Happy St. Patty’s Day!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! How did you celebrate? This was the first year that my kids didn’t make any leprechaun traps–so no shenanigans occurred in our home. I’m not sure if it’s that we had too busy of a week and it got overlooked (on the kids part) or if we’ve finally hit that age where they no longer need it. Over the years, I’ve posted several ideas–from pranks to treats–on how to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with kids.
Make a Wish Card
Today’s card is one I made with the Step Right Up Special going on through the end of this month.
Basketball Thank You Card
It’s the end of the basketball season for my daughter. It was her first time playing and her coach was AWESOME. He’s actually the dad of one of her friends and plays basketball himself. He made sure the girls were having fun as well as learning the rules of the game.
Stamp & Scrapbook Expo Make & Takes
The last several days have been quite busy for me! The Stamp & Scrapbook Expo kicked off it’s 2018 season in Pleasanton and I hosted a Close To My Heart booth! The Expo itself was Friday and Saturday with setup on Thursday (in the pouring rain, I might add!)
Sunshine in My Pocket Card
Today, I thought I’d share one more card created with Close To My Heart’s Stamp of the Month, Sunny Thoughts. It’s the final 2 days that you can grab this set–and you should!
Whale Star Card
Today’s card strays from the standard square or rectangle shape of most cards. This card makes a spectacular star shape and is definitely a card that you’d want to hand deliver!
Sunny Thoughts Thank You Card
Today’s card showcases the February Stamp of the Month, Sunny Thoughts. This stamp set is AWESOME!
Hoppy Easter Card
If you enjoy sending Easter wishes to friends and family, now is the time to start thinking about making those handmade cards! Today’s card is a perfect Easter Card–it’s one I received in my swap from Janice Hodgkin.
You Octopi My Heart Card
I am in love with today’s card. This is one of the cards you can create with leftover supplies from Close To My Heart’s Make Waves Scrapbooking Kit. I love the design, the colors and especially the cute Make Waves Sequins!
My Favorite Valentine’s Day Card Message!
Happy Valentine’s Day! Today I thought I would share this simple design for a card that uses my new favorite sentiment–‘From the Heart.’ Not only is the message endearing, but the font of the sentiment is quite lovely, too!
Love You More Than Cupcakes Card
Today’s card is one I received from Robin Charvet. This would make another great card design. Plus, the colors are very striking. I love how she pulled out the Peacock color from the Gimme Some Sugar Patterned Paper. Plus, she used Bashful–CTMH’s Color of the Year!
Mermaid for Me Card
With it being just a couple of days until Valentine’s Day, I thought I would share a card idea each day giving you a little inspiration on a style of card you could create for your loved one (that is, if you still are in need of one!)
