Friendship Card: From My Heart

This friendship card features the timeless retiring stamp set From My Heart, consisting of lovely sentiments and graceful images. I’m happy to say that the Typeset Designer Paper Collection is NOT going to be retired.  Woohoo!  I love it (especially the striped pages) as you can probably tell from many of my latest projects!  🙂 […]

Handmade Christmas Card – ILCS26

For today’s handmade Christmas card I pulled out the retired Deck the Halls designer paper collection.  It’s so beautiful on its own. Did you notice there’s no stamping on this homemade card?  The sentiment is embedded right in the patterned paper.  I don’t think you can get any easier than that! The fancy bow was […]

Handmade Baby Card

Hello Honey is the dominant color used on this project, and the name seems quite suitable for a handmade baby card. Isn’t that little guy so sweet?  He (or she) is out of the Occasions Catalog, a single stamp called Baby Bumblebee.  Well, I actually cut the stamp in two to have the greeting separate […]

Really Good Greetings Miss You Card

Today’s Miss You card features the retiring stamp set Really Good Greetings (which you can pick up now for 25% off!) and Typeset Designer Paper.  I’m going to really miss this paper! The little red heart provides a little “pop” of color and was punched out using the Owl Builder Punch. I began with the […]

Birthday Shaker Card

I got the bug to create a birthday shaker card today.  Stampin’ Up! has these awesome Shaker Frames, and you can make a lot of cards with what comes in the package.  Of course they’re circles and, as you can see, my card is using a square.  So I just took the circles and cut […]

Let Your Hair Down and Create a Birthday Card

Handmade All Occasion Greeting Card

This bright & cheery handmade all occasion greeting card could be used for birthdays, graduations, pretty much any celebration. I combined the Snapshot and Say Cheese stamp sets with the retro feel of the Flashback Designer Paper for a fun look.  The center opening makes this card just a little out of the ordinary.  Recreate […]

Create a Birthday Card for Him

With the Guy Greetings and Maritime Designer Paper you can create a birthday card for him that he’ll love. I made this custom birthday card for my brother-in-law, who also happened to have been in the Navy at one time… how perfect! I love the bright and bold color scheme in the patterned papers, perfect […]

Mothers Day Card Ideas

It’s time to start thinking about your Mothers Day card ideas.   You don’t always have to create fancy and intricate, time-consuming cards.  A clean and simple card can be just as beautiful and doesn’t have to be boring! Here I used a couple smaller strips of Typeset Designer Paper to set off the stamped images.  […]

Happy Easter Cards

Make Happy Easter cards with the adorable stamp set, For Peeps’ Sake. I grabbed a strip of patterned paper from the Birthday Bash Specialty Designer Paper collection, and my color scheme followed from there.  Night of Navy was used to stamp the greeting and to tie all the pieces together.  The egg colors are Bermuda […]
