a birthday thank you…

All Things Thanks - Birthday Thank You by Tammy C. Wilson

04.22.18… I’ve always thought that it’s so convenient to have extra birthday cards on hand.  However….I think it’s even more important to have thank you cards made ahead of time as well.  How many times have you received a gift from a friend, and then thought…..I really don’t need to send them a thank you card, because I’ve already told them “thanks”.  And besides…who doesn’t love to receive a handmade card…no matter what the occassion!

Window Shopping - Make A Wish by Tammy C. Wilson

04.07.18… It’s always nice to have extra birthday cards on hand, especially if you have younger children.  When my kids were in elementary school (they are now 25 and 28 years old), it seemed like there was a birthday party every other weekend!  You’ll want to make this card in multiples, and you’ll be ready to “grab-n-go” whenever those parties popup!

Amazing You and Springtime Foils by Tammy C.

Fruit Basket - Strawberries - You are the sweetest! by Tammy C. Wilson.jpg

03.12.18… The Fruit Basket stamp set is one of the “sweetest” sets in the current Stampin’ Up! Occasions catalog! I’ve been having so much fun creating some adorable cards with this set.  And…..with the ever-so-handy Itty Bitty Fruit Punch Pack (used to perfectly punch out your stamped fruit images) and the coordinating Continue reading “you are the sweetest…”

Fruit Basket - Hello Friend by Tammy C. Wilson

03.04.18… Today has been a dark, snowy, rainy day where I live (oh…and did I mention the hail, too!), so I thought I create something bright, fun, and cheery!  And…what a better product bundle to use than the Fruit Basket Bundle (includes the Fruit Basket stamp set and the Itty Bitty Fruit Punch Pack at a 10% discount) from thelatest Occasions catalog!  With the ever-so-handy Itty Bitty Fruit Punch Pack (used to perfectly punch out your stamped fruit images) and the coordinating Tutti-Frutti 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper Pack…..you’ll be in lemon heaven!

bananas for birthdays…

Fruit Basket - Happy Birthday by Tammy C. Wilson03.04.18… I love the new Fruit Basket Stamp Set and the coordinating Tutti-Fruitti 6×6 Designer Series Paper Stack.  This stamp set has such cute little fruit stamps, but also some great little sentiment stamps that you can use throughout theyear!

I’d been wanting to make a card with the banana patterned paper from the Tutti-Frutti 6×6 Designer Series Paper Stack, so I decided to keep things fairly simply and just use the “Happy Birthday to You” sentiment stamp from the Fruit Basket Stamp Set.

03.03.18… Yes, I’ve done it again! I’ve created two more cards with the Lots of Lavender stamp set, available for FREE (with a purchase of $50 or more) during Sale-A-Bration.

A few blog posts ago, a created a very similar standard size (4-1/4″x 5-1/2″) card.  However, I really love to make smaller (or “mini”) Continue reading “a little bit of lavender…”
