Birthday Blues

Blues and greens make great alternatives to the pinks of Sweet Girl. 

I love using the different font styles of the image Birthday and Happy. Creates a great visual.

I used a Sweet Girl Chipboard element from the Complements finishing with a bow created from the NEW Sapphire Twine.

To add contrast, I used the wood grain striped zip strip (the 1/2" x 12" labels on our paper).

Little Aussie Kangaroo and MORE

Each week I will share one of my favorite stamp sets from the NEW Seasonal Expression 2!!

This week is all about Little Aussie (C1795 - $14.95) and the cutest little animals ever!! There are cute sentiments, stars, hearts, and arrows.


The first card uses the Stitched Rectangle thin cuts (Z4260 - $26.95). Each thin cut rectangle creates a center piece and a frame. The Fern center and the White Daisy frame are used in other cards, love having no scraps!!





and don't forget the inside and the envelope!

To My Bestie

Happy MAY!!


 Our Stamp of the Month for May is all about celebrating our friends!!

Balloons, beautiful sentiments, bouquets and flowers and if you look close, our bestie image and the balloons and bouquet fit nicely together.


My first project is my version of a card we created at our Seasonal Expression 2 Idea Book Launch event. The center piece was stamped with the scallop border image and a dotted line was added from a stamp from my stash. 

Celebrate was the perfect sentiment as we celebrate a new month and a NEW Seasonal Expression 2 Idea Book!
