Free St. Patrick Digital Stamps

Posted on March 15, 2017 by Mama

St. Patrick’s Day is only a few days away and I have been crafting some cute Irish inspired cards for just the occasion. Unfortunately as I started creating with greens and gold, I quickly discovered that I didn’t have a single St. Patty appropriate stamp or sticker to my name. So with necessity being the mother of invention and all that, I decided to create my own set of digital circle stamps. . . and “lucky” for you (yes, that’s a St. Patty’s pun), I’m sharing my whole sheet of digis with my readers. The pdf file includes eight sayings that should fit in a 1.75 or 2 inch circle punch. You can also get creative with them in other ways, so feel free to download and craft away your day. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

When a Non-Plan Comes Together

Posted on March 5, 2017March 4, 2017 by Mama

Yes, I’ve been creative. Yesterday as I finished the sketch challenge card, I got inspired. While I didn’t really care for the design of the challenge card, I did like aspects of it and the colors reminded me of another card I started (but never completed) a couple of weeks ago for a different challenge site.

As I looked at all the papers in my Family Ties paper pad by Pebbles, I noticed that they coordinated with a large stamp I had already colored. In fact, as I started assembling this new design, I was amazed at how cohesive everything looked. I love it when a non-plan comes together! The polka dot paper did come from a different paper collection, but other than that I used my Family Ties. With the addition of some green brads and orange ribbon, this card was complete. . . and I like it better than the inspiration.

Hello Spring from Some Bunny

Posted on March 4, 2017 by Mama

Spring keeps trying to creep into our days here in the Midwest, and my latest Mojo Monday card reflects those feelings. From the cute little bunny and fresh colored paper, everything about this card screams “Hello Spring.”

While I wasn’t crazy about this week’s Mojo Monday sketch, I decided to play along because I had just created the bunny holding an umbrella stamp with my newest Stampendous set from Hobby Lobby. I love this cute little stamp set that lets me mix and match various animals, clothes and accessories. It’s super cute! Anyway, the bunny was the perfect size for this card and the rest just fell in place.

All the decorative paper is from The Family Ties 6×6 paper stack from Pebbles, which was 40 percent off at JoAnn’s this week. Score! I inked all the edges and added some Glimmer Mist to the background for some interest. With the addition of a heart brad and a touch of Stickles on the bunny nose and frog eyes, my card was complete.
