Flower Stamp Birthday Card Idea

Hello My Stamping Friends,

Have you ever made a card and when it was complete said to yourself or out loud “Wow that looks Fantastic”?  Well, that’s what  just did ~ LOL

Using just one stamp, a few paper punches, and embellishments and look how beautiful this card is 🙂

I recently found a box in my craft room that had alot of “old” stamping products.  I mean like maybe 10 years old.  Anyway, it was filled with lots of cardstock and ink pads (I use to love to emboss everything and I purchased every color that was available in pigment inks)

This very special Birthday Card below was made with the a Flower stamp and a Happy Birthday stamp, but i just had to use some of the old products that I found.

Card Making Is Always On The Top Of My List

Hello My Crafty Friends,

I have been busy working on some fun projects.  Of course making handmade cards has been on the top of my list, but I have been also looking at my small kitchen table wondering how I can make it more fun. We don’t sit at this table, it is actually for my cats to look out the window 🙂   I found a piece of fabric that I think I am going to somehow make a table top not a table cloth.  Anyway as soon as I figure it all out I will show you what I am talking about.

Here are some of the fun cards that I have been making ~ You can stop over at Stampin Upon The Island to find out how these cards were made.

Mixed Bunch Stamps Make Perfect Handmade Greeting Cards

Hello My Stamping Friends,

It’s summer time on the island and the beaches are getting a little more crowded, but that’s just fine with me.  It’s so much fun sitting on my beach chair and watching all the fun, laughter and smiles.  It seems like once people get to the beach all problems that you may be experiencing in your everyday life just disappear.

I have had so much fun making these Mixed Bunch cards.  Stacking these cards together they look  like (to me at least) a beautiful  tropical flower paradise.

Same idea different colors ~ how fun is this?  You have to try it! 🙂

What a great gift this would make.  Stamp a Mixed Bunch in all different colors, wrap them together with a ribbon, and you have the perfect handmade present for that special someone to enjoy.

Hope you enjoyed your visit to Stampin Upon The Island today!

Happiest Birthday Wishes Stamp Set for a Fun Handmade Birthday Card

Hello My Stamping Friends,

Today I will be making a birthday card using the Happiest Birthday Wishes clear mount stamp set.  My goal for this card is fun, colorful, and cool.  Well it’s for my 15 year old nephew, so it has to be cool ~ LOL

I just love these clear stamp sets.  They are the best for storage (you can have soooo much more and not need alot of space)  and the clean up is even so much better then using the wood mounted stamps (well that’s my opinion) and just to let you know I have a “ton” of wood mounted stamp.

Since this stamp was just a word in different fonts I took the stamp and used markers and colored directly onto the stamp in the colors that I wanted instead of using a stamp pad.   Your clean up is a snap also when you use  the spritz cleaner and stamp scrubber, your stamps look brand new 🙂
