happy birthday gorgeous

For today's card I used the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set along with a piece of Foil Frenzy DSP in Tangerine Tango.  The flowers are stamped in Powder Pink and Berry Burst.  Thanks for stopping by!

This Little Piggy

This stamp set was close to the top of my list of favorites when the new catalog came out.  I love the cuteness factor but I also like that I have a story to scrapbook about that I can use this set for as well.  I grew up on a farm and we raised lots of different kinds of animals but the pigs were my favorite and after all I was named after a pig.  My parents couldn't decide on a name for me because I was their first and they just knew I was going to be a boy, so they had no girl names picked out.  The doctor finally gave them 10 minutes to decide on something so my dad picked up a magazine in the room and started looking through it.  It just happened to be a farming magazine and there was a cartoon in it about a pig named Sandy, so I was named Sandra Lynn. 

Falling Flowers

Today's card is somewhat a CASE of a card I saw on Pinterest but evidently didn't pin it because now I can't find it.  I used the Falling Flowers stamp set and the May flowers Framelit dies.  I think this is the first time I have used this set and I got it when last years annual catalog first came out.  I am going to do better....I have good intentions but somehow don't see them through. I have set a goal to ink up every stamp I have that hasn't seen ink before the end of 2017.  Wish me luck!

Thanks a Latte

I am not much of a coffee drinker, usually one cup in the morning when it is cold outside, but I always purchase any stamps related to coffee.  Coffee is a reminder of my mother, she would have a cup of coffee in her hand from the time she got out of bed until she went back to bed at night.  She used a lot of creamer in hers but never any sweetner. Thanks for stopping by!

Congratulations

 

 

 

I am terrible at taking pictures, this one looks crooked but it really isn't and I am too lazy to take it over so pretend it is straight. I used the Bouquet Bunch dies and stamps for this card.  My husband's great nephew is getting married in a few weeks so I made this for him and his beautiful bride to be.  Thanks for stopping by!

At Home

This card didn't turn out exactly how I planned but anyway...I wanted to add the sleeping puppy from the stamp set Just Sitting Here but really couldn't decide where to put him.  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Retirement

I have a sweet friend who I met when I lived in Alabama who is retiring so I made this card for her.  She owns a condo in Gulf Shores and  will be moving there,  This is the last scrap of this DSP I have left, sure wish Stampin'  Up! would keep these favorites around longer than one catalog, I am sure they would be a hit.  Thanks for stopping by!
