I Heart U!

There is lots of inspiration right now for VDay Cards. Tonight I decided to play along with the weekly challenge over at Hand Stamped Sentiments. I decided to have a CAS design with a 5"x 5" Valentine's Day card. Enjoy!

It's the Month of Love

Today I got together with a good friend to make our VDay cards. I love all of the colors and how this card came out. The spring mini catalog has so many fun things that I got to use on this card. This card goes perfect with the theme over at Stampin' Celebration! Be sure to check out the other inspirations. Happy Heart Day!

Today I finally got to play with a bunch of new products from the Spring Catalog.

New Year....Time to start stamping again

 Wow what a great way to end of 2012! I have not stamped in over two weeks and  I am totally missing it.  I am glad all of the hustle and bustle is over because it is now time to get it into gear for 2013! To help get some inspiration I combined two different weekly challenges for a belated Birthday card I needed to make. I used the color combo from Pals Paper Arts and Fab Friday!

Holiday One-On-One Swap

I recently participated in Brian King's One-for-One Holiday Swap. Check out the two post that showcase all of the amazing talent. Thanks Brian for hosting a fun swap! Post #1 and Post #2.

Here are the two cards I sent in! I hope you enjoy them! Off to work on my Christmas Cards. I have 90 completed. Only 60 more to go :)

Fancy Fun Folds!

I made this card a few weeks ago to practice the tri-fold card. I am using this technique for our Xmas Cards. It is an easy and fun fold! Take a 12x12 piece of paper and cute it to 12" x 5 1/2". Score at 4 and 8. The inner piece of paper is cute at 3 3/4" and 5 1/4". 

This cards fits right in over at the Hand Stamped Sentiments challenge this week.As I am posting the picture I realized my DSP matches the banner for this challenge, he he. Be sure to play along!
