You're The Coolest

I thought it would be fun to create a card from each of the TOP Inky Inspiration Sketches that Crystal Minkler puts out in her Tawny Owl Paperie | Inky Inspiration group. I've used her sketches often but haven't started at the beginning and worked my through them all.

Today I have used Sketch 12~

I used the Sunny Studios Passionate Penguins stamp set and some of their fun paper, Rainbow Bright for my card. Penguins are one of January's Use Your Stash prompts and the hearts on the paper work for Challenge #2 in my group! Love when it works out for more than one thing!

I didn't know how I'd like this sketch but after seeing the card put together I really like the sketch and hope to use it again!!

Have a cool day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Happy Mail

Using my stash today! I pulled out a stamp set that I've had for years and I don't know if I've ever used it! The stamp set is Happy Mail from SugarPea Designs, which I don't think is in business anymore. I think it was released in 2015. That's a long time to sit in my stash uninked!

Hubby wanted to see this stamp set that was 10 years old and we giggled that I kept it so long because "I knew" the postage collage would be a "thing". It does work perfectly with the postage collage die and stamps.

I had so much fun with the first card that I decided to make one more with the set before putting it away. I thought it would be perfect for the Mojo Monday Sketch #523 (used with permission) which is my Challenge #1 in my Facebook group.

Have a super day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Snow Glad We're Friends

A friend recently gifted me the Penguin Playmates 12x12 Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up. I just had to use this cute paper to make her a thank you card.

She really loves penguins so I just *had* to use the Jaded Blossom Gnome Friends: Penguin Die for a sweet penguin on the card.  The layout is one I found on Pinterest using this cute paper.

Have a wonderful day!! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Wedding Cards Part 1

Today I'm sharing several wedding cards that I created. Several were for friends/family for my daughter's wedding so I'm posting this after her wedding so she doesn't see any of them ahead of time. I will have a part 2 as I just kept creating and didn't want this post to be too long.

The first one uses the March 2024 SheetLoad of Cards sketch!

My next card uses the October 2024 SheetLoad of Cards sketch!

Next I used the Happily Ever After die from Simon Says Stamp for my sentiment/focal point. I stamped a second sentiment on the inside. 

My next card uses a sketch I saved from a blog challenge that is no longer active.

The Wedded Bliss stamp set from Sunny Studio is just adorable!
