Hello friends! I have a NEW Happy Birthday Word Die to share with you today… The best part is it’s a Black Friday sale item!!!!

Happy Birthday 2018 Word Die Set has a beautiful font and it’s so versatile!

I absolutely love the font and the size of the Word Die! I paired Happy Birthday with the Dotted Background Die Set as my card-base and layered with Dotted Ovals and stamps4cupcaketriplit with matching dies. I added mini flowers and a candle to finish off my card.

Happy New Year Word Die- The Stamps of Life

Can you believe it’s almost time to say goodbye to 2018? I have to say 2018 hasn’t been the best year for me… Seven days into it I fell and broke my elbow in several places. After surgery and repairing it with plates and screws, lots of pain, a delayed union of the bones and many hours of physical therapy it’s finally back to a new “normal” for me. With that being said, I’m more than happy to ring in the new year, and to make and send out lots of New Year’s cards!

Happy New Year2018 Die Set was just released at The Stamps of Life and it’s a great die set with a beautiful font! I absolutely love it!!!!

See why I love the font so much? I paired Happy New Year with the also newly released Champagne Glass Dies and an older die set, Quirky Number Dies. This was quick, easy and fun to make! I’ll be making different variations of this card and sending them out to family and friends to celebrate the new year! The card-stock and patterned papers I used are also from The Stamps of Life:)

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

Envelope Liner Die Set- The Stamps of Life

Hello! I’m here today to share with you the new Envelope Liner Die Set that was released this week. It fits A2 sized envelopes and you have different options of how you wish to line your envelope… plain, dots, stars or squares.

I was so excited when this die set was released because I love to decorate my envelopes:)

Here, I wanted to personalize my envelope to coordinate with the “Great Day” card I was sending my nieces and nephew about a day we spent together at the beach. I just photocopied my photograph on copy paper and die cut it. You could coordinate any envelope liner with a photo to match the occasion of the card you’re sending! What a great surprise to the recipient opening it!

Here, I “dropped in” the dot die to create the dotted pattern and stamped snowflakes to coordinate with my Christmas card.

Lastly, I decorated this liner with the star dies in the set and added the “Sparkle” word die.

The possibilities are endless and so much fun! For more great ideas visit the Gallery

In addition to the Envelope Liner Die Set, all other stamps, inks, papers and dies I used can be found at The Stamps of Life.

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

New Bear Pudgie- The Stamps of Life

A new Bear Pudgie has joined the family of pudgies at The Stamps of Life! One of the new releases today is bearpudgie27 and he’s a cutie!

A cutie, right? The Pudgie fits perfectly on this stitched tag and I love this sentiment included with the pudgie!

This word die is also included in the set! After creating my sky and adding the sentiment, I paired my Pudgie with Christmastree2stamp die and a bird from hippo2stamp. I added some hearts and then stamped my birds. Lastly, I used border dies to make my hills of grass and was finished. It’s a fun card to send to someone needing a little extra TLC or just a hug:)

Lastly, I used Sizzix Card, Rounded Corners with Circle Drop-ins as my card-base and trimmed around my Pudgie to give the appearance of him “holding on” to the thank you.

Thanks for stopping by today! Be sure to stop back to see the other new releases! Have a wonderful day and until the next time…. Happy Stamping!

Llama2Stamp- The Stamps of Life

Happy November 1st! The first of the month means new releases at The Stamps of Life. llama2stamp is this month’s Club Set! It’s so cute and it comes with some great sentiments!

I love this llama and sentiment! In addition to the Club Set, I also used Border Dies to die cut my grass and Mini Flower Dies . I love how felt adds different texture to cards, and how all of TSOL felt, papers and ink all coordinate together perfectly:)

This time, I used Sizzix Half A2 Card as my base with the border die once again and added a flower. Don’t you love the “No PROBLLAMA” die?

And here’s a look at the inside. XOXO is a die that was previously released in the December 2017 Card Kit.

And one more…

It was so much fun creating this Shadow Box scene…. The llama is the perfect size to fit in the shadow box.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look at this month’s Club Set! Until the next time… Happy Stamping!
