April Birthday Cards

Leave it to me, the maker of cards, to make cards for special birthdays at the last minute..uff!  I got them done, though and am pretty pleased with the results. I played along with a couple of challenges for crafty inspiration.

The first card was inspired by a sketch from Clean & Simple Stamping Sketch #136.  Here is the sketch:

Customer Thank You Notes

Happy Friday!  I just wanted to take a moment to share the cute little cards I made for my customers in March:

Super simple, and very cute!  These 3"x3" note cards are made using Pacific Point card stock, Good Morning Sunshine DSP (retired) and Pacific Point ink.  The stamps are from Short & Sweet and Four Frames (available through this month's Spring is Blossoming promotion).

Have a wonderful weekend!

Spring is Blossoming!

I know I have been silent for a while - vacation with limited time to be on the computer will do that!  I'm back now, and playing catch-up.  Today I'd like to share a great sneak peek promotion that Stampin' Up! has right now, along with a simple but beautiful card I made from the products available through the promo.

Through April 30, 2011 you can purchase two Sneak Peek products that will be available in the new 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog! The Four Frames stamp set and Paisley Petals Designer Series Paper are my new favorites.
