Hot Air Birthday Balloon

Thanks, Paula Wright, for inspiring this card!  Camp cards this month are for the guys — but I don’t know why a woman wouldn’t enjoy this particular one.  We got this set, You’re Amazing, at Convention last year, but this … Continue reading

Chair up!

No, I really can’t use that pun for the recipient of this card, someone’s who’s discouraged and struggling.  I hope her day is brightened by this, one of my favorite camp cards from a few years ago.  Except for the … Continue reading

Sweet flowers

Bashful Blue has never been one of my go-to Stampin’ Up! colors, so it’s been surprising to me how often I’ve used it lately!  I thought I wouldn’t mind it being discontinued, but … (You have seen the news about … Continue reading

A rainbow of Easter Blessings
