Run, Run as Fast as You Can!

This is a quick and easy thank you card to make.  There are lots of good choices for images that fit in the circle/scallop punches.  And of course some designer paper.  Happy Stampin'!

Thoroughly Modern Designer Paper Note Card

This is the 3rd of a set that I plan on using for a stamp-a-stack.  I love the short prep time in cutting and my customers get to try out new and different products.  This stamp-a-stack will feature the embossing folders, designer papers and several punches.  Hoping to schedule during Sale-A-Bration.

Bride Specialty Paper

This is another note card.  Brayered crushed curry ink over the Bride specialty paper.  This paper is a little heavier than the other designer papers.  Love how the paper resists the ink.  The red is real red.  Thinking I might use this as part of a stamp-a-stack.

Hello There!

I love this card.  I was in the mood to use some retired ribbon and designer papers and the birds from Cheep Talk go with everything.  An aquapainter and some Kiwi Kiss ink color over the leaves nicely.

Funky Forest Swap

Better late than never, this is a swap created by my stampin' demo buddies for convention, last August.  The Funky Forest wheel (aka trendy tree wheel to me) and a sponge dauber make for easy coloring.  Add some designer paper and a texturz plate and I am good to go.

PPA19 Christmas Inspiration on MDS

I had a few free moments and wanted to create a card for the

Pals Paper Art Challenge.  Twas a little too cold to work in the basement so My Digital Studio was the perfect choice to work upstairs in the cozy den.  Happy Stampin'!

Thank You #5

Very Thankful is the Ronald McDonald House Charities stamp set.  $2 from the sale of this set goes toRonald McDonald House Charities.  I used the rock n roll technique to ink the peacock image.  That's it for Hilary's thank you notes.  Watch for some sketch entries tomorrow.

Thank You #4

More Kaleidascope designer paper, Hilary's favorite.  Really Retro (the sentiment) is retiring!  In fact there are several dormant sets on the retiring list.  Make sure you don't miss out by checking the list.

A Card for Avery

Avery is getting ready for her first semester finals, so I sent her this little card.  I used For All You Do and my stamp-a-majig, Razzleberry Lemonade designer paper and the white satin ribbon.  The wide oval punch worked wonders for this 6" x 3" card.  Happy Studying, Avery!  Love, Mom

MOJO 115

I needed a card to send a pick-me-up card to a family at church.  It has been a few weeks since they lost their loved one and I wanted them to know we are still thinking of them.  I used Flower Fancy and Thoroughly Modern designer paper.  Thanks for the great mojo sketch!

PPA18 KISS

I am planning a stamp-a-stack and want to use the Note Cards and feature the Big Shot.  I ran the note card through the Big Shot using the elegant bouquet embossing folder and cut the flower using the simple flower embosslit.  Love the Cottage Wall designer paper and Razzleberry polka-dot ribbon.  Greeting is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  I will post the other two cards later this week.  PPA's KISS Challenge was terrific inspiration for a stamp-a-stack.  Happy December!
