New Stuff

 I talked myself into buying this month's card kit. It's floral themed and I already have a ton of floral themed stamp sets but this one is floral frames so....well, you know.




I also bought this newly released summer stamp and die set. I actually stayed up until the midnight release so I could get a set in my cart. Lawn Fawn products sell out so quickly and this one is so darn cute and perfect for a summer giveaway card if someone would ever want to unload some beachy themed soap in the near future. Ahem.....



 This is yet another example of midnight madness. I saw someone using this pen for blending some stamped images so of course I had to get one to try it out.



What I've really been up to in the card room is trying to come up with a thank you card. I'm putting together soapy gift bags for the Grands to give their teachers but found that stamp sets dedicated to educational themes are hard to come by. I've had to improvise using bits and pieces of the different sets I already have. If you participated in the February giveaway you probably recognize where I'm going with this. I think it will work. Right?

  4. Really cute summer stamp kit! You really are good at playing with the stamps and coming up with so much cool stuff on one little card!

  5. I'd have stayed up for the sailboat stamps too! Anything with a boat goes directly into my cart. And yes, I think the teacher's thank you note will be a huge hit!

  7. You find the best products! Those are both super cute. You have so much patience with your cards. Mine are much looser and simpler -- and involve a lot less detailed cutting!

  9. Your soap will make those lucky teachers very happy! Give your DH my condolences on the wasp sting; that happened to me, too, and it really did sting. It took a while to go away also.
