I Played With a Little Froggy Today

When Sale a Bration started and I saw the darling little frogs in the SO HOPPY TOGETHER Stamp Set, I knew it was a must have for some fun whimsical cards.

 This first one was inspired by Melissa Davies. I think it is adorable - only wishing it was not a "brew", but more like a soda, but the people purchasing my cards will probably think the "brew" is a great thing.

Product used: BUBBLE OVER Stamp Set, BOTTLES AND BUBBLE FRAMELITS DIES 
Card Stock Colors: Granny Apple Green, Early Espresso, Real Red, Crumb Cake
Ink: Smoky Slate & Memento Black
Granny Apple Green Blends
And a variety of bling - whatever I could find laying around. Some are current, some are not.

Card #2 was inspired by Linda Suarez and features the WELL SAID BUNDLE - "HAPPY" stamped in Gorgeous Grape and "birthday" cut form Gorgeous Grape Card Stock.

On both of the cards I was able to cut out my frogs with the coordinating dies that is available to purchase on Friday, March 1st.

Also used: 

THICK WHISPER WHITE for the card base (I really like to use the THICK for the base because it holds up so much better)

GINGHAM GALA Designer Paper

RECTANGLE STITCHED SHAPES FRAMELITS

GINGHAM GALA ADHESIVE BACKED SEQUINS

GRANNY APPLE GREEN STAMPN' BLENDS

STAMPIN DIMENSIONALS

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Such a fun day filled with love for one another, but it is also my sweet hubbies birthday!

Happy Birthday to the love of my life! I wouldn't want to do this with anyone else than you!

Today I will share with you the Valentine's Day cards that I made for my family and friends.

How many Valentine cards do you send out?

 At last count I had 60!

The HEY LOVE! Stamp Set is so "stinkin'" cute!! I used the MIRROR IMAGE technique to make the side by side mirror image little skunks. Inspired by: Debbie Henderson

These are the treats I made for (L to R) Gracie, Lily, Sawyer & Tyler. Miss Mercy is too little to get Valentine treats, but next year...

Again, I used the HEY LOVE! Stamp Set to make Sawyer's Valentine. Sawyer loves monkeys, especially his Curious George so I thought he would really like this ape stamped image.
I used REGALS DESIGNER PAPER (in Cherry Cobbler), RECTANGLE STITCHED FRAMELITS, and the very cool hearts framelits from MEANT TO BE bundle

Sooooo cute!! I love these 2 little mice, and if my childhood friend was still here with me, I'm sure I would've sent this card to her.

I used SWEET STORYBOOK Stamp Set and the Valentine greeting from the FOREVER LOVELY Stamp Set. Inspired by Ann Schach. The hearts dies are from the MEANT TO BE Bundle, and the beautiful embossing folder is the LACE DYNAMIC TEXTURED EMBOSSING FOLDER.

This is the card that I made for Tyler. Teen boys are harder to come up with ideas but I really liked this idea inspired by Dori. I changed up the designer paper on one of the bottles and added a heart. As far as I know, Tyler doesn't have a girlfriend yet, but I do know that he loves his sodas!

Another fun treat that was displayed at the Open House.
I had big plans to hold a Mommy & Me Valentine treat class, but with my vacation and my dad being in the hospital, I never had the time to plan it, but these would be so very cute to hand out to the kids class mates at school.

12 Weeks Until Gracie's 13th Birthday

Count down to Gracie's 13th Birthday!
12 more weeks!
This is Gracie at one year old.

I used to love to take photos of the grandkids (and my day care kids). Of course it really helped that I had such a sweet subject as our Gracie-girl!

Gracie's 12 week treat is her favorite beverage: Cherry Coke.

Gracie had a sleep over with us last night so she has all day to sip on her favorite beverage!!

This is the tag that I made for her using the BUBBLE OVER Stamp Set and Dies.

Card #4 using the BLENDED SEASONS BUNDLE is a Christmas theme

I used the WOOD TEXTURES DESIGNER PAPER STACK, Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla, with a bit of Burlap Ribbon. I stamped the image a second time and hand cut out just a few of the holly leaves and popped them up using the MINI DIMENSIONALS

Don't forget about BONUS DAYS!

For every $50 you spend in the month of August, (before shipping and tax) you get a $5 voucher to use towards your September purchases.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Team Shares

Today I brag on my team just a little bit!!
Everyone was in a sharing mode at this months meeting and I couldn't be more happy.
Linda B was really on a roll sharing some awesome crafty stuff she made.

I just love this hand sanitizer holder made with the COFFEE CAFE Stamp Set and Dies. So refreshing looking.

This is a super fun EOS holder

Such a cute tissue holder!!

 Gum Holder

Another EOS holder

 These are adorable stationary boxes. They certainly are a WOW! project

Another Stationary Holder - so pretty in black and white. Sets include Greeting Cards in the back, Tags,, 3x3 Note Cards, Small note pad, a tiny pocket for stamps, and a pen!!

My next team member who shared is Janell A

Janell also really went to town creating, and she said she has been doing a lot of different folds.

 Inside:

Such beautiful butterflies - we are really going to miss having WATERCOLOR WINGS Stamp Set in the new catalog.

These are 5x5 Explosion Cards

This card is called the IMPOSSIBLE CARD

Such a fun side fold with a peek-a-boo window

Super Fun-Fold Card using SHARE WHAT YOU LOVE

Trifold Card - beautiful! this card uses PETAL PALETTE Stamp Set and Dies

These 2 cards are absolutely stunning! Janelle stamped her own designer paper that shows through the "ray". Who needs Designer Paper??

This fun top hat treat is adorable and Janell even agreed to teach this as our MAKE  N TAKE project

 at a future team meeting.

Looks like Janell had fun with the BEAUTIFUL BOUQUET Stamp Set and Dies!!

 

 Look at the detail how she popped up some of the pieces!

These last 2 were made using the WILD ABOUT FLOWERS Stamp Set and some retired butterflies rom Papillion Potpourri

 On this one she swiped the Whisper White Craft Ink pad over the raised image from the LOVELY FLORAL DYNAMIC EMBOSSING FOLDER.

 A sweet bear using the A LITTLE WILD Stamp Set and Dies

I forgot to get a photo on how this card opens, but it flips up for a fun fold! What an amazing job she did!!

Thanks Janelle!

This is another EXPLOSION card made by Shirley using BUBBLE OVER Stamp Set and dies

These next 3 cards were made by Inez

These 2 were stamped with the Stamp Set PEACEFUL REFLECTIONS . A Stamp Set that Inez got during the April OnStage event.

This last one by Inez used DRAGONFLY DREAMS

This belly band card was made by Lynda using the VARIED VASES Stamp Set

These last two cards were shared by Peggy

 SEA OF TEXTURES BUNDLE - So cute!

ENJOY LIFE Stamp Set

Thank you so much gals for sharing your talents with us!!

My talent was trying to remember who made what and I am pretty sure I got some wrong, so let me know so I can give credit where credit is due.
