Hi All, I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day and a great Monday. We had a nice and relaxing weekend (well except for my trip to Urgent Care to have my wedding rings cut off my swollen finger, other than that it was nice) and a very enjoyable Mother's Day. Today's video is just some playing around with ink and stamps that made for a simple yet fun card. I'm really getting into using the color grey and mixing it with different colors. Hope you enjoy today's video. Watch Below | Watch on You Tube InLinkz.com May’s Hostess Code  9E4HEV3E Use this code when ordering and be enter to win free Stampin’ Up! products....

Hi Everyone, I was playing around with the Tape It stamp set . I had it on my desk to use with my Project Life layout from Monday but ended up not using it and was inspired to make a card. That stamp set, with 3 different ink colors, and the Itty Bitty Banners stamp and die set makes for a cute and simple card. These metal buttons from the occasions catalog are one of my favorite embellishments in my collection. They work great for simple cards with pastel colors to more masculine cards with darker richer colors.

Happy Tuesday everyone Today I wanted to share with you one of the cards I made for Mother's Day this year. This one is going to my Mom-in-law.  The base of the card is made with Very Vanilla Cardstock (A2 size). I picked two patterns from the Afternoon Picnic DSP (retiring at the end of May) and put them together to make a layer of 4"x-5-1/4". For my sentiment I stamped out "Happy Mother's Day" from the My Mother stamp set and die cut it using the Deco Labels dies. Of course I needed to add some seam binding as well (have I mentioned I love seam binding? hehe). Thanks for stopping by today. InLinkz.com Check out the Occasions Catalog.

Today I want to share a video on how I put together one side of a 2 page layout of Ethan's 12th birthday. I used to do Project Life on a weekly basis, but now I only do it on special occasions. It's so much easier and I can keep up with it better if I'm not weeks and weeks behind. I have about two more special events to do and then I'll be caught up to April. Mostly, I stick to a one page layout for each event and, if I have a lot of pictures, I'll either add an insert or, if the timing is right in the album, I'll do a two page spread.
