Happy Friday all! Sorry to not have posted sooner been working on a few other things on my other site HERE.  But wrapping things up and wanted to share this with you.

So I have such a hard time just keeping a card simple.  I tend to overthink it ALOT! Well seeing tons of awesome and "simple" ideas at Leadership this year I realized it's not that hard! Here is one that was shared from Stampin' Up! I am showing 3 versions – Simple, Step it Up and Step it up some more!


Thanks CardFrom left to right:

Simple, quick and fast. Then you've got a stepped up version! A few punched out images and you still have a quick and fast card.

Samples are using all the New In-Colors and Stamp Set from SAB Vintage Verses! LOVE this set!



Thanks Card 1

Here is the final Stepped up some more card!

All I did was add some Pearls to the center of each butterfly. Just to give it that extra Bling!

I have to stop overthinking things so much! Will share another super easy card with you a little later!

Thaks for stopping by and as always….

Happy Stampin,

Baby Chic ValentineGood Morning! Hope your weekend is off to an awesome start!  So far so good over here!

I have another quick share before I head on out to my sons Basketball game.  Now isn't this the cutest? I did one like this many years ago but for Easter. Which you can see HERE!

I came across it and thought how cute to make one holding a heart.  So this is what I came up with!  I've got a few more shares but will post a little later!

Questions email me or comment here!

Love is in the air

Author: February 8, 2013 0 Comments

So I just couldn’t resist sharing some more swaps. 

So what is sharing here? A few swaps I received from Marlene Salvato at our 2013 Stampin’ Up! Leadership event I went to in Orlando, Florida! 

Seriously are these just the cutest ever?  I LOVE the Little Penguin! I have another one from her that I’ll share with you all later!  I also love the lay out on the both cards. The color combo and textures on the other card are just AWESOME!

Ok, going to relax now it’s chilly and I have a quiet house! Need to finish a blanket that I’m making for my grandmother. Which you can see HERE next week.

Check back in tomorrow for some more ideas! Until then….

Happy Stampin’

 Hi Stampers! Well it’s about time I start sharing right? I know I do apologize my son was sick yet again!!!  He was just sick over his X-mas vacation! Poor him – but this was his first full week back to school and Mom is getting caught up!  So since Stampin’ Up!s Sale-A-Bration is in full swing let me start by sharing some AWESOME ideas from Swaps I received  at Leadership! The 1st card sample is using the Feeling Sentimental Set from the Sale-A-Bration catty! LOVE THEM!  Enjoy!

Ok seriously? Are these not great cards! Talk about simple and pleasing to the eye!

The creators from left to right: Cheryl Segawa, Diana Sarkine and the last has no name on the back of the card!

Here is another great and simple card! I LOVE this card.  Thanks to Georgia for swapping with me!  No last name.

I will have some more shares a little later!  Thanks for stopping by and

Happy Stampin’,

Mixed Bunch Card Share

Author: March 30, 2012 0 Comments

Hi Stampers!

Just a quick card share today! I made this as a Swap for Stampin’ Up!s Leadership in San Antonio in January! I really LOVE this set. It’s very versatile and can be used for many different things.

Thanks So Much Card Recipe

Stamp Set: Mixed Bunch #125535 (w)

Ink: Pool Party #1229389, Early Espresso #119670

Cardstock: Very Vanilla #101650, Peach Parfait #119794, Pear Pizzazz #119795, Pool Party #122924 & Everyday Enchantment DSP #126154 (SAB only)

Accessories: Punches: Blossom #125603, Modern Label #119849, Word Window #119857, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border #119275, Blossom Petals Builders #121808

I cut my DSP as follows:
4 x 3 – doing it this way you will get 12 cards and no waste. I attached it to the bottom of the Very Vanilla Cardstock 4 x 5 1/4 then placed that on the Main Base of your cards 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. I got this idea from a fellow Demonstrator Catherine Pool! Talk about getting more bang for your buck and no wasted DSP?? Love that!

Questions? Don’t hesitate to ask! 2 more days til Sale-A-Bration ends! Click on the Order 24/7 button on the right hand corner.

Have a great day and THANK YOU for stopping by and as always..
Happy Stampin’,
