Happy Mother's Day

Hello Stampers!  Happy Mother's Day to all of the Mother's out there!  Well, since I didn't get a Mother's Day card from either of my girls today, I will show you a card I got from a good friend!

 Thanks Alice Marie for thinking of me! 

Hope you all have had a wonderful day filled with family and fun!

Embossing folder wedding cards

Hello Stampers!  I needed a wedding card the other day, so I decided to make some using some of the retiring embossing folders and the retiring glossy cardstock.  Here's what I came up with:

 This one used the Manhattan Flower embossing folder (114517)

 This one uses the Elegant Bouquet embossing folder (115964)

 This one uses the Elegant Lines embossing folder (119277)

All of these cards used the Elegant Butterfly punch (127526) and the Bitty Butterfly punch (129406) as well as the Organza Ribbon (114319) and Pearl Basic Jewels (119247).

Wedding cards are fun to make, because they get to be so elegant, don't you think?

I will be featuring some retiring stamp sets over the next few weeks, so keep coming back!

My Digital Studio specials and a project

Hello Stampers!  Have I told you lately how much I LOVE My Digital Studio?  Today at preschool was our Mother's Day tea.  We make a photo album with all of the pictures that we have taken throughout the year.  I got to make the cover for the album, and since I had to make 13 of them, I decided My Digital Studio was my best choice.  Here is what I came up with:

  Aren't they fun?  The mom's seemed to really like them!  And it was super simple to do!  Just a variety of punches, stamps and a text box, and that was it!

And just in time for me to sing the praises of My Digital Studio, they are having a special!  For a limited time, some content and print products are 25% off!
