A Stampin' Fool!

I was a stampin' fool last night!  I was determined to get rid of some little half-finished images and pieces that were littering my table, so I cranked up my iced tea and went to work!  This is a long post, so bear with me, but I won't put a lot of descriptions.  Just look at them!!

Scraps 1

This butterfly was left over from my last stamp club and the card was left over from my last stamp camp, so I put them all together with a Swiss Dot piece that Anne gave me.  I am sending this to my college roomie!

 

 

 

 

Scraps 2 

This is a notecard made with a watercolored image I had made a while ago.  The ribbon was some my daughter had left over from a wedding.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scraps 3

This is a little Elzybell image I had paper-pieced with some Groovy Guava DP.  I mounted it on some beautiful shimmery Swiss Dot paper from my friend Billie!  Sentiment is from Papertrey.

 

Scraps 4

This is an image I downloaded from Vintage Workshops, which is an awesome sight if you love vintage things.  I did overstamp it with Linen so it would go with my new Autumn Leaves DP.  It's a pretty lame card, but I'll use it for a guy card.

 

Scraps 5

This card was NOT a scrap--I found a new blog showcasing Clean And Simple designs, so I used her first sketch to make a springy berry card with Papertrey's Green Thumb set.  Since I knew it wouldn't take too long, I forged ahead!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scraps 6

Are you tired yet?  This is some more of my vintage Autumn Leaves paper, made into a business-size card with the little apple from Tart & Tangy.  Cute, huh!?  Sorry the photo really doesn't do it justice--just bad lighting here today due to yucky weather.

And last, but certainly not least, are some nice cards and a little gift I received lately from friends & customers:

 


Beth's Card 2

A beautiful card from my friend Beth--I just love this ribbon!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Julia's Card

An adorable card my friend Julia sent me with some stamped images.  Check out her blog here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Judy's Bookmark

A beautiful bookmark my friend Judy made for me using dried flowers!

Thanks everyone for looking!!!

Love all your cards, especially the spring tree - simple, classic, beautiful. I was wondering if you would share the new blog you found that showcases clean and simple designs. Thanks!

I'm glad to see all those swiss dots. They seem to really MAKE a card. I ordered SWISS DOTS for my new Cuttlebug and can't wait for them to get here.

By the way, I really don't know enough people to send my cards to, so I actually force myself NOT to make them!! Waaaa

What do YOU do with all your beautiful cards?
