Double Layer T-Shirt

Happy mid week everyone and I hope that all is going well for you.


I was blog surfing this evening and came across a T-shirt card that was created by Darlene McCallum. I kept the colors and the design almost the same. I used a different stamp set and made a double layer t-shirt instead of a single like Darlene's. The card was fun and fast to make. This card could be used for just about any occasion. I chose not to put a sentiment on the card yet.

Stamp Set: Sail Away (summer mini catalog)


Cardstock: Basic Black and Wild Wasabi Designer Paper (Designer Series Subtle Collection)


Accessories: 2 X 1 3/8 Oval Punch, 1 3/4 X 7/ 8 oval punch, Wild Wasabi Embossing Powder (summer mini catalog), Heat Gun, versamark pad and Embossing buddy.


I enjoy stamping clean and simple!!!!

Single Layer Christmas Card

The last few days I have been posting holiday cards that are the same but with a small twist to them. I just wanted to show the versatility of one stamp set. Where two cards cards can be made and with a few accessory changes the card can have a slight different look to it.

This is a single layer card which can be made by children. My 5 year old niece loves making her cards with punch. This would be a great card for children to make for their classmates.

Christmas Petals A Plenty

I am loving the embossing folders and my big shot right now. I love how a lot of them just coordinate with the holidays. So right now I am stuck on using my embossing folders. I used the same embossing folder, two different stamps from one stamp set, and a few different accessories and have two different looks.

The greeting stamp that was used is new to my collection but you can beat having four different holiday stamps. This greeting stamp set is endless.

I cased this card design from Kitkatt55 I didn't use the exact same accessories that Kat did. Thanks for the design layout. Use can use any color that you want. Christmas just doesn't have to be red and white.

Cardstock: Whisper White and Real Red

Ink: Basic Black

This card was made in less then 10 minutes. I do believe the longest part was getting the circles lined up. No, I am not that girl to pull out the ruler and make sure that it is spaced out to. I like to attempt to eye ball it and get it right. I enjoy simple and stress free stamping. I love just doing simple things!!!!!

What Is On The Table

My gal pal Rose came down to visit with me last weekend because she has moved away and I haven't seen her in months. Rose and I just had a very easy going day nothing really planned, but to enjoy each another. Well in the process of the visiting what happened we began to stamp. Rose, brought a few of her embossing folders with her that I don't own so I could emboss some cardstock. I wanted to make a masculine card for a good friend that is under that weather. The supplies we had were very limited. This is why I titled this card what is on the table? Rose used what she had in front of her literally.

Cardstock: Espresso, Basic Grey, Old Olive, and Natural White

Stamp: Daffodil Stamp From Michaels & Teeny Tiny Wishes (SU)

Ink: Chocolate Chip

Accessories: Chocolate Chip & Old Olive Markers, Gold Brads, Modern Label Extra Large, Big Shot, and Square Lattice.

Technique: Sponging

Rose put this card together in a matter of minutes. I love to see Rose Stamping blood flow.

Thank Rose for being my friend.
