Dear Friend Release
May 18, 2023
Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of project using the fabulous, new Dear Friend Release with Simon Says Stamp. You can check out all of the new products HERE!
My first project features the Hey Girl die set. I adhered some strips of solid colored cardstock on a Champagne Glitter cardbase.
For my next card I used the Folk Art Floral Medallion Hot Foil Plate. This was the first time trying the glossy white cardstock for foiling, and I will NEVER be the same. It is pure magic! I used gold foil for both the medallion and the sentiment, which is from the new Elegantly Modern Greetings set.
I stripped it up on this one as well, also using the fun Champagne Glitter cardstock for the cardbase.
I have a walk-through video of the new Dear Friend Release HERE if you’d like to check it out!
Thanks so much for stopping by!

May 10, 2023Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog featuring the Yarn Love stamp and die set. I don’t know much about knitting and crocheting, but this sentiment made me chuckle.

Pop-Up Pal Grad

New Release with Erin Lee Creative
May 7, 2023Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects using some of the new release with Erin Lee Creative.
My first card uses the Wonky Rainbow Die with some yummy felt. I’ve had this tub of felt in my basement for years and thought the rainbow would look so cool using it. I added a sentiment from Sunshine Sentiments. The card below features the Jeep Die with the Teen Slang Sentiment. I couldn’t resist adding the Panda and Giraffe to the Jeep for fun. My kids are saying “Bruh” all the time these days so this made them smile!
Check out the other new fun products Erin Lee has in her new release HERE! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Box of Cards
May 1, 2023Hi there! Today I’m sharing a little reel over on Instagram of a cute little box of cards I like to put together for friends.
I always refer to this handy tutorial on Jennifer McGuire’s blog for how to put the box together(she’s a genius). I use whatever 12 x 12″ pattern paper I have on hand. This time I used some pretty paper by Pinkfresh Studio. I love to personalize the back of my cards with a stamp that I got from Bossy Joscie. I love to include some envelopes. This time I had some cute ones by Honey Bee Stamps. All of the cards in this box were using Concord & 9th products, but usually I just throw in whatever cards I have on hand. This is a great way to use up those cards that pile up and a cute, little gift for birthdays, hostess gifts or teacher, etc.
