BE A FRUITLOOP

I created a fun fold card to feature this adorable stamp. What a fun stamp to color! I used my beloved Polychromos for the coloring on this one after stamping with Versafine Clair Ink.

I GOT THIS FOR YOU

Oh My Gosh! I LOVE this stamp! As a cat owner, I totally appreciate the humor here. I stamped it with Versafine Clair Ink and added some matting and whimsical background papers, along with a couple of enamel elements, to create this fun card!

GNOMIES FOREVER, SET OF 11

This super fun and trendy stamp set is sure to create lots of smiles with it's set of 11 stamps (which includes six different sentiments and five adorable gnomes). I had so much fun coloring in these cute lil guys! I used my Brother Scan-N-Cut to do my fussy-cutting for me and added them to a fun background paper. I popped up a couple of the guys for a little more dimension.

A LITTLE BIT OF MARILYN
Paired with Marilyn (not a new stamp)

This is such a great sentiment! And, of course, I just HAD to pair it up with the Marilyn stamp. The bold red background totally complements the lightly colored image. And what would a Marilyn card be without "diamonds"?

CIRCULAR VINES
Paired with Enjoy Every Moment (not a new stamp)

I love the elegant look you can create with this beautiful background stamp. I began by creating a gorgeous shimmery background with Harvest Sunset Shimmering Bliss. I then stamped and embossed the background stamp and sentiment. The sentiment was die cut with a shadow die.

MAD MOD LACE
Paired with Simple Sentiments 2A (not new)

Don't you just love this background? I enjoyed coloring this with my colored pencils. I didn't want to take away from this beautiful design, so I added a simple, popped up sentiment.
