YouTube Video Share: from Barb Mullikin

Thank you Barb for sharing this AWESOME tutorial on how to tie the perfect knot.  Great tutorial!

Another Cool Feature Using My Digital Studio

So was surfing the net today and saw a darling card made with the Blossom Punch and Bright Blossoms stamp (which will be available for purchase June 1st).  Soooo ... you know me ... I had to see if I could get it to work in My Digital Studio Software by Stampin' Up! ... well it did and I LOVE it!

These are the types of items that I like to make and file in my Altoid Tins that I have labeled for my ease in putting together cards when I need them.

The stamp set, Teeny Tiny Wishes fits perfectly into the Word Window Punch and is so versatile that you can make a base card that once the sentiment is added you have a card ready to go in no time.  Hope you give it a try!

So Crafting Friends ... What's on Your A-Genda for This Weekend?

It is such a beautiful day today and I see there may be some mowing (at my Daddy's) in the picture for me today ;-)

So far this morning, I have been out enjoying the beautiful sun, freshly mowed grass (thanks to my Honey) and the sound of the beautiful birds and chirping squirrels.  They have been fed their morning food and fresh water and should be good to go!  Weeds have been picked and the yard looks bee-u-tiful!

I LOVE to use my Stampin' Up! punches so this morning, I spent about 1/2 hour and used my Blossom Punch and punched over 100 flowers from my Summer 2011 Hancock Quilt Catalog.  Just love their fabrics!

A Dear Friend asked if I could create her a gift certificate for her Neice and after some Google Searching and playing around with multiple fonts ... here is the end result. Thanks to Mary Fish and Beate Johns for the inspiration and tutorial!

I created the design digitally using the Baroque Motifs Flourish Stamp Set within My Digital Studio by Stampin' Up!

Some Fun Cards Found on Splitcoaststampers.com

I love Splitcoaststampers.com!  It is such a great place for inspiration.  I met so many wonderful folks at the craft fair and have had several requests for special cards.  In my search for inspiration I find cards that I just love to CASE (which in the crafting world stands for Copy And Share Everything).

I did NOT make this card, the post was made by flowerbugnd1 and is just precious.  I hope you enjoy as much as I do!
