H A P P Y N A T I O N A L C A T L A D Y D A Y !!!!

Apparently it’s April 19 and it’s a thing since 20217! Lol!

You know I had to create a card for it!

I was inspired for this card stock cuteness from Atlantic Heart Sketches and their sketch –

I used the most adorable bundle, called Cutest Crew, for my card along with a pattern paper from Turtle-y Cute Designer Series Paper. These polka dots are soo fun and playful – just cats, most of the time.

TIP : To line up the 1″ squares, I cut a piece of Pool Party card stock the same size as the squares lined up with spacing between them. I started with glueing the corners first, then filled in the rest. I mounted that onto another piece of Pool Party 1/4″ larger!

Such a fun, fresh, and funny card! Great for the animal lovers in your circle. The bundle includes dogs and birds too!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

It sure sparked my creativity –

This wonderful pattern paper is the Splash of Sparkles Designer Series Paper. It has gold foil running through the patterns. It is so fun and playful!

I added stamped party hats from the Seasonal Celebrations stamp set to the two punched circles. It is pretty cool how you can stamp on Designer Series Paper!

The cool birthday word is from the Reason To Celebrate stamp set. This fonts is just wonderful in this set!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new color challenge to spark your creativity –

Some of my favorite colors! So I decided to do a little coloring!

I started with the Modern Christmas Designer Series Paper and got out my Stampin’ Blends. I used both fine and brush tip.

I added a simple strip of Pool Party adding the circled sentiment.

The greenery brings all the colors together.

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

I was feeling a bit festive with my creation this week –

I used some leftover pattern paper strips from the Traditions of Christmas Designer Paper to create this pretty card!

For the focal point, I die cut the top part of a bunch of flowers that were at the bottom of this piece of Designer Series Paper. Don’t let these images go to waste, ever! Always find a way to use them.

I placed the flower bunch on a 2 3/8″ punched circle. The sentiment was molded to the circle as its photopolymer and easy to do.

Just a pretty sweet card!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

I had two goals with this card : I needed some beautiful cards for some great friends, and to show off pattern paper / Designer Series Paper (that’s on sale)!

I think I nailed both!

This Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper is my favorite from the annual catalog so I had to show it off! This bold print, plus the pop of orange – just lovely!

I hunted all through the thanks and thank you stamps until I came across the perfect one! I love this one because it adds ‘friend’. It makes it a bit more personal! I found it in the Labeled with Love stamp set.
