Splashing in puddles with Lindsay's Stamp Stuff

Another fun Thursday is here!!!  We are supposed to be getting a heatwave for the weekend so I wanted to make a fun springy card!  I chose to use the rain boots and puddle from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff's puddle fun set. I used some bright cheery basic grey papers and primas.  I paper pieced the boots and added them to the puddle.  The sentiment is from SU because what could be happier than jumping in puddles????  I finished the card with some pink pirouette ribbon and stitching.  The rest of the gals have some projects for you to check out too, so if you have a chance, pop over for a visit!  Lindsay also has a super cute freebie set on MyGrafico, click here to take a look and download!

Charisma...monochromatic
 

Want a second chance to win this set?????  Just add this badge to your blog!!!!!!  Pretty easy huh?
My second card is a bit more playful!!!  It's the cute little pirate cupcake freebie!  So it qualifies for the birthday card using a freebie challenge.  I paper pieced him top and bottom.  The papers are super sparkle so there's a lot of sparkle in real life.  I decided with all the blue it's probably be a card for a boy, so I didn't add flowers.  Instead, I embellished with some star punchies and metal brads.  I did add a little piece of ribbon but it has polka dots, they're boyish right?????

Anyway from here hop on to Rhonda's Blog to continue on in the fun.  Remember to leave a comment and you may be the random winner of this fabulous Vintage Alice set!!!!  Have fun crop, hop and shop-ing!!!!

I need chocolate!!!

Good morning!  Well after a week of rain and two playdates this week, I really need some chocolate!!!  I saw this quote on Lindsay's free Easter set and knew it was what I wanted to work with.  Did I mention it was a freebie?????  Hop on over to MyGrafico and you can instantly download this set, perfect for last minute Easter cards!!!! 
I used my favorite Parisian breeze papers, some primas and lots of pearls.  No copics though,so that was strange!  I distressed all the edges with my distressing tool and ink.  And added some yummy chocolate ribbon to finish it off! 
Lindsay and the other gals have some beauties waiting for you so pop on over to check them out!!!

Cute little ladybug...

Hi All. I have a fun little ladybug to share with you today.  She from Lindsay's stamp stuff.  Ladybugs took over this card actually.  I have the ladybug image, ladybugs on both pieces of DSP and a tiny ladybug charm!  I just think they're so cute!  I added some cherry blossoms and rhinestones too.  The sentiment is from Whimsy stamps.  This is a color combo I don't use very often but you have to do something different every once and awhile right?!?!?  I have a list full of errands for today so hopefully I can blog hop later tonight.  Be sure to check out the rest of the team!

Easter Card, quick and easy!

Hi everyone!!!  I have a quick card to share with you today for my Lindsay's Stamp Stuff post.  We just found out yesterday we'll be having out of town guests tomorrow morning!!  My stamp room doubles as our guest bedroom and welllll it looks like a tornado went through here!  I have a ton of cleaning to do, so I made this fun and easy card!
I love Lindsay's little Easter basket, so I used that along with some K & Company Easter paper, satin ribbon, a charm and pearls!  That was it!  Wondering about the paper color?????  It's mauve mist from SU.  I had an unopened pack and thought it was time to dive in!!!  The sentiment I generated on my computer.  I added some faux stitching as well.  OK that's it for that one!!!
Here's some info from Lindsay about sales, freebies and new product!!!
I am running a 30% off sale at the Lindsay's Stamp Stuff shop at MyGrafico through Sunday! All Digital stamps, papers and SVG Cricut cutting template are on sale! Remember you get your stuff instantly when you order from the MyGrafico shop!

And I am also running the same sale at the LSS shophandmade shop however I've had some trouble update all the prices, they have been upgrading the server on that site and it is sluggish. I did update the prices on all sets, new products and most expensive and popular stuff but if you stumble upon something full price that is why. Don't worry, if you order something at reqular price I will add the 30% saving to the free stamps you always get when you shop at the Lindsay's stamp Stuff Shophandmade store. Or email an order and I'll send you an adjusted invoice, whatever is easier:) I'll treat you right!

If you haven't stopped by my blog lately be sure you scroll through to grab the weekly freebies! If I can help you with anything please let me know:)
Until next month Happy crafting!
Enjoy your day:)

To my mom.......

Hi everyone!!!  Are you ready for the weekend???  I'm actually ready for tonight as we are headed out to dinner.  With Mother's Day all over blogland this week, I decided to go ahead with a Mother's Day card for my Lindsay DT card.  Now I can check that off my list nice and early!
I went with the primative bird with flower image and an old SU sentiment.  The papers are basic grey, nook and pantry.  I added some stickles to the butterfly's wings to give them a hint of sparkle.  And I used some teeny tiny brads too!  Be sure to check out the rest of the team for some fabulous designs!

Get well soon

Hi all! Well it seems like everyone is getting sick lately, so for my Lindsay Stamp Stuff project this week I decided to make a "get well" card. You can never have enough and Lindsay's new set was perfect for the occasion!!! It's called bird on a branch and it's just lovely! I used the branch image with flowers that matched my basic grey papers. Then paper pieced the little birdhouse with cute little birdies. Obviously I used my Martha Stewart punch because I think I'm addicted to it LOL!! I haven't made a card without it since I brought it home!!! The edges were made from the scrap left behind by my SU corner punch. I hung the birdhouse with some linen thread and added a charm, a few buttons and some twiny ribbon. The sentiment is a new release from Whimsy Stamps (CLICK HERE FOR THE NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP) The other girls have been crafting up a storm so be sure to check them out!!!

Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Box

Good Morning!!! Hope it's a great one so far! I'm still trying to organize my day. So much to do since we stayed put yesterday during the snow. Which was really nothing, they said we'd get 8in, we didn't even get 1!! Boy would I love that job, you can be wrong 90% of time and not get fired!!! But then when would I get to stamp???
I have a little gift box to share with you today. Normally I avoid 3-d projects as much as I can, bit this one seemed easy, so I gave it a try. I used the template from LSS. Now if you have one of those fancy cutting machines, I think it will cut it out for you. But I just printed it out,
and cut most of it with my table cutter. The 4 small angled cuts, I did with my paper snips. I then used this fun new edge punch from SU and a little sticky strip! And voila, a box! I added papers from basic grey along with SU ribbon and prima flowers. The super cute cherries are from Lindsay.(You can check out the rest of the team's work HERE.) The cherries and upper leaf are "doubled up" with another image and a dimensionsal.
I added a little heart charm as well. Need heart charms??????? Head on over to Whimsy Stamps , where they have a new line of charms and paper flowers at fabulous prices!!!

Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Valentine

WOW is this week crazy or what!! Between trying to get back into the normal routine and adding a new ballet class, I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off!!!
I did remember to make this card for the Lindsay's Stamp Stuff DT and to use a recycled item on it. The thin pink ribbon is from some wedding favors, fun and easy to recycle!! The cute little birdies are from the Love grows set. Check out the rest of the team's creation and Lindsay's blog for a freebie.
