This is a card I made for my nephew's birthday. In case you haven't noticed, the recurring theme on my cards lately is that they are late!</div>

The truck is from Close To My Heart's Maximum Power Stamp set. Even though the card was for a guy, I couldn't resist adding a little bling on the lights on top of the truck. I hope you like it!<br />

I'm not to great with coloring... yet! Maybe I should be taking some of Sami's coloring classes!<br />
<br />
Anyways, I glittered the trim on her dress and hat. Then added a pompom on her hat, stickles on her shoes and blinged up her belt and bow! I also cut the candy cane and put it in her hand.<br />
<br />
I used the SP & Company's Filled with Cheer Emma stamp set which can be purchased <a href="http://spandcompany.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=161_79&products_id=1842">here.</a> I highly recommend Sami's stamps. They give such crisp impressions.<br />
<br />
Hope you like it!<br />

Think Halloween treats, Christmas or winter holiday treats, birthdays, etc. I decided to make a masculine birthday card with cupcakes. I just don't have enough masculine cards.<br />
<br />
For this card I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder from the Once Upon A Princess Set. The chevron paper was a sample that Sami sent me with my recent order. I used 2 SP & Company stamp sets. The frame is from <a href="http://spandcompany.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=161_79&products_id=1887">Handmade Holiday Gift Tags</a> and the sentiment is from <a href="http://spandcompany.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=161_169&products_id=381">Mix 'n Match: Basics</a>. SP & Company stamps are so great to mix 'n match with each other.<br />
<br />
Hope you like it!<br />

Of course, I made a card. I love the black and white and think I'll have to make some more cards.<br />
<br />
I used My Creative Time's <a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Teeny-Tag-Greetings-Stamp-Set-MCT-058.htm">Teeny Tag Greetings </a>stamp set. I stamped the sentiment using the <a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Stitched-Curly-Label-Die-MCT-D15.htm">Stitched Curly Label Die</a> and shadowed the sentiment using <a href="http://shop.my-creative-time.com/Curly-Label-Die-MCT-D01.htm">Curly Label Die</a>. I used Ice White Viva Decor Pearl Pen for the inside of the flower. I kind of messed up with the pearls but I guess that's what makes it "homemade"!<br />
<br />
Hope you like it!<br />

<br />
The old guy in the chair is from Art Impressions "Oscar". The banner and sentiment is from SP & Company's <a href="http://spandcompany.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30_40&products_id=2022">Happy Banners</a> stamp set. The "Old Guys Rule" came from paper that I bought at JoAnn's.<br />
<br />
This card was for my father-in-law's 75th birthday. He got a kick out of it. <br />

I made a gift card holder for my D-I-L's birthday gift. This is a super easy holder to make.<br />
<br />
I stamped Happy Birthday in blue ink but it's kind of hard to tell. The sentiment comes from SP & Company's <a href="http://spandcompany.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=161_4&products_id=2022">Happy Banner's</a> stamp set. This is one of my "go to" sets.<br />

<br />
I think burgers on the grill qualify for summer food. This was an invitation I made for a cookout.<br />

<br />
It's another <a href="http://www.thescrapmaster.com/2013/06/sp-color-combo-145.html">Color Combo Challenge #145</a> over at Scrapmaster's Paradise. The colors are:<br />
<br />
<br />
I used SP & Company's Certified Awesome stamp set and dies and Tiny Build a Banner stamp set. I also used Close to My Heart Classmate Alphabet set for the ruled paper. The background paper is from Echo Park Beautiful Life. I thought the sentiment fit perfectly with this paper. <br />
<br />
I mounted everything on a navy card base and popped up the banner. Super simple! I didn't even add any bling. I made this card in about an hour which is very quick for me. Spelling out "beyond measure" took the most time.<br />
<br />
I'm thinking of giving this to my hubbie who is more amazing than I let him know!<br />

<br />
I wanted to do another take on this by using the negative space of a die cut that I had and sponged it onto a card. The flower is from Stampin' Up. It's called Blessed Mother. I used Tim Holtz Distress Pens to color the stamp. The sentiment is from SP & Company's Bold Sentiment I. I used a gem for the center of the flower.<br />
<br />
I didn't have anybody in particular to give this card to but you can never have to many thank you cards in your stash. This was probably one of the quickest cards I have made!!<br />

