Sweet Celebration

Mmm! Doesn't this look "sweet"?

Simple and fun birthday cards can be created using Stampin' Up! Sweet Scoops. I added a scoop of strawberry ice cream on top the cone with a pop dot to make it look a little more realistic. I love that you can create just about any flavor of ice cream with this set. It's so much fun and it's a big hit with the kids!

Sweep Scoops is available in the current Stampin' Up! Summer Mini Catalog. To get your FREE copy, e-mail me HERE.

Enjoy your day & happy stamping!

Happy Anniversary

I am approaching my 12 year wedding anniversary. Boy, that is a long time! Last November I celebrated my 10 year anniversary at my place of employment. Sounds like I'm getting old, doesn't it? Let's not go there.

I made this anniversary card for my husband. The background stamp is Stampin' Up! Tres Chic and the flowers are from Watercolor Trio.

I did some sponging on this card to give it a soft, delicate effect. All you do is take a sponge and dab it on your ink pad to collect some ink, then sponge the ink on your cardstock. To achieve darker color in some areas, just sponge over the same area several times.

Here is a peek at the inside of the card. The sentiment is from the Stampin' Up! All Holidays set.

Have a great day and happy stamping!

Graduation Party Time

It's that time of year again . . . graduation party time! I had three cards I needed to make all for one weekend. I kept it simple so I could stamp the bunch of them in no time.

The Happy Grad stamp from Stampin' Up! did all the work for me on this one. Stampin' Up! about a year ago or so, started selling single stamps. Great idea! I certainly wouldn't need a complete set of graduation stamps.

You'll be seeing some new single stamps in the upcoming Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog due out July 1st. Need a copy? E-mail me HERE to reserve a copy at a special discounted price.

Enjoy your day and happy stamping!

Scrapbooking With Stamps

I had another layout I meant to post in May for National Scrapbooking Month, but the month slipped away from me!

I often hear that people struggle incorporating their stamps into scrapbook pages. Take a look at all the stamps you have with phrases on them. The phrase pictured at the top of my scrapbook page, "live with passion"(from the Stampin' Up! set Inspired by Nature), was a perfect fit because Brandon was very passionate about picking just the right blueberries.

I also stamped and cut out a little blue butterfly (from Stampin' Up! set Great Friend) in the corner of the layout to add a subtle embellishment. The possibilities are endless! Rubber stamps can definitely enhance your scrapbook pages.

By the way, blueberry picking is a very fun activity for you to do with your child. The bushes are not very tall and the kids love carrying a bucket on a rope around their neck. It's a great time and nothing tastes better than fresh blueberries!

Enjoy your day & happy stamping!
