Sweet Flowers

 

Such a lovely layout by Anke Heim. I knew I had to create an anniversary card for my niece and nephew-in-law with it. Thanks Anke!

I chose the colors Boho Blue and Cherry Cobblerto go along with the 'All About Autumn' DSP wood paper that you see here. I added a Wink of Stella to the flowers to make them shine.

Taco Party

 

Here is my take on "The Creative TeaCup's" design of the 'Taco Fiesta' stamp set. Such an adorable card! Thanks for sharing yours! 

There is no coordinating dies for this set, so I fussy cut all the stamped images.

Sympathy Dogs

 

Such a sad card to make for my brother and his family. Their dog, Coco, had to be put down as she had cancer in her lungs. She was such a sweet dog, and I watched her on occasion when the family went on vacation or when Coco had a minor surgery. She will be missed by all.

I designed this within My Memories Suite digital software. I found the sentiment online... such lovely words for the little lady. 

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Mother's Day 2025

 

The 'Year of Flowers' stamp set with it's coordinating dies are perfect for Mother's Day! Here I made one for my GodMother, who is a GodMother to me and my twin sister. I also made a card for my best friend's Mom, as she is like a second Mom to me! 

I used only the flowers for my best friend and her sister on that card. And since my GodMother didn't have any children of her own... I placed two of the same flowers for my sister and I.

I added a Wink of Stella to the flowers to make them shine.

Thanks for looking!

Alpine Air Kit

 

In trying to create great masculine cards for the men in my family, I've found the perfect kit for many of them from Stampin' Up! And YES... I love to brag about it!  The new 'Alpine Air Kit' makes card-making so easy! It comes with envelopes, card bases, epherma packs and stamps and ink spot! All you need to make some cards.

Now, I did add Shaded Spruce cardstock to my card (to mat the pieces).

I've added Wink of Stella to the 'ocean', 'sea' or 'lake' area in the picture to make it shine.

Simple Beauty

 

I saw a similar layout on Pinterest and wanted to give it a try. The die-cut piece is only cut on the right-hand side of the image with a Designer Series Paper under the cut image. Such an elegant way to dress up the background on a stamped image. I added a Wink of Stella to the roses to make them shine... I left the other flowers bare.

Bundt Tags

My niece (who is in kindergarten) was principal of the day for her school. Her mom and her purchased bundt cakes from Nothing Bundt Cake to give to all the teachers. She asked me to create a sticker label to place on top of the containers.

I realize after she showed me to picture, that I made the sticker label a bit too big for the container top, but it worked out well anyway.

Designed in My Memories Suite digital software and die-cut out with circles dies.

Thanks for taking a closer look.

 

2025 Graduate

 

My nephew just graduated from high school! We are so proud of him as he struggled this last year. We hope that whereever he decides to go... it puts him on a path to a great career.

I designed this within My Memories Suite digital software. The sentiment is one piece... yet I recolored the "graduate" a blue color to match the tassel.

Thanks for looking!
