SPRING CARDS

Here in New England we all look forward to spring arriving!  Here are a couple of cards I made to welcome spring. 😊

The Welcome Spring card is super cute and an easy make using Garden Birdhouses die (FRA-DIE-09415). For the tree branch I used the Birthday Owls die set (FRA-DIE-11020) and the greeting is from a clear stamp set called Spring is Blooming (FRA-DIE-09415) All these products are from Frantic Stamper, Inc.

This card was made using the Spring is Blooming clear stamp set (FRA-CL-043) The set has several flowers and greetings so has lots of potential for many different cards. I also used a vase from a die that is simply called Vases (FRA-DIE-10984). The greeting is the Reverse-Cut Spring Words die (FRA-DIE-10609). I used an embossing folder from Stampin Up called Square Lattice for the background. All other products are from Frantic Stamper, Inc.

HAPPY SPRING EVERYONE!

EASTER CARDS 2023

I wanted to share these two cute Easter cards that I made this year. I made a few of each to send to family and friends.

These little bunny images are both by Whipper Snapper. I colored them with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend markers. The lined background DP is by MFT and the plaid DP is from an Impression Obsession paper pad called Spring Plaids.  The Easter die used is called Block Easter by Frantic Stamper.

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter! May your baskets be filled with lots of jelly beans... 😊

Until next time...

HELLO MY FRIEND

Hi everyone...

I'm sharing a new card I made for a swap I joined. The theme was to make a card with polka dots AND stripes on it.

This is a great card to use for lots of different occasions. I liked it so much I made another one and just changed the greeting for a birthday card. 

MFT - Upsy Daisy Dies 

Gina K Designs - Greeting

SU - Pretty in Pink and Lovely Lilac card stock

MFT - DP

Until Next Time....

ST. PATTY'S DAY 2023

I'm here to share a St. Patrick's Day card I made today. I know most people don't send cards for this occasion but I always like to make a couple each year.

I really like this image, ribbon and bow and the embossing folder. I've had them for a really long time and have no idea who the manufacturers of them are. The small shamrock I put in the center of the bow is by Impression Obsession.

May your blessings outnumber

the shamrocks that grow,

And may trouble avoid you

wherever you go.

Happy St. Patty's Day everyone!

Until next time...

Happy Autumn everyone!  I have a card to share with you today made using products from the newest Frantic Stamper release.

The sunflower was made using the new Layered Sunflower die (FRA-DIE-11034) which also comes with this cute little ladybug.  The wheat sprigs were made using Harvest Wheat (FRA-DIE-11030) and the pretty sentiment is simply called Thankful (FRA-DIE-09605).

I hope everyone is enjoying Autumn!

ICE CREAM

I know I've been MIA on blogging these past couple of months but I have been making cards. Just really bad about posting them. Here is a recent card I made using the mini release from Frantic Stamper.

I love this little saying and ice cream too!

The die and stamp I used were both from Frantic Stamper. 

FRA-DIE-10677 (Push Up & Rocket Pop Die)

FRA-CL-137 (Ice Cream clear stamp set)

I used some glaze on the rocket pop to make it look wet. The little stars and circles sprinkled on the card are also included in the die set.

EASTER TREAT HOLDERS

Hi everyone! I'm back again to show you the little treat containers I made for my granddaughters for Easter this year. It's the perfect size for a few little treats and a gift card or cash added in (which now that they're older, they love to receive).

The supplies used to make these are all from the new release from Frantic Stamper. I put small holes in the top using a punch and just ran some gingham ribbon through to make little handles on the pink treat box.

HAPPY EASTER !

EASTER

Hi everyone! I've been really busy lately and haven't posted as much as I should be. I am going to catch up with posting some of the cards I've recently made, but first want to show you the Easter card I made for my granddaughter.

The stamps and dies are all from the most recent Frantic Stamper release.

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter! 😊

STAY STRONG

Many companies in the craft world are doing fund raisers to help the people of Ukraine. Frantic Stamper has asked the people on the design team to create a card which will be displayed on their website so I would like to share mine with you. Let's keep the innocent people of a peaceful country in our thoughts and prayers.
