Congratulations Baby

So...I made this sample months ago!

Do you have any idea how hard it is to keep a secret when I know a fantastic set like this is coming?

I knew that everyone would love it!

This is baby2stamp.

I stamped the inside with one of the sentiments in the set.

This is an adorable set that I know I will use again and again and I bet you will too!

Thanks for stopping by!

New Job

Using the Wordsr4toasting set again for this card for my daughter in law!

So excited that she got a new job!

She and my son moved to CA after college and lived with us for 4 months.  

They just recently moved out and got a place close to my sons work.

Now his wife got a job at UCLA which is only a few miles from where they live!

Perfect stamp set!

I just love how versatile this set is.

So useful for so many toasting occasions!

Hope you enjoyed today's inspiration.

Congrats

I needed a quick Congratulations card for one of the employees at work who got a promotion.

I used the Sizzix Card Flower and Circle drop ins die.

What I love about this one is the ability to swap out the circle sentiment for any of the other circle sentiment dies you may have.

I had a lot of fun decorating the card with different flower colors and flower embellishments.

This was a quick and easy card to make and my work buddy loved it!

I hope you enjoyed my card today!

Congrats! Grad

Stephanie created some great new letter dies that are now available from 

the Stamps of Life.

They are 3 1/2" letters and they come with the shadow die.

I created this fun graduation card with them.

Here is a closer look  at the letters.

The graduation cap and the numbers are from the graduation2stamp set.

There are more samples in the gallery so be sure and check it out!

Ten Little Fingers

Happy Friday!

I am sharing a big baby card that I made for one of the ladies at work.

The card is 5" x 7" so it had plenty of room for everyone at work to sign.

The image is Swaddled Baby Girl.

The sentiment is Ten Little Phrase.

I paper pieced the blanket with patterned card stock.

The rattle, bear, and bottle are buttons.

I used Spellbinder dies.

The image was colored with Prisma colored pencil and blended with gamsol and blending stumps.

The patterned paper is from a 12x12 pack of Debbie Mumm paper.

I hope you enjoyed today's inspiration and that you get some time to stamp this weekend!

Thanks for stopping by!

Congratulations!!

I am sharing another new image from Stampendous today.

This is an all in one stamp that has the sentiment and surrounding stars and swirls all in one!

It's called Congratulations Stars.

I colored the image with my Tombow USA Recycled Pencils.

I mimiced the spots and stars in the design with some different brads from my stash!

The ribbon is from May Arts.

You can check out more samples and learn more about thee stamps on the Stampendous Blog!

You Did It!

I LOVE the Graduation2celebrate stamp set that was released last year.

It gets a work out this time of year!

And....now there is a matching die set that was released yesterday!

I have two cards to share today that used these stamps and dies.

This one also uses the Lively Stand up card die for the card base.

It's a little hard to tell in the picture but the hat, the numbers, and the diploma are die cut and popped up with 3D foam squares.

My second card is simple but looks fabulous!

I used the Sizzix Circles, Scallop Framelets.

As always...lots of great samples in the gallery so make sure you stop by for some great inspiration!

Thanks for stopping by!
