Happy Monday! Here is another Origami Tie card. I used Summer Smooches DSP for my tie with Island Indigo for the shirt. I attached the shirt to Daffodil Delight cardstock. I thought the shirt looked very blah so of course, I ran it through my Big Shot, as I did with my card yesterday.
Have a great rest of the day and thank you for stopping by!

Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads out there! My card today could be used as a Father’s Day card or a birthday card for your favorite guy. My Stamp Club group made this card this week in honor of Father’s Day. My wonderful father passed away in October 2009 and this is the first time since then that I’ve been able to make a card for my group at this time of year. Time certainly helps but it is still such an awful empty feeling. I have wonderful memories of my dad. I never, ever doubted his love for me. Here’s a picture of me with my dad and my daughters. It was 25 years ago but I love it. I was living in Florida at the time and my dad came out to visit us on my birthday.
If you’ve lost your dad, I hope your memories are helping you today. If you still are able to enjoy your dad, let him know how much you love him!
Tomorrow I will have another version of my Origami Tie card. If you want to know how to make one, just google origami tie and lots of directions will pop up. If you can’t find one, just let me know and I will post a link.
Thank you for stopping by today!

I’ve been trying so hard to post on a regular basis but it just has been difficult the past few weeks. The card I am showing you today is going into the mailbox for my son-in-law as soon as I finish this post. My daughter will be visiting us next week but Tyler won’t be able to make it so I am sending him this card along with a gift card tucked inside. I had a hard time making an Easter card for a male that wasn’t too frilly. I did use my scallop circle punch because otherwise I was afraid it wouldn’t be cute enough and I CAN’T have that!!! 🙂
I used the stamp set Everybunny which is in the Idea Book and Catalog. It is a cute set. I used watercolor paper and colored my chick with watercolor crayons after I stamped the image with Staz-On. The sentiment is also from the same set. It actually said,”Happy Easter Everybunny” but I didn’t want the words everybunny so I used my Pacific Point Marker directly over the words Happy Easter directly.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Only TWO MORE DAYS until Sale-a-bration goes away until next year! If you would like to place an order, you can visit my Stampin’ Up! website 24/7.
Take Care,

Hi Stampers,
As promised, here is another card with the same flower that I posted on Monday. I used Lucky Limeade and Pool Party. I would never have used these colors together but they are in the Everyday Enchantment DSP and look so pretty together. It is so funny but sometimes it takes me hours to do JUST ONE CARD. I try so many different color combinations until I decide on the ones I want to use. This color or that, emboss with the Big Shot, ribbon??? These are the questions that go through my mind. I wasn’t sure if I wanted ribbon but as you can see, I went with the crochet ribbon. Still not quite sure if I really needed it. So, if you find that you take an inordinate amount of time for one card, you are not alone!!!
Thank you for stopping by! Hope your week is going well!
