This card is the new Tags Pivot Card from Karen Burniston. I paired it up with Stampin Up’s Love is Kindness in the Occasions Mini. The card base is stamped with the Dictionary background stamp and the image was stamped, colored with Blendabilities and fussy cut. A little Typeset Designer Series paper and some Chevron ribbon finishes off this card.
There is a little, tiny piece of one of the flowers that was added to the front to keep the bouquet full. Hugs, Fran
Time to Celebrate is one of the hostess choices in the Occasions Mini catalog. A friend of mine and I love these images and she “challenged” me to make something with them. I did some very clean and simple cards – simply stamping the images in Momento Tux Black ink and coloring them Blendabilities. The only addition are some Candy Dots in the corner.
So there you have it! Clean and simple! Hugs, Fran
This stamp comes from the Occasions Mini set Hello Life. My card is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 and the heart on the sentiment is filled with Dazzling Details. It sparkles! But then you open it up and….
It’s Karen Burniston’s new Pop It Ups Eiffel Tower die! This die has a “stand” that die cuts directly into the card. The doily is another new Pop It Ups – Paris Edges. Perfect!
I hope You have a happy day today! Hugs, Fran
Here’s my take on Sheltering Tree from the Occasions Mini. Instead of embossing, I added Dazzling Details. This is such a great set! I used Soft Sky and Early Espresso inks for the winter scene. This is one of the cards we made at Card Club yesterday.
One of the Splitcoast Creative Crew challenges this month is to take a frame and repurpose it with stuff from a guy’s garage. Funny – because my garage contains cars and stamps! I decided to play along and created this framed piece using stamps from Guy Greetings and the Typeset DSP. Here are some close ups –
I sponged the squares with Crumb Cake and added some Real Red to just a few places to highlight some of the details. You can play along too using the key word CCREW0115SF

It IS a Big Day in Stampin land! Today starts Saleabration and the Occasion Mini catalog! For every $50 you spend you get to select a free product from the Saleabration Catalog. This Saleabration set is called Big Day. I made up the sample shown in the mini with a change or two to make it my own. Colored with Blendabilities, it’s a sparkling wish for a happy birthday. I love this time of year! Hugs, Fran

Here’s a set that’s perfect not only for Valentines, but any occasion. It’s called Hey, Valentine – but as you can see, I masked off the Valentine part and just used “you’re a treasure.” The bag is made with the new Mini Treat Bag Thinlit. This is a great die that can be used as a flat or standing bag.
I matted my little image on a “sailor’s wheel” made with a circle punch and Word Window punch. The image is colored with Blendabilities. This would work for Valentine or birthday treats – or any occasion calling for candy! Hugs, Fran

Here’s another set that can be found on the Photopolymer page only – Settin’ Sail. I used the Maritime Designer Series paper to create this simple card. I stamped the sailboat 3 times and then fussy cut the different pieces and paper pieced it together. I love easy! Hugs, Fran

My brother recently had a birthday and this is the card I made for him using the upcoming set Cheerful Critters. I colored the images using Blendabilities and fussy cut them out. On the middle banner I stamped a sentiment from Something to Say. On the inside I used the Happy Birthday Pop It Up from Karen Burniston and spelled out his name with SU’s Little Letters. The DSP is coming up in the Occasions Mini – Birthday Bash Specialty DSP.
This was a fun card to make! Hugs, Fran
Happy New Year everyone! Today’s card uses the Photopolymer stamp Bombs Away Birthday This set can only be found under the Photopolymer link on the web site – but it’s worth the search! It’s hard to tell in the photo but the fringe on the side is cut from Silver foil paper and really shines!
The base is Whisper White with Silver dot Vellum over the top. Then I added some In Color sequins. The ribbon was the White Satin ribbon – colored with the lightest Coastal Cabana Blendabilities marker. To make the record, I punched a 2 1/2″ circle and then traced several Circle Framelits to make the “grooves.”
Can you see them? This card completes a Creative Crew challenge on Splitcoast to use the fringe scissors 🙂 You can play along too by adding the keyword CCREW0115CF, CreativeCrew, SUO. Hugs, Fran
