Stay Paws-itive card

Being sick is never fun and it's easy to feel down.  This card it to help that special someone feel better, even if it's only for a minute.  I do love this stamp set and am making the most of using all the stamps - 3 down and 2 to go.  I have had this paper package sitting next to my cutter for over and month and finally was able to match it for this card.

Cuter Than A Panda Butt card

I love pandas!  I've saw Bei Bei and Bao Bao being born at the Smithsonian Zoo on their web cams and watched them grow up.  I accidentally ran across this set on the Whimsy Stamps website and it was just in time because it sold out shortly after I bought it.  It was my lucky day.  This is a great kit with the stamp set, dies, embossing folder, glitter tape, mini wobblers, black pom poms, card stock and fancy card stock.  Have I gushed enough?  Probably not but I'll stop now and you can see the results.

Oh how I wish it was me....not yet but I'll have a nice craft stash when I do!  It's good to have goals like that.  This is another fun stamp set from Art Impressions and appropriate for a summertime retirement.  Or even winter if they are heading south to escape the snow and cold.

Hoppy Hoppy Birthday card

It's no secret that I'm a bunny fan and so I snapped up this MFT Bunny set as soon as it came out.  It just took me a little while to get around using it.  I made this card for a special friend that I made on Instagram who is celebrating her birthday.
