Springtime Thank You

The little bunnies and chicks are too cute!  This is a stamp set from Your Next Stamp, A Cute Stack.  I stamped and embossed the image directly on the white cardstock.  I should have stamped the image closer to the left side. After coloring the image, I barely had enough room for the sentiment.  Actually, what I should have done was just trim the cardstock a little more.  Nonetheless, the card is cute and will be a perfect thank you card this Spring season.  Have a great day and find yourself a little Stampin' time!

Serene Garden

Yesterday, Paula and Jenny came for a visit.  Paula made today's pretty card and brought the stamp set and framelits for us to use.  The Serene Garden stamp set and the coordinating dies, Garden Scene, are in Stampin' Up's Annual Catalog.  I totally looked passed this stamp set in the catalog and after seeing the card Paula sent me, I took a second look at it.  I also went on Pinterest to see what cards were created using Serene Garden.  There are so many pretty samples on the internet that you will be seeing more creations with this stamp set.  (I stamped a few of each image while Paula was here that I can use in the future!) Actually, Paula will let me use her stamp set whenever I ask.    Her cards were a reminder of the pretty stamp sets that are in Stampin' Up's Annual and Occasions catalogs.  Have a great day!

Hoppy Friends

I am ending the week with a cute Easter card.  I used the images from the My Favorite Things stamp set, Hoppy Friends.  The images were cut on my Scan N Cut and colored with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.  The Easter eggs were cut from miscellaneous scraps of cardstock and paper.  I then used a white gel paint to make stripes and dots on a couple of the eggs.    Both layers of Bashful Blue pattern paper were cut with the Avery Elle Wonky Stitches dies.  I even cut the grass with one of the Wonky Stitches dies so it matched the rest of the edges.  The sentiment is from Stampin' Up's retired Teeny Tiny Wishes and cut out with one of their retired Itty Bitty Framelits.  Have a great weekend and find yourself a little stampin' time!

Pretty Poppies

Today's card was copied directly from My Favorite Things' website.  I wanted to use their Painted Poppies stamp set but my mind went blank.  So I went to their website and found their pretty version of a card using Painted Poppies.  I cut the images using my Scan N Cut and colored the images with Spectrum Noir markers.  The sentiment is from the Pretty Pink Posh set Thoughtful Greetings.  Copying a card is so easy!  Have a great day!
