Happy 40th

I keep forgetting to put this card up.  I made this last November for a good friend, who obviously turned 40! 

For all the "40's" in the background, I just typed "40" a bunch of times, and then changed the font for each one of them and printed it on card stock.

Stamp Sets:  Doodle Alphabet, Classic Alphabet
Colors:  Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss, More Mustard
Designer Series Paper:  Rockabilly

Primary Wordle

I just made this Primary Wordle to use as a binder cover. After I was done, it gave me the opportunity to share it with others, so I am, just in case anyone else would like something similar. I love Wordle!

Flowers

I have the hardest time staying away from flowers! I really have to make myself resist! This set is called No One Like You. I think this is the only card I let myself make with flowers for the craft fair. I already had too many in my FOUR full boxes. I needed to branch out a little. OH WAIT! I just realized I already posted a flower one. See, I told you I have a hard time. It could be that 90% of my stamps are flowers. Ugh!

I hope you love this as much as we did. Have a great day!

Lovely Trees

I've had these trees stamped on this paper and sitting around forever, and finally decided to do something with them! I think I was showing someone this technique, and just stuck the piece of paper back in the stamp case. I inked up the trees in Certainly Celery and then used several colors of markers, including blues and purples to tap some ink onto the stamp before pressing it onto the paper.

The trees come from one of my oldest sets, Lovely As a Tree. The background stamp is Canvas.

Pretty Leaves

Autumn Splendor is one of the best sets! I have really enjoyed it. For the most part, I have used it for fall cards. However, as you can see below, you can use it for other things too, just by changing up the colors. The leaves are so beautiful!

This is one of those cards where you could make a bunch, then leave off the greeting and add one when you need it....Happy Birthday, Thank You, Thinking of You, etc.
