Strawberry Card--Lindsay's Stamp Stuff

Whew! I'm back again! I've been one busy gal unpacking boxes and trying to get our new home up and running. Not to mention keeping my 6 and half month old little boy happy. We love our new home, especially my new craft room (which hasn't seen much action yet).

Anyways, I'm back just in time for a great sale! Lindsay is having a Spring Sale!

  

Everything at Lindsay’s Stamp Stuff is 30% off Now through Saturday!

Speaking of Spring, I'm in the spring mood right now, I thought I'd drag out an oldie but a goodie of Lindsay's. I LOVE strawberries and I adore this digi stamp with it's cute little white blooms. I had a lot of fun with this card. I used a sketch from CardPatterns. I also used this adorable strawberry paper from CosmoCricket. I got this paper pack just for this cute paper. The ribbon is just some from my stash and then I added this cute little button to the middle (see below).

Here is a close up of the little button.



Lastly, I added some Lumiere paint from Stampin' Up to the petals of the flowers. They reminded me of some tiny white flowers (or weeds) that I used to pick in my yard when I was little. The petals were shiny, just like these.

I've been gone so long, I haven't had a chance to show you all of Lindsay's new sets!! Check these out!

These sets are all regularly about $5.00 each, but they are on sale for $3.50! 

Don't forget about the spring sale! Hop on over to Lindsay's to grab a digi freebie and see a video!

You Make My Heart Soar....

 I've been trying to decide what to do for my husband's Valentine's card for a while now, I finally just decided on this simple design. At first, the balloon looked a little boring on a plain kraft paper background, so I used my white marker to create clouds! I love the simple look.

I used the hot air balloon svg from the Up Up and Away Clipart/SVG set from Lindsay. It was very simple to cut and assemble!

A Stylish Card for a Stylish Girl

It's Thusday again! Time for a Lindsay project! Once again, I'm sorry I haven't been posting as often, but to be honest, there's a reason for that. LOL. I am having to share my craft room with my newest little one. His crib is in there and it is hard to find time to get in there while he's not sleeping. It wouldn't be a big deal, but he is such a light sleeper!

However, I did find time to whip up a couple of quick cards this week. This one was a birthday card for my SIL. She is a very fashion-forward girl. So on the inside I put "to a girl with style". I love the earth tones of this one!

You can get this great digi and the rest of the Posh & Trendy stamps here.

I used the card sketch from Clean & Simple.

This card is a re-make. I did one just like it a year or so ago when Lindsay first released this stamp. At that time, I didn't have copics. I decided to re-create it with brighter and bolder colors and I love the result! This card is an inspirational/graduation card. You can get the stamp here for just $1.00!!

One more thing before you go, Lindsay's Stamp Stuff store has everything 30% off Thursday-Sunday!

I used my Martha Stewart Punch on the bottom, then finished it off with a little bit of orange distress ink from Tim Holtz! Whew.

Cheap & Easy Holiday Gifts! + SVG Freebie!

Hello everyone! This week Lindsay's DT girls are showcasing different ways to package holiday food items. I chose to package Hershey kisses and Wintergreen Lifesavers. I put them in a Starbucks Frap bottle. I removed the label and decorated it with Lindsay's houndstooth cranberry paper. I also used one of Lindsay's new sets called Winterwear to create the digi stamp on the front. The top has a digi from last year's design.

The set includes 21 cute digital stamps to decorate your winter cards and scrapbook projects. All the stamps are black and white but they are easy to recolor however you like! The set includes mittens, hats, sweaters and scarfs in patterns, solids and outlines (great for paper piecing!), 3 sentiment frames perfect for scrapbooking and cardmaking and a cute snowman you can dress up of leave as is! That is 21 stamps for only $4.50!

Here is a little project that my mom had me work on. She is hosting a ladies Christmas party on Monday night and wanted to create some cheap and easy party favors. So she bought several of these cute little candles at Walmart on sale for $1.00 each. She wanted me to help her spruce them up a bit. So I wrapped them in cute christmas paper and tied a ribbon around them. Then I used a digi stamp from Lindsay's Christmas Cupcakes set to put on the top.

I made my own business cards! + Freebie!

First of all, I want to let you know about a sale going on all day Thurday. You can get 40% off at MyGrafico. So if you've had your eye on any of Lindsay's new sets, now is the time to buy! If you haven't seen her new stuff, scroll down!

This week I opted to make something totally different. I needed to make some new business cards for my upcoming craft fair in december. So I used Lindsay's new Bowling Fun Papers to create a fun and colorful business card! I manipulated the papers on my free Paint.net program and then saved the file and opened it in my Microsoft Publisher program to add the text.

Here is the first design I came up with. I was beginning to run out of printer ink, so I altered the design some more and came up with another design which you can see below.

 I acutally like the white design better. What do you think?

Before I hand over your freebie, I wanted to show you Lindsay's other new sets!
