My Heart

 Here's today's card:


My card base is Night of Navy. I embossed a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock with the Pressed Flowers EF. I cut a circle using a circle from the Stylish Shapes dies. The heart is from the Heart Shaped dies and I cut it from Silver Foil. I added the flower die cuts from the same set and added a few Rhinestones. The sentiment is from the Heart Shaped stamp set and cut with one of the dies.

I'm playing along with The Paper Players color challenge this week.


Happy Stamping!

Just a Hello

 Today's card features puppy #3 (of 4) from Unity's Puppy Paws which is included in the December 2025 KOM, Peace, Paws & Possibility.


I started with that Floral Delight DSP.  I do like it, I think. It's just so much yellow. lol! I added a Peach Pie card base. I thought the fur baby looked just fine surrounded by the florals with that piece of yellow gingham running through it. I colored the pup using Crumb Cake Blends. The sentiment is from the same set. I just fussy cut it and added a Peach Pie strip behind it. 

That's it for me today. I hope everyone is having a great week!

Happy Stamping!

You Are Fabulous

 You know how some cards just come together quickly and easily and others not so much?! Well, today's card came together quickly and easily and made me happy.


The card base is Pecan Pie. I used the light side of the two toned cardstock in Pecan Pie and embossed it with an older (2022) Spellbinders EF. Then I used a sanding block on the embossing. The DSP strip is from Made with Love and I cut the heart using the Endless Love dies. The sentiment is from In My Heart. I just fussy cut around it. I added a few red Delightful Decorative Dots aka Red Hots. 😂 They seriously look like Red Hots that I haven't had in forever. We used to use them to decorate our Christmas sugar cookies. 

 I have two challenges I'm joining for this card. It's Word Week #805 at Just Us Girls and they are looking for Encouragement


Can You Handle the Pressure Anything Goes with a Twist of Friendship.

You're All Heart

 Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend. Mine was fine other than our washing machine is down for the count and the hubs and YouTube are trying to fix it...a part is ordered but won't be here for a few days. I'm very thankful for my mom! Yep! Mom to the rescue. I was able to do laundry at her house on Saturday. 

On to today's card!


I used the CASE-ing Tuesday Sketch #546.


My card base is Pecan Pie. I used a few pieces of the Floral Delight DSP. The Yellow DSP. It's really yellow. Like, there's ALOT of yellow in the DSP. I was determined to use it. Thankfully the "B" side had this brown textured paper so I used it as the base. The ivy heart and the yellow flower are from the Heart Shaped dies (last year's SALE-A-BRATION). The sentiment is from Modern Heart which is from a few years back. I don't have the date on it which is odd. I usually do. I added a few sparkle dots and a linen thread bow. 

I might have a few more cards to share this week using that yellow DSP. 😅 

We had fun with Paisley and Weston on Friday! 



Happy Stamping!

LOVE

 Each year I choose a word. Just one word. I've been doing this for probably 10 years. This year my one word is: LOVE. I chose 1 John 4:7-8 as verses to accompany my one word but there are so many great verses on love that I may just have a collection of them! All this to introduce today's card! lol!


Another fun card using the Endless Love bundle and Made with Love DSP! My first one I shared on Monday here. This was the make-n-take I shared Saturday with my monthly crafting group. They did an amazing job making their cards. They are so good and so kind as I bumbled through a few of the instructions. All of them are talented crafters.

My inspiration for this card came directly from the new SU! mini catalog on page 30. My card base is Flirty Flamingo. I added another layer of Flirty Flamingo that I embossed with the Hearts of Love EF. Threading the ribbon through the heart is a bit of a challenge but I like the results. I stamped the LOVE but the font is the same as the Mini Alphabet dies and I'm excited to use those also. 

If you're interested in learning more about having a word for the year I recommend reading, My One Word  by Mike Ashcraft and Rachel Olsen.

Happy Birthday

 I needed a birthday card for one of the little boys at our church. I used another one of the cute pups from Unity's December 2025 KOM, Peace, Paws & Possiblity.


I used strips of paper from NND's A Dog's Life and adhered them to a Real Red card base. The strips are 1/2" x 3-3/4". I used the Deckled Circles dies and the sentiment is from Simply Said. 

Very easy but I think it's completely appropriate for a youngster! I'm sure I'll be sharing the other two pups from the kit in the near future! 😉 So cute and so fun!

Happy Stamping!

Hugs & Kisses

Today's card features an adorable Doxie from Unity's December '25 Kit of the Month, Peace, Paws & Possibility.  She's one of four adorable pups in the set. 


Sadly, the photography is not good. Sorry. I used some paper from NND's Love & Woofs and A Dog's Life. The card base is Basic Gray. I stamped the sentiments from SU!'s Endless love in Real Red onto Gray Granite cardstock. The circles were cut using the Deckled Circles dies.

Color Hues Challenge #124 is looking for gray and red.


So, there you have it! Hope your week is going well!

Happy Stamping!