There is still time to enter.<br />
<br />
I used K & Company Designer Mat Pad for the papers. The bird and the nest are also from the same company. To me the papers and colors look very vintagy (if that is a word :) ). The Happy Mother's Day was cut on my Cricut. Of course, it had to have some bling so I used pearls.<br />
<br />
My mom loved the card!<br />

<br />
<a href="http://www.thescrapmaster.com/2013/06/sp-color-combo-144.html">SP & Company Color Challenge #144</a> - using the following colors:<br />
<br />

<br />
<a href="http://www.thescrapmaster.com/2013/06/winners-and-trends-challenge-10.html">SP & Company Trends Challenge #10</a> - using negative space.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.creativetimeforme.com/2013/06/designer-challenge-bling-it-up.html">My Creative Time Designer Challenge - Bling It Up </a><br />
<br />
The background paper is from Echo Park Beautiful Life. It had all the colors that I needed for the color challenge. The base of the card is red although it's hard to tell from the picture. I cut out a scallop from the middle of the paper using my Spellbinders die (thus giving me the negative space).<br />
<br />
The Happy Birthday and the heart come from SP & Company's Round Sentiments I stamp set. The banner is from SP & Company's Stitchery Doo Banners set. Kelly was spelled using SP & Company's Tiny Build A Banner set.<br />
<br />
The butterflies were punched using Stampin' Up punches and stamped with the Stampin' Up Papillon Potpourri. I've never seen a red butterfly but I'm sure there's one out there somewhere is this great big world! I blinged up the flower centers using Stickles and put rhinestones on the butterflies.<br />
<br />
On the inside of the card I used SP & Company's Bold Birthday Sentiments.<br />
<br />
This will be the first card that I have made for my new daughter-in-law. I hope she enjoys it.<br />

I used 3 different stamp sets for this card...Ultimate Sentiments I, For Every Woman and Stitchery Doo Banners. Sami's stamps mix 'n match very well. I love them!<br />

My SIL's birthday is coming up in June so I thought I'd get a head start. The butterflies are from Stampin' Up embosslits and their new butterfly punch. I probably went a little over board with the liquid pearls and stickles, but I do love to bling up a card! :) <br />

<br />
Wow...this one was a LOT of work! My inspiration for the card came from the spring 2013 issue of CardMaker magazine. It is a cascading card. I made it for Mother's day... twice! I made one for my mom and another for my MIL. I just changed up the sentiments a little on each one.<br />

<br />
I used quite a few different stamps sets on these cards.<br />
<br />
SP & Company's Fashionista Alphabet to spell MOM<br />
SP & Company's Mix 'n Match Sentiments: Friends, Kids, Basics and Occasions<br />
SP & Company's For Every Women Stamp Set<br />
<br />

I used Big Build a Banner 2 dies for the banner and Big Build a Banner 2 stamp set for the numbers. The sentiment was from one of $1 stamps at Pat Catan's (I think it's a local store only).

l wasn't sure exactly what that meant but here is my take on it. This is a very rare card for me... as it is all <i>one</i> layer except the button with twine.<br />
<br />
I used SP & Company's Journal This stamp set for the grid background. For the sentiment I use SP & Company's Bold Sentiments I. The butterfly stamp is from Stampin' Up Papillon Potpourri. I used Tim Holtz markers to color the butterfly all the different colors.<br />
<br />
I'm thinking of using this for a sympathy card. I actually like how it came out and hope you do also.<br />

My niece is having her first baby and I wanted to send her a congrats card. The new Scrapmaster's Paradise <a href="http://www.thescrapmaster.com/2013/04/april-stamp-product-release-blog-hop.html?showComment=1365712591372#c1487892420698135026">Color Combo Challenge #139</a> is great for a baby card. They aren't going to find out what sex the baby is so this is perfect 'cause it has the pink and blue in it.<br />
<br />

I used some stickles on the brown polka dots, her purse, shoes and headband. I probably wouldn't use them on the polka dots if I did it again. Hope you like it!!</div>
