I used the Wetlands stamp set from Stampin’ Up! to create a masculine birthday card to share with you today. My card design was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #138 and CAS-ual Fridays CFC132.

Remembering Your Birthday Circles – Stampin’ Up!
I thought that I’d show you an easy way to use the Stampin’ Up! circle punches to create a fun birthday card. My card design was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #77, which was perfect to showcase the layered embossing technique!
Hip Notes On Film – Stampin’ Up!
When I saw the Stamping and Blogging Sketch this week, I thought that the On Film Framelits Dies from Stampin’ Up! would be a perfect fit. I added a little I Am Me DSP and the Hip Notes stamp set and my card came together fairly quickly. And I’ll apologize upfront for the long post, there are lots of great updates from Stampin’ Up! today (a retiring sale starting tomorrow, half of June Paper Pumpkin Kits and a joining special next week!!) so be sure to check them all out!

May Paper Pumpkin from Stampin’ Up!
My Paper Pumpkin kit for May arrived on Friday so I tore right in and put the kit together. This time the kit made some cool Father’s Day cards and masculine birthday cards.

Sea Street Birthday Sneak Peek – Stampin’ Up!
I finally got my big box of new stuff from Stampin’ Up! on Wednesday afternoon and (of course) I had a school meeting that ran an hour late so it was after 9 PM when I was finally able to get my paws on my new stamps! I made a quick card to share today with the new Sea Street stamp set and Maritime DSP. I started playing with my new Blendabilities last night and I’ve got a card ready to share using those tomorrow. 🙂

In Color Papillon Potpourri Birthday – Stampin’ Up!
I was so happy to see that the Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder made its way into the 2014-15 Stampin’ Up! Catalog. I love it!! I pulled it back out and used it to create a birthday card to share with you today.
Make a Cake With the In Colors & New Weekly Deals from Stampin’ Up!
I used the Make a Cake and Create a Cupcake stamp sets along with the retiring 2012-14 In Colors to create a card to share with you today. My card design was inspired by Try Stampin’ on Tuesday #164. The twist this week is a Sweet Tooth. I hope all of that cake is sweet enough!!
April My Paper Pumpkin & Happenings Simply Created Kit from Stampin’ Up!
Happy Easter to those of you who are celebrating today. Hope that you have a fantastic day with your families. 🙂 The April My Paper Pumpkin Kit arrived in the mail from Stampin’ Up! on Friday so, of course, I tore right in! This is what the kit created:
Quick Hip Hip Hooray Birthday Card – Stampin’ Up!
We’ve got several birthday parties coming up for my daughters friends so I pulled out the stamp from the Hip Hip Hooray Card Kit and a little Birthday Basics DSP from Stampin’ Up! and I went to work. The Freshly Made Sketches #131 sketch made for a quick and easy card!
