You Are Amazing Cat card

 

You really don't need a special occasion to tell someone that they are amazing.  Sometimes, it's best just to surprise them for no reason.  I love cat stamps and Penny Black stamps so I'm always happy when they release a new one.

Celebrate Girl With Flowers card

 

I'm kind of ashamed to say that I colored this sweet girl last year and am just now getting around to making a card for her.  I actually like the bold green and purples together to make a card suitable for a birthday or Mother's Day.  I just got a fresh batch of stamps from Whipper Snapper Designs so hopefully I'll have more cards using their stamps up soon.

You're My Hero card

I think everyone needs to hear this now and then.  Maybe the world would be just a little better if more people said it to someone...which is why I bought this stamp.  I try to tell it to my friends, even some that aren't occasionally.

Mom's Instruction Manual card

It's too late for a birthday card or Mother's Day card for my mom but this would be perfect.  She used to wear curlers to bed and swears she still has indents from them.  Love these stamps from Technique Junkies.  I used a light gray ink to stamp the background and it turned into a lovely lilac.  Win win!
