super simple thank you card

Sometimes I just stamp and color images in front the the tv. I stock pile them and then just make a bunch of super simple thank you cards out of them.

Birthday Card

I preordered the Lawn Fawn Simply Celebrate Winter stamp and die set. They arrived so I used the presents stamp to create a birthday card instead of a holiday card. I colored with copic and spectrum Noir markers. The Happy Birthday stamp is a really old Hero Arts stamp. The pattern paper and ribbon are old items in my stash.

Anything Goes Linkup party #3

Christmas in August?

I actually work on batch stamping Christmas cards all year so when its time to mail them I have more than enough homemade cards to mail to friends and family for the holidays. Using a Misti stamping platform makes it so easy to create multiples and double stamp to get images darker. For the card I used Lawn Fawn Here we go a-waddling and snow cool with their coordinating dies. I also used Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangles dies as well as My creative time fun stitches edges dies. Everything was colored using comic markers. The snow was embossed using snowflake tinsel embossing powder to give it a little shimmer. I added stickles to the hats and wink of Stella to the lantern light.

color challenge

Long time no blog post. I was inspired by Creations with Christina to complete a color challenge for her Make-Motivate-connect Linkup Party. I used a sizzix banner die set I got on clearance at Hobby Lobby to create this card. All the papers are mostly scraps from leftover projects.

more snow day cards

I used patterned paper from the mariposa mat stack and then a simon says stamp die.

snow day card making

An unexpected snow day meant some crafting. I made 6 of these. A little plain but they will do. All the cuts done on my explore. The sentiment stampin up.

shaker card

My son is kinda freaking out he is turning 30 this month so of course I had to showcase his age on the card. I welded the 30 from the cricut font on the explore to create this card.
