I used the new Sketched Birthday stamp set from Stampin’ Up! to create my card share for today. I’m loving the mix of this set with the Birthday Basics DSP (don’t forget the current buy 3 get 1 free DSP promotion going on now!!). My card design was inspired by Retrosketches #71.

Remembering Your Birthday Cupcake Card
I was able to get another card done today…once again late. I’ll try to get back on my morning posting schedule soon. I used the new Remembering Your Birthday and the Create a Cupcake stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! to create my card. My design was inspired by the RetroSketches #69.
Best of Birthdays Bright Cupcake Card
I used the Best of Birthdays and Banner Greetings stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! to create my card today. I used a little of the new Simply Pressed Clay to make the flower, that stuff is so much fun! My card design was inspired by the Mojo Monday 295 Sketch and I picked out some bright colors, hope that you don’t need your shades!
Sweets for the Sweet Pinwheel Card
Today I’m sharing a card that I made using the Sweets for the Sweet and Wishes Your Way stamp sets and the Pinwheel Sizzlits S Die from Stampin’ Up! My card design was inspired by the Retrosketches #62 and the colors are from the Dynamic Duos #51 Color Challenge.
Bright Best of Birthdays
I created this card with the Stampin’ Up! Best of Birthdays stamp set for the Mojo Monday 290 Sketch.
Create a Cupcake with Washi Tape
My card share for today was inspired by the Fab Friday 16 Color Challenge. I used the Stampin’ Up! Create a Cupcake and new Washi Tape to make the card.
Just Buzzin’ By With Designer Typset Stamps
Today I’m sharing a card that I created for the Fab Friday 15 Sketch Challenge. I needed a couple of quick kid birthday cards so I used the new Designer Typset Photopolymer and the Bug Me stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! to make them.

Moving Forward Birthday Balloon
Today I’m sharing a card that I made for the Fab Friday 13 Sketch Challenge using the Stampin’ Up! stamp set called Moving Forward. This stamp set is located on the very last page of the Annual Catalog (page 209) and Stampin’ Up! donates $3 to the Ronald MacDonald House for each time this set is purchased! This set makes great kid and adult cards, this card is for my nephew who is turning two this week.
Here is the Fab Friday sketch:

Today I’m sharing a card that I made using the Topsy-Turvy Celebration stamp set from Stampin’ Up! I combined it with the Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Stack, which is one of my favorite things from the Spring Catalog. I love the color combinations!
Springtime Everybunny and 100th Post Blog Candy!!
Wow, I talk a lot!! Today is officially my 100th blog post. To celebrate, I’m offering some blog candy!! All that you need to do is leave a comment on this post by Saturday morning (February 16) about what your favorite Valentine Treat is and you’ll be entered to win. Your favorite treats can be as simple as the conversation hearts or something more extravagant like mine, a huge dessert. Anyone is welcome to leave a comment!
I have a huge sweet tooth so it’s a little hard for me to limit my favorite treat to just one, but if I had to pick I’d have to say that Jake’s Famous Chocolate Bag would probably top my list. There is a restaurant here in Portland called Jake’s Famous Crawfish and they have a signature dessert that is a dark chocolate bag (the entire bag is edible dark chocolate, yummy!!) that they fill with white chocolate mousse and top with blueberries, raspberries and blackberries…oh my, is that good! If you’re ever in Portland, it’s definitely worth the drive downtown to check it out.
Okay, enough about my favorite treat. Since this is an extra special post, I thought I’d put some extra special blog candy up for grabs:

The blog candy package includes:
- Simply Soft Clear Mount Stamp Set
- Daffodil Delight 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon
- Certainly Celery 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon
- Printed Designer Brads 2011-13 In Colors
Just leave a comment about your favorite Valentine Treat at the end of this post and you’ll be entered to win too! I’ll draw a random winner from all of the comments left on this posting by Saturday morning.
