Wish Big (Blog Candy)

Here's a Kwik & Kool card I made over the weekend.  In yesterday's post, I mentioned my paper hoarding problem.  Well, this card was created with the same thought in mind - use, don't hoard! 

One can never have too many birthday cards on hand.  So, I decided to make this simple card by using the Hand Drawn designer series paper (DSP).  The notepad look of this DSP is just too fun! 

How did I make this Kwik & Kool card? 

• I simply layered a piece of 4" x 5 1/4" DSP on top of a Riding Hood Red cardstock
• Bent the bottom right corner of the DSP to show off the pretty side hiding underneath
• Pierced holes in the bottom right corner for added interest
• Threaded a button with a sliver of cardstock
• Stamped the "wish big" sentiment using my Stamp-a-Ma-Jig

How Tweet it is ...

Yesterday, I said I'd be back with another baby card.  Well here it is ... isn't this pink bird adorable?  She's singing sweet songs of love.

I had a hard time deciding if I should go full out pink for the arrival of my new niece OR a more subtle route (see yesterday's card).  So, I ended up making two cards for one occasion. 

This one uses Sahara Sand as a base and Sweet Always designer series paper.  I used three stamp sets on this card - the new Cheep Talk (love it!), Short & Sweet, and Darling Dots (new hostess level 1 set).

Tart-a-Licious

Check out this sneak peek! 

Raspberry Tart Designer Series Paper (DSP) and "Sweet Stems" make for another pretty thank you card.

Over the weekend, I participated in the splitcoaststampers inspiration challenge (IC160).  MacKenzie - Childs was chosen for the challenge and I chose this chair as my inspiration for my Kreation.

When I saw this fabric, I instantly thought of the colors in the Raspberry Tart DSP.  Yum, yum... delicious!

The more I look at this chair, the more I wish I could afford it.  It looks so fun to sit in, don't you think?

Sweet Times Two

Sorry for the delay in posting... but Christmas is a very busy time for my family. 

I'm happy to say that I did get a small window of time to stamp yesterday.  So, I have something to share with all of you today.  Yeah!!

I received so many wonderful gifts from family, friends & co-workers.  And because of that some thank you cards are at the top of my "new creations" list. 

These two (simple) cards were stamped with the soon to be released (Jan 19) set "Sweet Stems".  I used two of the In Colors - Pacific Point & Tangerine Tango to create a bold and happy statement.  NOTE:  See photos of these cards individually in My Kreations Gallery.

The thank you sentiment is from the "Short & Sweet" stamp set (item 109369).  I love this set - it consists of 12 stamps for only $15.95 (see the end of this post for all images from this set).

Stay tuned:  More sneak peeks from the Spring/Summer Idea Book & Catalog will be posted on my blog this week.
