Outdoor Barbecue Birthday



Hello Hivers, 

This is the card I made for my husbands birthday yesterday.  He loves to grill, all year round.  When I seen this stamp set in the New 2020 Mini Catalog I knew I was going to use it for him.  I fussy cut all the food items and the grill after coloring them with my Watercolor Pencils.  I love how fun this stamp set is.  

The inside of the card, seen below, was stamped with sentiments from Sending You Thoughts (SAB) and So Sentimental stamp sets.  The Yummilicious! sentiment was added because I included 5 different gift cards to restaurants for him to eat for lunch.  He can choose to spread them out or use them all in the same week....either way, he has a week of lunches ready to go.





As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Wrapped In Plaid Gift Box



Hello Hivers, 

Let me start this post with a HUGE shout out to my wonderful husband.  


HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY LOVE!!!

Today I am sharing a last minute gift box my son asked me to make.  I used the Christmas Gleaming stamp set for the tag.  The ribbon is retired but goes so well with this project.  I just love it.

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

All Dressed Up Purse





Hello Hivers, 

I couldn't wait to make one of these cute little purses using the All Dressed Up dies set.  I paired it with the Wrapped In Plaid SDSP for a little shine.  I stamped a couple of the images from the Dressed To Impress stamp set and added Gold Foil accents.  I even decorated the back of the purse.  You can see images of the back and the front pocket items below.  

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Timeless Tropical Birthday






MERRY CHRISTMAS!





Hello Hivers,

Happy Birthmas, Lynn!

I've been having so much fun using the new products.  I can't wait until January 3rd, when you will be able to purchase from the new 2020 Mini Catalog.  I have even used one of the FREE Sale-A-Bration items.  Can you spot it?  

Below, I've given you a look at the inside of the card.

Beautifully Braided Ombre Friendship




Hello Hivers, 

Wowzers!  Isn't this card just gorgeous?!  I love it.  I sponged a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Ombre technique.  I have had this paper on my desk for a few weeks trying to decide what to do with it.  When I seen the Beautifully Braided stamp set, I knew right away that it was a match.  I am working on keeping my cards simple.  I think I achieved it here.  What do you think?  Leave me a comment and let me know your thoughts.

So Sentimental Healing Hugs





Hello Hivers, 

I am in love with all of the new products in the 2020 Mini Catalog.  I combined items from several different suites and they work beautifully together.  The picture doesn't show it, but there is sparkle, from the Wink of Stella, all over the card.  
I am sending this creation to Dawn G.  She is not feeling her best and I just want her to know my family and I are praying for her. We love you Dawn.

Brightly Gleaming Diamond Card



Hello Hivers, 

This is the last of my Christmas card designs.  It is similar to some of the others but they all have a little something different.  I can't wait to see what they pair the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper with next holiday season.  Even if it is a stand alone item, it will be great.

Brightly Gleaming CASE



Hello Hivers, 

Yet another Christmas card using the Brightly Gleaming Suite.  If you can't tell by now, I love this suite of products.  This card was CASE'd from Dawn G.  I, of course, changed a few things to make it my own.  The DSP really does all the work on this card.  Well, that and the wonderful Hammered Metal 3D Embossing Folder.  I just love it.  

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today.

Brightly Gleaming Christmas Cards



Hello Hivers, 

This is the cad design that I finally settled on for most of my Christmas cards this year.  I seen a similar card on Pinterest.  The Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper is so gorgeous. I will hate to see it go in January....Oh, wait!  It is one of the products that will be returning next holiday season.   Whew!  That is good to know, right?  So, if you missed out on getting this paper, no worries.  You can pick some up next year.

God's Peace For Christmas



Hello Hivers, 

This is one of the Christmas cards that I made this season.  I sent this out to a select few.  When I seen the God's Peace stamp set I knew that I would be doing the stained glass technique.  I stamped my image on a Window Sheet using StazOn and colored with my Stampin' Blends on the back side.  I adhered the image to some Glimmer Paper using Glue Dots and cut it out.  I think the result is wonderful.  I love how the Subtles Embossing Folder looks on the Silver Foil Sheet.  


Here's a close-up of the focal image.
