Sending Good Luck Wishes

My final card this month showing off the Good Luck stamp set. Kind of a "sleeper set" that you might not see flipping through the catalogue quickly. Sharing a few different ways to use it and other stamp sets: stamp a small greeting across a layer like the horseshoes here; colour a white or beige ribbon with the coordinating Stampin' Blends for a match; add an embossed layer for texture and dimension and finally, add a layer to your greeting label by cutting it in half and adhere behind. Enjoy!

Starburst Card featuring retiring In Colors

My take on this starburst card featuring three of our retiring In Colors: Pretty in Pink, Petunia Pop and Shy Shamrock. This was the basis of a bunch of these layouts that I made for upcoming events. If I were to replicate, I could add some ribbon and emboss the starburst layers to add some dimension to it all. But it was a nice starter card to get the creative juices flowing! Do you do that too, sometimes?

Pretty Bow Tying with Cloud Cover 5/8" Textured Ribbon

When you're tying bows and knots, there's nothing like a soft wide ribbon like the Cloud Cover 5/8" Textured Ribbon. This ties like a dream. To mail a card with this thick ribbon, I would likely lie it flat and add a flat faux knot to it. Takes a little of the bulk out. Check out this video by Diane Dimich, a demonstrator in the US on how to make a flat bow.

Bring on Spring with Sunshine & Tulips

Spring has sprung? Are we there yet? Oh I do hope so....Today's card is from my bestie Tamara Bertram from Tamara's Paper Trail in Edmonton, AB with this stinkin' cute tulip card featuring the Sunshine & Tulips bundle. Keeping it simple, this card works for multiple occasions. Pair it with a stamp set like Banner Sayings with the Three Banner Punch. Love this!

Card inspiration for cards, tags, treat holders and scrapbook pages

I always look at the cards I create to find other ways to use the designs: on a tag, bag, treat holder, scrapbook page and more! This one would be so perfect for little name cards or tags for a Shower, Mother's Day, Birthday gifts. Lovely how these two sweet bugs - ladybug and bee - scream spring in an adorable way. The background is a repeated stamp in matching Old Olive ink on Basic White with Petal Pink. Enjoy!
