Looking Sharp and Simple

Hi stampers! Happy Monday! I'm sharing another very simple card today using just our notecards, stamps, and ink! The stamp set is a super cute one from the new 2020 January-June Mini Catalog!

I LOVE puny sets and this one is so cute! I'm such a sucker for them! One of my very first purchases was a similar set!

I mean! How cute are those????? Since it's been pretty cold out the last few days, I thought I'd use the cactus and pretend it's warmer here! You may be asking who you'd send this kind of card to and I think you could send it to anyone and that it would just make a fun any time, any occasion card to a friend!

I did pull a Blender Pen in to add some color to the cactus. That's a great tip if you don't have a big collection or markers. You can basically make a marker out of any ink pad you have! I added my "sand" from the Label Me Bold Stamp Set, it's a cute little accent set!

Ian is home recovering after being sick over the weekend so hopefully I can get some stamp time in, we'll see!

Happy stamping!

Check You Out

Hi stampers! Happy Thursday! It's Thursday, right? HA! I'm not used to having Ian in school four days in a row yet and now a short week is going to really throw me next week! I meant to have a post for you yesterday but I got a headache Tuesday night which turned into a migraine over night and I was up for hours in pain and got sick! UGH! I haven't gotten sick from a headache in a very long time and I'm really hoping it doesn't become a "thing" again. Thankfully, my mom is here visiting so she could help me out. I was able to do a little stamping today as well as take a nap which I never do!

Anyway, I've been meaning to share this card for a while because I'm in LOVE with this guy! I left this off of my initial Annual Catalog order and that was SO STUPID! He's so cute and I love books. I also love that this set is perfect for #simplestamping! I actually have very few just stamp and go sets and you NEED to add this one to your collection!

Seriously, I just can't with this card! It's so simple and so cute! I adore these colors together and they are making me long for fall or at least for some cooler temperatures! You could step this one up a bit by cutting out the books and popping them up and adding a sentiment popped up as well.

Happy stamping!

#simplestamping

Hi stampers! Happy Friday! Where has this week gone???? I do not have enough (online or in person) shopping days left until Christmas, lol! It's a good thing Stampin' Up! is on a "simple stamping" kick because that's all the time I have for cards!

At onstage, they really wanted to focus on the three things you need to stamp a card, stamps, paper, and ink. Sometimes it really can be that simple! I love making "fancy" cards but I've found that I really like keeping it simple, too! Simple can be stunning! Our Notecards make it easy, you don't have to cut them and they are pre-scored to fold! And they include envelopes. I went ahead and even stamped the envie for this one! IF THIS lazy stamper can do that, you can too ;-)

Ack! Isn't it cute!?!? Can we talk about those cascading stars for a minute? SO PRETTY!

New to stamping? All you need is a stamp, pack of notecards, and a few ink pads and you can make these as your Christmas cards! And even if you're an experienced stamper, take a minute to try some simple stamping! It was a challenge for me but a lot more fun than I expected!

Happy stamping!
