dies. You will be able to get this from the MINI- Occasions catalog coming September 1.

Until next time!

Tags for you

The new Seasonal Tags Framelits and Seasonal Chums Stamp Set. They fold over and an image on the backside too. There are lots of small sentiments to put inside. You’re gonna love ‘em. I think I am going to do a TAG class before Christmas - Any ideas?


As a single cut, you can use as a tag topper too!

Until next time and have a blessed day!

Night in Bethlehem

This is a beautiful set coming September 1. It has a greeting for the outside of your card, if you chose to use it and one for the inside of your card. (145282) I used the Bethlehem Edgelits Dies (144676) to cut the village and star. I stamped the front of the envelope as well.

The village is cut from silver paper and placed on Dimensionals. Love this card and the Bundle. Please add to your Wish List and you will be able to order after September1.

Until next time have a Blessed Day!

Miss Josie

Miss Josie Grace is growing up. She's now in Pre-K. My how time flies; seems like only yesterday she was just a baby!


The title is by Treasure Box Designs (my favorite place for piecings). BTW she wants to be Poppy when she grows up! I'm hoping this will change as she gets older! LOL

Until next time have a blessed day!

Shaker Card

This card was inspired by my Stampin friend, MCE. I did some changes and it turned out ok. Shakers are not my favorite. I used an acrylic package that one of the Stampin Up embellishments came in and the Card Front Framelits. The trees have some Merry Christmas confetti and the deer some tiny stars.


BTW I have Night of Navy on the top portion; Garden Green behind the trees and Soft Suede behind the deer!

Hope you like it and don't forget to leave a comment. Love to see your opinions! Have a blessed day and be sure to use protective glasses if you view the eclipse today.

Until next time!

Cousins

Jake and Josie enjoying a play date recently. They painted rocks, played in the sand and made stained glass ornaments. They both enjoyed the day.


I used Stampin Up papers and the title is by Treasure Box Designs.

Until next time have a Blessed Sunday!!

Stamp A Stack

Today is our monthly Stamp A Stack Class. We do four cards of three designs. Here is one we will do today. One is from Nature Sings and my hubby informed me it was a caribou (not an elk). After stamping I used the new Ruffle Embossing folder and added linen thread for accent.


Another hot and humid day today and hopefully cool down will come soon. Stay COOL and stamp!

Until next time have a Blessed Day!

Santa's Suit

Love this new Santa's Suit Bundle. You get all his little clothes in a stamp set and then the Santa Builder Framelit Dies to match. It is so cute. The back mate is from last year's Christmas Paper Stack but still good. This is a Sneak Peek from the new Occasions Mini coming soon.


Enjoy your day and stay cool. It is up in the 90's already and very humid.

Until next time have a Blessed Day!

Quirky Critters

Quirky Critters (pg. 46 144761 - $17.)
Too cute for words. Just a quirky collection of sayings and critters.


I liked the colors because they are so 'cool' looking. I fussy cut the sword fish and he is on dimensionals with another copy of him underneath! I used sequins to accent.

Would love to see your comments and opinions. They mean a lot to me!

Until next time have a blessed day!

Can't wait for you all to be able to see the new Occasions MINI catalog. It is chocked full of new Framelits and matching stamp sets.

Have a blessed day until next time!

Christmas Album

From the YouTube videos by Helen Griffin I made this 12 x 12 Christmas pop out album. It was a bit of a challenge but turned out OK. Great for a collection of pictures especially for a 'special' occasion

Graduation, Birthday, Beach Trip, School Dayz... etc.


Inside has all these pockets for pictures and memorabilia and a belly band to hold even more.  Too cute. Thanks, Helen for sharing.

Until next time!
