Thankful Pumpkin

Hi stampers!  Look at me, posting on a Monday :-)  This card is for you, all of my friends and readers who are here when I decide to blog and when I need you :-)


I finally ordered the Come To Gather DSP and I'm so glad I did.  I love the colors and I love the way the rustic wood pattern pairs with the gingham!  I also love the addition of Cajun Craze here, too!  My sentiment is from the To Every Season Stamp set and I think it pairs nicely as well!

Make sure to check out the supplies in my FB group if you have any questions!

Happy stamping!

Fab Friday 176

Hi stampers!  Happy Friday!  Sorry I've been MIA!  It's been a crazy few weeks.  Ian got sick, we went to Illinois, came home for three days and then few to Disneyland and San Diego (Jon had a work event).  We came home just before Halloween and the time change and I just haven't caught up with my life yet :-)  I'm kind of always behind though, ha!

Anyway, I'm hoping to get back into the groove and Fab Friday is helping me out today, forcing me to stamp and share!



It's kind of a fall combo I think.  My apple has blushing bride in it, although you can't see as much of it as I'd like.


I have to laugh and tell you a bit of a funny story!  I went to make this card early Thursday morning (thinking look at me go of course)  because Jon had a medical appointment later in the day that would take most of my time (he's fine).  I stamped an "apple" and used my daubers to color it in and just wasn't happy with it.  I kept looking at it and could NOT figure it out.  It finally dawned on me.... :-)

Make sure to check out what the rest of the team did and play along!  If you're looking for the supply list, make sure you follow me in my FB group as that's where those live now!

An Apple A Day

Hi stampers!  We're halfway to the weekend!  Will you be stamping over the weekend?  Saturday is World Card Making Day so I'm going to try to get in my stamp room!

Here's a fun fall card you could send to anyone!  I love the Harvest Hellos stamp set!  Ian had a little taste test of different varieties of apples last week and keeps talking about it.  That totally reminds me of this card, ha!  His favorite was the pink lady!


Our DPS stacks sure make cute apples!  I used the Brights Collection here with Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, and Granny Apple Green (fitting, no?).

I used some post it notes and masked off the comma and the rest of this sentiment from the set and just used the Hey There.  Don't forget you can usually use your sentiment in any way you want!

I did some pattern mixing yesterday and today should we call this pattern coordinating?  Ha!  I paired the Buffalo Check Background Stamp with the gingham.  I wasn't sure it would work, but it totally does, or at least I think so.  What do you think?

In keeping with our new and improved website, the supply list can now be found on my FB group which you can get to HERE.  Make sure to click and join so you don't miss anything!

Hey There, Pumpkin

Hi stampers!  Happy Monday!  Technology is NOT my friend!  Anyone else?  I'm sharing a cute card today but my photo editing app wasn't working so I did the best I could, I hope I do it justice since it's JUST SO CUTE!


How fun is the pattern mixing on this card???  Don't be afraid to mix them up!  And don't forget about our Decorative Masks!  This set from the Holiday Catalog are super cute and to be honest, I forgot these simple dots were in there!  I inked them up with a sponge and made sure I went heavier with the ink in some places and lighter in the other and I LOVE it!

One of my oldest and best friends always greets me with, "Hey, Pumpkin", so this card will be on the way to her!

Fab Friday 172

Hi stampers!  Happy Friday....the 13th.  Eek!  With the full moon and today, things are always a little sideways, lol!  It's been busy over here with the new office space I've gotten and I've worked hard to get it cleaned up (the whole house, construction is so gross and messy) and functional.  Anyway, taking some time to share the new Fab Friday challenge with you!


Here's what I did!  I had to use the gingham DSP in Pretty Peacock because I just love it!  I thought it would pair perfectly with Country Home.  I also thought that would pair with the Mercury Glass Designer Acetate and Snowfall Accents Puff Paint and I wasn't wrong!  We tend to get caught up in the Holiday Catalog but this is a great autumn themed set from the Annual Catalog!

I stamped right on the acetate and then cut out my can.


You can see the puff paint here.  It was fun to use!  I just dabbed a little on each cotton boll and then was careful not to tip my paper while I heated it from the bottom.  It popped up kind of like popcorn! Isn't it fun and perfect for this set????


Make sure to check out what the team did!  I'm out, got a headache and in a weird funk so maybe I'll come back and link supplies later.

Happy stamping!

Thankful For SU

Hi stampers!  Happy hump day!  I'm slowly getting back to normal here, only to have the upcoming holiday throw a wrench in my routine yet again :-)  I cannot believe it's almost Thanksgiving!  It was JUST Halloween!

I'm always thankful when I can pair two products together unexpectedly, just like with this card!  The "give thanks" sentiment in Labels to Love fits just perfectly in the punch from the Christmas Traditions Punch Box.


This card may look complicated, but it was pretty easy.  A quick water color wash and then some splatters.  You can see I didn't let it fully dry before...I'm impatient like that ;-)  Then, I just layered everything up!

Some linen trim, a few sequins, some sparkle, and a button sealed the deal!  I just love these colors together!

I'm also thankful for ALLLLL of the friends Stampin' Up has blessed me with!  I'm so happy I got to hug so many of them last week.

Happy stamping!

Pillow Talk

Hi stampers! Before we get started, let's take a moment to remember our country on this dark day.  We will never forget 9/11.   I'll also never forget my sweet, sweet Grandma Bingamon who was born on 9/11.  You'd be hard pressed to meet a better person than her, so I like to think that her being born on this day makes up just a little bit of the ugliness that has tarnished this date!  I miss her every day and I aspire to be like her! <3 p="">
And now onto my project for today.  I don't often do non-card projects but really, I need to!  The great thing about SU is that you can make your own detailed boxes OR you can fancy up a pre-made item like this pillow box!



I plan on putting a gift card for a friend in this one but there are so many fun little things you can tuck into it!  Aren't the polka dots with the kraft color just the best?  I do have a retired product (eek) because I didn't get this shared in time.  But, you could cut out an oval or any other shape to recreate this!  I just cut a belly band from DSP and wrapped it around my pillow box and then glued my label on after it'd punched a couple of holes for the ribbon.  You'll want to glue it down so it doesn't fall off and then tie the bow!  I also finally broke out my corrugated embellishments!


Isn't this just the cutest?

Copper Leaf

Hi stampers!  Happy Monday!  How can it be almost mid-September already?  Ian's been in school for two weeks and I'm still not back in a good routine!  I have not been using my time well, lol!  By the time I get to the gym and then get home, cleaned up, and eat lunch, most of my free time is gone! Maybe I'll figure it out this week ;-)


Today's card combines some of my favorites!  I used the Wood Textures DSP (don't forget about it because it's "old" and in the Annual Catalog), the Falling For Leaves set, and the baubles framelits. It also stars a returning favorite, SHIMMER PAINT!  We had this some years ago and it's back and in a few new colors and it's SO PRETTY!


You can see the details here.  Isn't that doily cool?  The embossing mats make it super easy to make really neat accents.  For the leaf, I took some inspiration from the catalog and sponged the Copper Shimmer Paint onto some cardstock.  After it was dry, I stamped over it in Cajun Craze.


A few other accents and it was finished!  I really love this one and I love the combo of Cajun, Blackberry, and Copper!

Happy stamping!
