Love, sweet LOVE! :)

Now, THIS is a fun card. :D There are days when I just don't WANNA stamp!!!! When that happens, I'm SO grateful for my PUNCHES (and BIG SHOT, too!)!!!

This is the LAST DAY to purchase the LOVE YOU MUCH BUNDLE!!!!!! Please GO HERE to place your online order NOW!!!!! Click on the SHOP NOW button at the top, then on SPECIALS!

This was a demo's group challenge a few weeks ago: Use Pink Pirouette, Tempting Turquoise, Tangerine Tango, and Riding Hood Red in a project. WELL. I just couldn't come up with something "sweet" or "simple" with those colors; they scream PLAYTIME to me. :)

So I took my Heart to Heart punch (from the bundle), and punched out the three different-sized hearts from all the colors of card stock at least twice. Then I just started sticking them down randomly all over the Whisper White front (we were allowed to add any neutrals we wanted).

Next came the medallion stamp from the LOVE YOU MUCH stamp set (from the bundle), and punched and layered.

SUPER simple, hardly any stamping, and I used a LOT of color with little effort!

I really hope to see that you've placed YOUR order for the bundle - and saved TWENTY PERCENT on it!!!!!! And then SHOW ME WHAT YOU'RE STAMPIN'!

Good afternoon!


This card is from our FANCY FOLDS class this month; it was a really fun class to do, and we used the LOVE YOU MUCH bundle on several of the cards.

Now, then. :) On to the details! This is knowns as a SWING or FLIP card; it takes some special cutting to do the swing window, but it's really cute. It's been around a while, but sometimes we concentrate on the new things for so long, we don't KNOW the old stuff! :D

We stamped on Pink Pirouette (IN COLOR) card stock with Pretty in Pink ink; the stamp is from the LOVE YOU MUCH stamp set. The DSP is the CANDY LANE DSP in the bundle; we used one side on the front of the swing window, and the other side on the back.

We stamped the medallion from LOVE YOU MUCH, and punched out the center with a 1" circle punch. Next, we colored in the heart with a Pretty in Pink Stampin' Write Marker, and matted that onto a 1-1/4" Chocolate Chip circle punch, which matted onto a 1-3/8" Whisper White circle punch. All of that went onto a Pretty in Pink scallop circle punch; we put a dimensional on back, and centered it onto the front panel - the DSP is matted with Chocolate Chip.

For the inside panel, we used the scallop edge punch on the DSP, and colored the stamp from LOVE YOU MUCH with Stampin' Write Markers - Chocolate Chip, Pink Passion, and Green Galore. Then we matted that with Chocolate Chip.

Isn't it CUTE??? So. What are YOU stamping?? And I hope you'll take advantage of that great special going on - ORDER NOW, so you don't miss out!!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

How ARE you???? What are you stamping these days???? This is what I stamped with the MOPS group on Monday. It was their Valentine's party, so we did Valentine's stuff. :)

The milk carton is a pattern that Stampin' Up! demonstrators can get from SU!, on their demo-only side of the website. We stamped it with the level 3 hostess stamp set, TIME WELL SPENT, and did the tag with TAGGER'S DOZEN. Inside, we put homemade baby-powder-scented bath salts.

The M&M bag was really easy. Used the So Swirly jumbo wheel and ticket corner punch.

The Valentine's card? The designer paper is from the Berry Bliss collection; the "love" is from WONDERFUL WORDS. The "love" parts are made using the corner rounder.

Simple, fun, gave us lots of time for talking and laughing, and I think everyone had a good time. :)

Now, then. As of this writing, we're only 10 hits away from 10,000!!!! HURRAY! That will mean another blog candy announcement on Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Be on the lookout!

Now, I know it's Valentine's Day - but go stamp a card for your loved one, or someone who might not receive a card! Take the time to stamp something!! :) Happy Valentine's Day!
