In celebration of the dearly departing stamp set Circle Circus :( I used this set at my last card buffet.  I will truly miss this set because it is one of my favorite go-to masculine stamp sets.  As you can see I am using more masculine colors on this card for it's bon voyage as well.  Circle Circus you will be missed.

I met Stampin' Royalty!!!

I was super lucky enough to meet Shelli a few weeks ago at a Baltimore Regional Convention.  I was lucky because this was only the second opportunity I had to get my picture taken with her and I was able to do so.  My downline had waited many years for the same opportunity and thank goodness she was able to meet her too!!!!  It was a great day full of stampin' fun and some awesome sneak peeks.

Happy Stampin

Still Sale A Brating.....

 

I made this card at my hubby's request.  He asked for two masculine and two feminine cards about two weeks ago.  Unfortunately, this one is still laying on the desk beside me as I type this post.  I had an awesome time with both of these stamp sets during Sale A Bration and in the background is an old favorite - French Foliage.  I am getting more and more nervous as April 24th draws near.  I hope I don't loose too many of my favorite stamp sets.  I am still in shock that Certainly Celery is retiring, are you???

Postage Due

 

Dear Blog, once again I have neglected you, for that I am so very sorry, but I have an excuse....I had to prepare swaps for Regionals  :)  This is a swap that ended up on the cutting room floor, no not really, it just did not make the cut.  It will be used though, someone will get this card one day.  I love to make cards with no sentiment, that way I can come back later on and just choose one from my stash, add a sentiment and away it goes to some lucky recipient.  This card uses Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, and Island Indigo.  I was trying to use up my Island Indigo ribbon until I learned this awesome color was not retiring after all, YIPPPEEE.  Hope you get some stampin' in today

Primrose Petals Thank You

I made this card for my hubby to send to some sweet friends of ours.  I CASED this card from a SWAP I received from Convention last summer.  I changed up the EF I used as well as the sentiment but otherwise the layout is basically the same.  This set is so Versatile, I love it
