Quick share today. I’m in the midst of purging for my Open House.

I made this cute little 2, 4, 6, 8 bag using some new DSP and the Banner Punch –

This Banner Punch is a must have on the new accessories list. It cuts 3 sizes. But, get to know how to use it and you can cut whatever width you’d like!

The back of my bag was simple –

I had just folded over the banner and ran my ribbon through it.

Done. That easy.

Now, go create something!

We’ll be Old Friends Until………

……..we’re old and senile…..

I love this whimsical, say it like it is newer photopolymer stamp set, Just Kidding. The sentiments a fabulous!

I’ve been itching to play around with it – and, lots of other stuff – I just wasn’t sure how to go about it. Yes, challenges to the rescue! This time from TGIF Challenges. This is what they have going –

Nice, great sketch. So, this is my take using that really cool stamp set –

libbystamps, Stampin' Up, Just Kidding Stamp Set, Stacked With Love DSP, 2 1/2 Circle Punch, Modern Label Punch, Deco Labels Collection Framelits,

Inside greeting is “……them we’ll be new friends.” Funny, right? And, I’m guessing quite true. Sigh……

Simple to create. I used markers to color in the hair, shirt and her skin. Guess the grey hair makes her look old already! Added a few element per the sketch and done! Call it a card.

This is just great! I look forward to creating more quick and humorous cards with this sketch!

What a bright, cheery card on a fall day!

My share today is another card from my Buffet this past weekend. Also, a popular choice. Isn’t it just so pretty? Admittedly, it was one of my favorites too.

However, not my original design. Sorry to disappoint. As I was surfing for inspiration, I came across this card here. I loved it! And, I kept going back to it. So, I just decided to CAS it. Good choice.

It is very simple on the eye, but required a few more steps and layers of card stock that I first thought. But, I still loved it. Last week the Deco Labels Frames were on sale, great card to ‘sell’ those I thought! Great card to showcase lots of product that many of us already have!

Now, you can go out and give this a CAS for yourself!

Happy Stampin’
