Here’s a “boy” take on the washing line card I did here.
I used the Owl Punch to make the overalls and ran the Baker’s Twine through a Daffodil Delight pad to color it. I stamped the “wash line” with Bordering on Romance – the stamp that matches the Edgelit die- traced it with Multi Purpose glue and attached the Baker’s Twine.
The clouds are from Send Me Soaring.
The grass is from Gnome Sweet Gnome.

I’m making clips again! On this one I used the Beautiful Butterfly die and the Bordering on Romance set to top off a little gable box.
I die cut 8 butterflies and embossed the top one. I applied the glimmer brad by cutting off the legs and gluing it down. The DSP on the clip in Attic Boutique.
I made the tag with p.s. I love you and tied it on the box with Poppy Parade ribbon. The Poppy Parade trim around the box is made with the Tasteful Trim die.
Now I can fill it and give it away! Enjoy – Hugs, Fran
This card is for a high school friend that found me on Facebook. The new Loving Thoughts stamp set came in handy! Nice to have options!
I stamped the flowers several times on water color paper so I could cut them out and pop them up. I used a sketch that Mary Brown did for a small note card – enlarged it and added some ribbon.

I saw a really cute card done by Lori at Linking Aloud and cased it using SU products. It’s sweet and simple – and uses lots of stamp sets (which I’m famous for and need to stop doing!)
Lori had hearts hanging on a wash line – I used the new Bordering on Romance set to create a wash line and masked off the sides. The line around it is drawn by hand.
Supplies
Stamp Sets – I (heart) Hearts, Bordering on Romance, p.s. I Love You
card stock – Whisper White, Basic Black, Crumb Cake
Ink – Real Red
Stampin Write Marker – Basic Black
I ran down to Savannah Georgia to get my son settled back in to school this week – fast and furious but we did it! So today I am trying to pull lots of things together in my stamp room. My Christmas tree is still up but I’m guessing it won’t harm anyone if it’s up until this weekend 
Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
I tend to give lots of gift cards to my teenage nieces and nephew. It’s just easier for that age group- LOTS easier! You can use the Big Shot Petite Pocket die to wrap up gift cards in a snap!
This is so easy – die cut the Petite Pocket (I used the glitter dots from Holly Berry Bouquet) and adhere a very thin strip down of Real Red down the middle. Add a Real Red satin bow and a Crumb Cake tag stamped with Dear Santa – and you’ve got a cute gift card holder. Almost makes me feel guilty – it’s so easy! Here’s a note – I do not adhere the sides of the pocket together when using it for gift tags. A brad on the back holds the holder together just fine. You can adhere it if you want – it’s just a bit snug that way and if that’s what you’re going for – it works!
And a sneak peek – Bordering on Romance from the upcoming Occasions Mini. (I just had to stop and play with new stuff!)

Stamp sets – Bordering on Romance, Petite Pairs
card stock- Pink Pirouette, Pink Pirouette DSP Whisper White
ink – Basic Black, Pretty in Pink

I’m having some really strange computer problems this morning. It’s only raining outside so I’m not sure what the problem could be. I have a definite love/hate relationship with my computer. Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
