Better Late Than Never



Hi all!!

Kim here, again, and today I'm posting a little later than normal.
That's ok, right?

I had this idea in my head for a few days. 
What can I do with all the little scraps of ribbon that are in my mason jar?
The striped panel on the card is just scraps wrapped around a piece of cardstock and secured with ATG tape. Cool idea, right? 

I pulled out my Elzybells stamps to go with the colorful and playful ribbons. 

Hope you are having a great day!

Love You Forever


Hi all!

Can you believe January is almost over? 
It's time for Valentine cards and lots of pinks and reds.

I want to start out with a CAS and pretty Valentine card. 
It can also be used as a general "I Love You" card for someone you care about.

I don't know what it is about polka dots and white space, but they really make me happy!

Make sure to take some time to pull out your old supplies and create something.


xoxo,
Kim

Celebrate!

Hello there!  Today I have another card to share with you.  This one is a birthday card I made this weekend for my friend who turned 40!  



I pulled out some Webster's Pages paper that I had in my stash. I don't know when this was released but I'm sure it's been sitting around for a little bit of time never used!  Turns out it it worked perfectly for my card.  The numbers were pieces of chipboard I had and I added Stazon ink and glitter.  The ribbon is a piece i found hanging out, the flip side of the ribbon is actually polka dots but I wanted the solid side so I flipped it.

So go find some really cool pattern paper in your stash and make a card, you'd be surprised how cool and simple you can go.

Take care!  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Day

Hey there Stamping With The Oldies fans!  Maria here this week with some cards to share!

Today I'm sharing a card using this great girl image from Queen Kat Designs.  I haven't inked her up and had her for a while so here she is.  This is from the Willow Lane Collection and is called Mother May I.



I went through my stash for pattern papers and found the doilies so now I must use those.  I thought this came out very cute for a little girl birthday card or just a fun all occasion card!

NOW be sure to dig through your stash and use what you have!  C'mon you can do it!

Thanks for stopping by!

 Eva here with a card for you today. I made this card a while ago, but I really like the kraft and pink together and how this turned out, so I wanted to share it here. The beautiful stamp is from Unity.
 
 
I hope everyone has had a great start on the new year. For me it has been super busy, but fun too. Here in NC the weather has been spring like for the past few days, so I have been having a lot of fun playing with the kids outside. Today however I am going to spend some time playing with my stamps and hopefully make some Valentine's Day cards.
 
Thank you for stopping by!

Playing the Waiting Game

I'm trying to patiently wait for a delivery. I'm not that good at patience, though. So, I thought I'd share a little project with you while I wait. I'm hoping that getting involved in something will trigger the delivery!

I made this card from a kit created by a friend of mine. While I can't take credit for the design (which I adore), I can take credit for the coloring. Yep, copic markers are some of my best friends!



I'm not wishing this month away, but I am a fan of Valentine's. Just because you don't have a sweetheart doesn't mean you can't celebrate. What are your plans? I love myself, so I'm thinking I'll treat myself to dinner and a movie. Maybe I'll do a practice run before then. Hahaha!!

Hope your January is still shiny and new!
