Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack
Modern Medley Congratulations
Ah, the elegant combination of black and cream. This was another choice on my November Card Buffet this past weekend. I love the elegant simplicity of it. It was a popular card too. I started by embossing only the top inner portion of the Very Vanilla card stock. The paper was perpendicular to the folder…. [Read More]
Leafing for Christmas
That’s right, ‘leafing’ for Christmas! But, why? Of course, I just have to play along with Stamping Peaches Paper Challenge this week. The theme, LEAVES! I decided not to go with what would be the traditional thought around this time of year and this theme of leaves, Thanksgiving. This stamp set I used was, believe… [Read More]
Flippin to say, ‘Hi’

A Day All About You
Happy Day! Oh, happy day! I made a fun card to share with you today! It’s a shaker card, I believe. I saw this technique/idea at Convention. I say ‘technique’ because it uses Washi Tape to border the edges and keep everything in its place. I’ve made these types of cards before, just not using… [Read More]
Gee, Thanks
What a cute sentiment, right? Gee, thanks. Love it. It’s new from the set, Really Good Greetings. And, they are, really great greetings! This is a must have new set I think. I’ve used it a few times. I made this card to add to my stash of grab’n go cards and for two challenges. One… [Read More]

Ears to you, that’s right. This was one of the Easter card choices at my March Card Buffet. Cute, huh? Not one of your traditional color styles for Easter, but it sure works!

Welcome home. That’s right. I made this card for my nephew, Eddy and his wife. They just joined the home buying world! I wanted to do something a little ‘different’, card style – and I think this card unique. Take a look at how cute it is. I got the ‘door’ at a scrapbook fair… [Read More]

Remember how fun pinwheels were as a child? This card today reminds me of just that, pinwheels on a sunny day! Happy Stampin’ Libby
Freshly Made Fridays, #26
Ah, getting into some more card designing. I have my Card Buffet next weekend, so I am still creating cards. Will this one make the buffet? I wanted to incorporate either Sale-A-Bration products or the Occasions Mini Catalog. The Occasions Mini won out. I went with the Twitterpated DSP, Mixed Bunch, and Blossom Punch. My design… [Read More]
