Stamping a Smile

Such a busy week this week with not much creative time, but I'm hoping to keep my blog updated.

Here's a little something made entirely of cardstock (I rarely do this!) - but thanks to stamps and colored ink, it's fun.





I used some stamps designed by Kelly Panacci available here at Hampton Art. I used Friends I for the flowers and You and Me for the sentiment. I stamped the flowers in different colors, cut them out, and mounted then with foam adhesive. I used the cricut for the scalloped squares, and the Cuttlebug for the background. The border punch is from Fiskars.

Have a wonderfully "sunshiney" Tuesday and thanks for stopping by!

So...I created this card last night and...

So, I created this card last night in my attempt to try to participate in Hero Arts Blog contest...only to realize I missed the deadline. Insert waa-waa sound effect here. Nevertheless, I was inspired to create, and rose to the challenge.

Since I can't upload it to their site since I missed the deadline, remember... I thought I'd load it here. I actually made two. Why not, after all I had all the supplies all over my table. Just posting here so they will get some luvin'. (wink)




I used the "Happy Hello" clear snap set, Clearsnap "Vivid" ink, cardstock and patterned paper from Stampin Up!

Here's the 2nd card.




I used the same stamps as above with pink, white and kraft cardstock. The ink is Whisper White craft ink from Stampin up! stamped on the kraft cardstock.

That's all I have for now. Sooo many things to do this time of December, as we all know! Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
