Hello and welcome to this months Christmas in July blog hop. I am featuring the Christmas Scottie bundle with a simple yet different cut.
The card base is 11-1/2”x 4-1/4” scored at 5-1/2”. Then cut the top 2-1/8” x 5-1/2” and save for later add-on project. You can now run the bottom 2-1/8” x 5-1/2” through the embossing folder of your choice. For this card I used the Gingham design.
The save for later cut piece now becomes a gift tag.

Welcome to this months Team Stamp It Father’s Day Blog Hop. This is the place to be for masculine card ideas. The sentiments don’t have to be related to Father’s Day as you will see in my cards today.
I chose the He’s All That stamp set which is also a part of the He’s the Man suite. I love the options provided in color and design of the designer’s series paper (DSP).
First design up today is To the man that has everything. Fairly basic card using 2 pieces of DSP measuring 1-1\4” x 2” 1 piece of cardstock 2” x 2-1/4”to stamp your sentiment. The nice thing about this, you can mix those if you want your sentiment at top, center as shown or bottom. For the strip of crushed curry it is 2” x 1/2”. I used a standard hand held paper punch to nip the two corners.
As for the second design today, it’s all about the layers and the time worn embossing folder (EF) in Crushed Curry 4” x 5-1\4”.n I forgot to list below. All three strips of DSP are 1-1\4” wide The first strip is 5”, second, 4-1/2” and the last is 4”.

Hello and welcome to this months Team Stamp It Easter Blog Hop.
It’s been a busy couple of weeks between work and my friend Niki and I have been getting ready for a vendor/craft show. Wish us luck – they seem to be hit and miss. I don’t know if we are not faced with the right shoppers or if they really are not intrigued by our creations. #cardmakingisnotforeveryone
Today I’m showing you a couple of cards and treat packets using Easter Friends cling stamp set. Also brought off the shelf is the soon to retire Timeless Tulips photopolymer stamp set which you can find here.

Welcome to this months Team Stamp-It Spring Blog Hop. As Sale-a-Bration comes to an end on February 28th and many of us are waiting for that moment to say “spring has sprung”. I’m afraid we will be waiting a bit longer. Until then, I hope you enjoy this months tour.
I choose to focus on the Daffodil Afternoon 12” x 12” DSP (designer series paper) and share with you some #simplestamping. I personally didn’t purchase the Daffodil daydream bundle. There are too many pieces and detailed for me and the amount of time I actually get to spend stamping these days.
Two of my cards are using 4” x 4” bases and the third is standard 5 1/2” x 4 1/4” portrait.

Welcome to the team Stamp It Valentines Day blog hop
I don’t know about you, I have a hard time using my DSP (designer series paper). More times than not, it is because I have an issue with double sided paper. Especially if it has a pretty foil on one side and if there is foil on both sides. — Eeeek!! What are these companies doing to me. Hahaha!
I want to work on using that DSP and the triple fold card is a great way to get started.
Card base in Basic Black – 11″ x 5 ½”, score and fold at 4 ¼”, 7″, and 9 ¾”
Whisper White – 2 ½″ x 5 ¼”
Designer Paper – three pieces
2 ½” x 5 ¼”
1″ x 5 ¼” outside panel
4″ x 5 ¼”
I could have stopped here maybe putting a sentiment on the white panel and it would have been a pretty yet #simplestamping card. The ideas kept flowing to step it up.
On the large panel – I stamped in the center ‘Happy Valentine’s Day’ and on the lower purple heart ’Happy to have you in my life’. This sentiment fit so perfect, it’s like the paper was created that way. Both sentiments come from the Sweet Conversations stamp set available in the Sweet Talk suite.
Next idea – what’s something fun I’ve seen for Valentine’s Day?? Coupon book meets lottery ticket. I printed four fun winning tickets but ended up using only three. I punched using the postage stamp (I forgot to include in the supply list below). I ‘laminated’ with packaging tape. I then punched again.
i wish I had silver metallic to give it more of that lottery ticket look. Adding the scratch off coating may take a couple of coats to cover the words.
To be more realistic, I carefully stamped over the top of the scratch off coating.
Because I may have gotten a little carried away with stamping and adding the scratch tickets, I didn’t like how exposed it was when you folded the card closed. I added the belly band which measures 1 1/4” x 11” and embossed with the dotty hearts folder set.
I hope you enjoyed my card today. Don’t forget to leave a comment to be entered into this month’s drawing like
