Memories Card

 Hello Stamper. I am here to share another idea using our spiral stamp.
You could use some pictures with this.
I stamped the Spiral Side stamp twice.
Next, the Memories was stamped.
I trimmed it to fit on the card.
The edges were sponged in Ocure ink.
I used the same ink for the Design 2 stamp.
If you need a little extra to put on your card, we have plenty of elements.
With light blue ink to match the card, I used the Stipple Texture Brush.

Just A Thank You Note Card

 Hello Stampers. Today I am sharing a thank you card made with our spiral stamp.
With school starting soon, the spiral stamp would be fun to use.

I mounted a printed red and white piece of cardstock on the base card.
I stamped the Spiral stamp on cardstock.
The Just A Note and the Tulip were stamped in the center of the spiral.
I cut the saying and spiral out, and then cut a second piece the same size for the Thank You.
I glued just the left side of the 2 pieces of card stock and adhered it to the card.
I put the scrap of white card stock from the note on the top and bottom of the card.

One nice thing about the Spiral stamp is that you can make it as long as you want.

Are you ready for some football!

 Hello, Janet here with a card for the football fan in your life.

I stamped the helmet and football with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored them with colored pencils and then cut them out. Placed them on brown printed paper. I cut strips of printed grass paper and placed them evenly on white cardstock. The brown paper is placed on the green football field.  Stamped Are You Ready For Some Football on light brown cardstock  with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink. I rounded the corners. Using a soft brush, I made the sentiment look distressed. It is attached to the upper left corner of the card.

Unicorn Birthday Wishes

Hello, Timothy here sharing a Unicorn Birthday Wishes card.
For this card, I was inspired by the colors in the plaid pattern paper.
I started with a green card base. I wrapped some ribbon around the plaid
paper, created a bow and layered it on top of the card base. 
I colored the Unicorn Sweetie stamp with alcohol markers. 
To make the hair look shiny, I added crosses and dots
with a white gel pen.
I stamped the Happy Birthday Script sentiment stamp
and cut it out with some layering dies. 
I cut the larger layer from gold glitter cardstock and added
it on top of the ribbon. To finish the card, I added three enamel dots.

Have a magical day!

Need a Quick Card? Make one "like no UDDER"!

  Hi Everyone, Dalis here!
Bridgette is the perfect stamp for a quick card! She can be black and white or brown and white—and the only thing you really need to color is her little bell. I decided to go the extra mile (which for a quick card isn’t that far!) and added some stenciled clouds. The patterned paper and the texture of the corrugated piece really help Bridgette take center stage—just like she’s used to! 🐄💛
Did you notice the envelope detail? It took almost no time at all, but it’s such a sweet little touch that gives the recipient a sneak peek of what’s inside. Just a small effort for a big smile!

Funny T-Rex Dragon Card

I've always been fascinated by dinosaurs, and it's amazing we can theorize so much about their lives, given fossils and such.  Now, do we know for sure that a T-rex's arms were relatively short?  Yes, BUT--now hear me out--what if it had tentacle fingers or something that didn't survive the fossil record, and overall its arms were proportionally the same as its legs? Yikes!
When I saw the Dragon with Fire stamp, I immediately noticed its little arms and just had to pair it with the I'd Hug You sentiment.  LOL.  Too cute.  I stamped Grass Set of 2 with Catherine Pooler ink.  I used CP inks for the colorful sky as well. A strip of washi finished off the ground.

Let's Misbehave!

Salutations, Timothy here today to see who's ready to Misbehave!

I started with a wheat color card base, which I also used as mat layers 
for the 2 inch pattern paper squares. 
I stamped the Newt's Initials stamp on the blue-green layer, using the 
same color ink for a tone on tone look.
I stamped the In The Mood To Misbehave stamp
and cut out each line in the sentiment to
show off more of the background.
I stamped and colored the Newt Scamander image and added him
to the bottom of my card.
Lastly, as usual, I added a few enamel dots to finish the card.

Not Your Average Get Well Card

 Hi Everyone, Dalis here!

At my age, having a stash of Get Well Soon cards is less of a choice and more of a necessity. But let’s be honest—just because it’s a get-well card doesn’t mean it has to be boring!

I had so much fun creating this one with the adorable egg stamps from Crackerbox Stamps—seriously, they stamp like a dream! Ironically, I was aiming for a slightly imperfect, offset look… and of course, they all came out perfectly aligned (isn’t that always the way?).

The chicken? Absolutely essential. As soon as I read the sentiment, I instantly thought of good ol’ chicken soup for the soul. Instead of my usual go-to patterned paper, I challenged myself with a new color palette and created my own background using the eggs. No patterned paper in sight—and I loved every second of it!

Supply List:

Additional Supplies:
Paint brush (for splattering), inks, alcohol markers, white gel pen, paintbrush, and watercolor pencils

Summer Fairy Wishes

Hello, everyone!  Toni here and today's card commemorates summer--dandelion wishes, glorious sunsets (possibly sunrises but that's too early for me), and fireflies (aka fairies).
I used an oval mask along with Catherine Pooler inks to create a vibrant spotlight on the card front. Just imagine how many other color combos I could have used!  

Next, I stamped the Fairy Blowing StarsDandelion & Fluff Set of 2, and Grass Set of 2 with Versafine Clair Nocturne.  I had used my MISTI so I could repeat stamp if needed, but with these red rubber stamps, I was good to go.  I stamped the Make a Wish sentiment last.

I particularly love the parts of the silhouette that extend beyond the edges of the sponged spotlight, don't you?

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a great rest of your day!

Hello Greeting Card

 Hello, Janet here with a card that could be used for any occasion for anyone.
Using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, I stamped two feathers on scrap paper, colored them, and cut them out. Next, using the Royal Texture Stipple Brush and Memento Expresso Truffle Ink, I added color to a piece of white cardstock. I attached the feathers, tied two pieces of brown string around them, and inserted 3 brown brads.  Hello is stamped in the lower left corner in VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink. On a larger layer of white cardstock,  I stamped the feathers randomly and colored them lightly. I layered that on brown paper and onto the card. The smaller top layer is then attached.

The Cows Are at It Again!

 Hi y'all, Dalis here! 
Bernice is back—and she’s just as sassy as ever. With her bold attitude and snarky comebacks, she’s the perfect bovine to help you grab the day by the horns. This card is all about embracing that cheeky humor that makes life a little more fun.

I’ll be honest—I’m a snarky-at-heart kind of person. If someone handed me a card like this, I’d be rolling with laughter… probably down a grassy hill—or more realistically, down the stairs! Bernice knows how to make an entrance, and this card is no exception.

Cow 2 Bernice
Amazing Things
Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Doilies, stickers, ephemera, diecuts and pattern paper
