Love

 

I've been spending a few evenings stamping while we are still off from sports most nights.  It's been great to get back into stamping a little more and using up some supplies I have.

For this card, I used the Freshly Made Sketches #470 and turned it onto the side (although now I realize my hearts are the opposite of the sketch).  The hearts were stamped & cut out of some backgrounds I had created using Distress Oxide inks awhile ago and hadn't gotten around to putting them together with anything.  The background on each of the cards were done using repetitive stamping of a background stamp from the Love Notes set from Verve Stamps.  

Thanks for stopping by to visit!

Together

I'm not finding as much time to stamp as I used to so I need to kick my mojo into gear one of these days.

I made this card a few weeks ago but hadn't shared it yet.  It's one that I really like how it turned out and finally am using one of the punches I had to have...now to figure out who to give the card to.

Thanks for stopping by and visiting me and sorry I've been MIA.

You are Loved

On a crazy clean & simple roll here-creating a lot of different cards using favorite sketches and my 

6 x 6 paper stash.

The cards above use the Operation Write Home #220 and the cards below use Operation Write Home #185 sketch with a little liberty on the placement of the square.

I decided to break out some of the die cuts that are included with the paper pack on these cards and like how they turned out.  Sometimes they are easy to incorporate, but not always.

Introducing ABC Letter Die

Today the new ABC die from The {Stamps} of Life was released.  This is a fun die set that coordinates with letters2color, zebra2letter and outline4letters so a lot of different sets to work with it.

I've been using it in my Project Life album, it's perfect for scrapbooking.

My first card I created some of my own patterned paper and then die cut the letters out of it.

Card details:

Stamps: Daisies2Garden and Tinytitles2stamp from The {Stamps} of Life

Card Stock: Daffodil Delight, Basic Black, Confetti White

Inks: Color Box by Stephanie Barnard in Licorice and Banana

Embellishments: My Minds Eye Boy Crazy enamel dots, ABC dies from The {Stamps} of Life

Wanted to get creative with this card and combine it with some of the sentiments, so I emphasized the Happy Birthday with just using the die cut for the first letter of the sentiment.
