Get Well Soon Circle Die- The Stamps of Life

Hello! I’m sharing the new Get Well Circle Die that was released today… I don’t know about you, but I always try to have plenty of “Get Well” cards on hand!

I paired the Get Well Soon with Scallop Circle Dies and bandage2stamp along with some flower dies included in the Sizzix Mini Square Stand-Up Card Set.

Here’s a great tip about this die, too:) This Word Circle Die fits perfectly on the Large Flip-its Card and the Stand-Ups Card. And….. it also coordinates with the other decorative borders from all the other Word Circle Dies. You can find them HERE

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful day! Until the next time…. Happy Stamping!

Happy Anniversary Card- The Stamps of Life

Hello! Today I’m sharing a card I made for two very special people, my son and my daughter-in-law. They just celebrated their second anniversary… Time sure does fly, it seems like yesterday we were just planning their wedding!

To make my card I used Sizzix Half A2 Swirl Card as my card base. I added Sizzix Dotted Hearts and made my bow using Large Bow Dies. I love the swirls on the gatefold panel, I think it adds such elegance to your card!

Happy Anniversary is included in the die set and I personalized the year by using minidoublebanner2stamp This was a quick, easy and fun card to make and I was happy with how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by today! Until the next time… Happy Stamping!

Witch Hat and a Cat- The Stamps of Life

It’s been a crazy, busy week and I was happy to have some “me” time today in my craft room! I knew I wanted to make some cards today but just wasn’t sure what I wanted to make….

Then my son text me this picture….

This is Pippin, my grand-cat that I call my “city cat” because he lives in Boston. I actually have two grand- cats, the other is a Calico and is as cute as can be too, but she’s my “country cat.”

When I got this picture the idea came to me and I knew this would be my son’s Halloween card!

For the base of my card I turned the Party Hat die that Stephanie designed for HSN into a witch’s hat. You can find the Party Hat HERE. To create the rest of my hat, I used the following Stamps of Life stamps and dies: Slider die for my hat’s brim, Stitched Square Dies to make the buckle, cat2stamp and Quirky Uppercase Alphabet. I added a fun felt hat to my cat, added some googly eyes inside my “O’s” and altered a spider ring to hang from my card! Pretty simple, but I was happy with how it turned out and excited to mail it out:)

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day! Until the next time…. Happy Stamping!

Pudgie Elephant- The Stamps of Life

elephantpudgie 19 is the latest pudgie to join the family!

He’s a real cutie!

I think he’s just adorable!

He fits perfectly on this box made with the Handle Box Die Set…. and I just love the balloon dies with the added strings!

Goodies4Toast- The Stamps of Life

There’s ANOTHER  new partner set available today to coordinate with this month’s Stamps of Life Club Set toast2stamp and the the previously released  partner set, moretoast2stamp!

Goodies4Toast

goodies4toast  coordinates perfectly with toast2stamp stamp/die set and moretoast2stamp! It  has 19 different stamps included in the set!

Here’s a look at what I made:

To make my peanut butter and Jelly, I die cut  fun foam and added Glossy Accents to the top of the foam to give it a shiny appearance….

For this card I used Sizzix Oval Flip-its Card Set and stamped my own patterned paper with the egg and toast stamp….

And here’s a look at the inside of the card!  I popped up my toast with the egg using Adhesive Foam.

I think this is such a fun stamp set and definitely a “must have” to partner with toast2stamp… It’s so much fun!
