From Our House to Yours

Hello, Friends!  It's another wonderful Wednesday 
and I have a Valentine's Day card that turned into a birthday card.  
I was thinking VDay when I started, 
but then wanted it to send it to a friend for his birthday.  

I love these house images from JFF Stamps 
and I combined them with some original designer paper that I have shown you before.  The gesso top coat reminds me a little of a snowstorm 
and since many of you are having a real winter, 
I thought I would send you a little color with the imaginary snowstorm.

This card idea can be used for a new home, new baby, 
and anytime you want to send a little love to someone.

UMS7013 Sentiments 1 Unmounted Sheet


I will share my card  with all my friends at Word Art Wednesday.

I Adore Amaryllis

So many flowers to love.  Hello, my friends.
It's time for a technique challenge at MFPSS.
It's called Block It Off.  We have a tutorial, but
can you guess how to do it by looking at my sample?
Check out our tutorial and join us this week!

Simple Hearts

As February begins, we think of Valentine's Day.
My first card uses a MFPSS stamp set called Big Cupcake.
Kraft card stock, a dots embossing folder, and a bit of red to tickle your fancy.


Big Cupcake

Red, red, red is everywhere so for my second card, I have a non-traditional color for you.
I used the All About Love mini stamp set as the focal point
and die cut a window and thin bow.
Then a simple embossing and it was finished.

If you're thinking of making a CAS--
clean and simple-- card with hearts,
come and join us at
the MFP Stamp Shop Blog challenge.

Hearts...and Flowers?

It's February already and we're thinking hearts and flowers.
But for my guy? I had to think clean and simple and no flowers.

I took my Stamptangle Pattern Block (J3713)
heat embossed with black EP, 
and die cut hearts of different sizes.
Some polka dotted ribbon, Sentiments 1 (UMS7018) and
distress ink sponging, and my cards were ready to assemble.

As you can see, I ended up with three
Valentine's or Anytime Cards.
That is the beauty of a large background stamp image.
It gives and gives and gives.









See you soon!
