Easy and Elegant

I designed these cards for a class a while back - aren't they so pretty?

The card kit and stamp sets are now retired but the new catalogs have a TON of adorable new sentiments and amazing card kits!

These were unbelievably fast and easy to put together!

Wouldn't these make beautiful gifts? 

Here's a great idea - Make a bunch at a time, then give them as gifts with a pretty bow tied around them!

Here's what I used:

Something to Celebrate Stamp Set with Crumb Cake Ink

Designer Cards & Envelopes from the Occasions Mini

Pool Party Taffeta Ribbon

Pool Party Cardstock

Here's my next card - you could make a set of 4 and stamp a different sentiment on each. What a wonderful and heartfelt gift to give someone you love!

Here's what I used:

Pink Pirouette Cardstock

Loving Thoughts Stamp Set from the Occasions Mini and has now been carried over to this year's catalog! This stamp set is a must have!

Pink Pirouette Taffeta Ribbon

Very Vanilla Cardstock

Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder

Clear Rhinestone Brads

Preschool Valentines

My cutie patootie Toryn goes to preschool 3 mornings a week and she has 45 little school-mates. Soooo YES! She and I made 45 mini 3x3 flat Valentines for her little friends. She helped me punch out the hearts with Stampin' Up! glimmer paper and glue them on while I did the stamping. 

The sentiment says "Hope today finds you feeling as loved as you really are". She then signed her name on the bottom. (Well, she signed or scribbled her name on about 2 of them then ran out of steam so I had to help sign the rest).

For the teachers, we made a full mini 3x3 card that opens and put them inside mini envelopes. Toryn is so excited to pass them out at school.

This heart punch as to be my most favorite ever! I use it all the time! 

The Heart Punch coordinates PERFECTLY with the Sweetheart stamp set and Heart Cups!

Hugs & Happy Crafting!

Card Buffet!

Every month I offer a Stamping Card Buffet Class and everyone who joins gets to stamp 10 cards for $20! Just like a food buffet, you get to pick and choose which cards and how many of each you want to make. They are sweet and simple designs but oh so cute and adorable and super easy and fast to put together! Here are just a few of the cards I designed for this class. It was a great turn out!

Not everyone lives close enough to attend my classes or they fill up so you can always purchase kits to assemble (I pre-stamp, cut, emboss and punch) and you get to do the fun stuff - assemble and take credit for making it!

OR

If you love the card and want to purchase it fully assembled just email me!
