Hello Stampers.

Cinderella Shoes

By Vicky Briggs February 20, 2026 // No comments

Hello Stampers. Vicky is here today.

Who doesns't love the Cinderella story, and the movie?

Doesn't a new pair of shoes make you happy?

Cinderella's shoes stand for a magical transformation, love, and your future.

And the right pair of shoes can change your life, rags to riches.

I think this Cinderella saying has a good, positive outcome.

The base card is coral, and then there is olive green. Printed cardstock is on top, and I used some of these colors for the back of the images and the saying.

The Betty image is available in 2 sizes. I used the small one.

A Cowboy Birthday Card

By Vicky Briggs February 11, 2026 // No comments

Hello Fellow Crafter. I did a cowboy birthday card.

They say, A cowboy is a breed tougher than nails and stronger than steel.

Cowboys have been iconic figures for a long time.

And for good reason, they are hardworking, and their style is timeless.

They are a part of American history. My dad loved watching cowboy movies.

I stamped the Barbwire Looped on light tan cardstock and mounted it on dark brown.

I used a piece of black-and-red printed paper as the background for my cowboy.

On a light tan cardstock, I stamped Yippie Yahoo, and cut it out.

On the same light tan cardstock, I used a die and sponged the edges.

The Geezer was stamped on white and colored, then cut out and placed on the die-cut tan cardstock.

The Barbwire Frame was also stamped on the light tan cardstock and cut.

Happy Birthday Fun was stamped on the inside of the frame.

Stamps Used:

Barbwire Looped

Yippie Yahoo

Geezer

Barbwire Frame

I hope you enjoyed the Yippee Yahoo birthday card for a hard-working guy.

Hello Fellow Stampers.

Here is to retirement and the easy life. Retirement is a major change in our lives.

Congratulations to the person who is retiring. No more alarms, and no more packed lunches.

Instead looking forward to lazy days and new adventures.

I started with a purple card. I cut down white cardstock and stamped

Cindy Holding Hand, and colored her.

I use the Grinch Wine Glass, stamped it, and cut it out so I didn't have to mask it.

Goodbye Tension was stamped and cut out with a die.

I cut a larger circle with the same purple as the card.

A Friendship Card

Hello Fellow Stampers. I made a friendship card to send to a friend that I haven't seen in a while.

I wanted her to know I think about her, even tho I might not call as much as I should.

I wanted something more than just saying, "hello".

I matched the cardstock color to the printed paper for the base card.

I stamped the Large Betty with Memento on a separate piece of cardstock, colored her, and cut her out.

I used the same color cardstock as the card to die-cut a background for the saying.

I stamped the saying, Thought About You Today with VersaFine.

Now to get her sent out in the mail!

Valentine's Day Card For Him

By Vicky Briggs January 19, 2026 // No comments

Vicky here today. I am using our Bella for the Valentine's Day card.

Sometimes flowers and candy are not right for that special guy's Valentine's Day card.

Our Bella looks a little dreamy-eyed.

I stamped Bella with Memento Ink and added a little coloring.

I stamped the saying with VersaFine Ink.

The saying came from our Miss Daisy polymer set, which also includes a cow.

The small Heart came from our Message Board polymer set.

I trimmed it and mounted it on black cardstock.

I had a red print paper that reminded me of a farmhouse, and mounted it on black as well.

I stamped You Rock with VersaFine Black.

I masked 'Be My Valentine' and only used the word 'Valentine'. I also used a red marker and put thin lines on the letters.
