Decisions, Decisions!
The hardest part of this job today was figuring out what to bark about! Decisions, decisions! It's almost more than a dog could handle! I could write about how we upgraded yesterday's card based on your suggestions, but I shared that with my Facebook fans...
Breaking the Rules
I know that somewhere in the human rubber stamping rule book it says that you've got to have a border on everything. It also says that cards look better in real life (IRL). And it probably says that you should put glossy paper & watercolor paper on the...
Cupcake Crazy Updates & Great Artist Award
Karen came back again yesterday to help Ann with the latest stamp room updates. Ah, the joy of the tip tap of little hammers! OK - the sound of ELECTRIC SCREWDRIVERS! Those girls are pretty adamant about the modeling contract so I had to catch Karen...
Summer Solstice Celebration
This can't be the longest day of the year already, can it? OH MY! I've got so much more barking to do! Before I share today's tasty treat, let's have a real celebration! Ann' newsletter friend already know about it, but...
I’m So Flattered!
Happy Dad's Day I think that Dads are the reason that so many kids & pups are around. You love them so much that you want to duplicate them! It's the highest form of flattery, you know! My friend Dawn got a gift card holder card &...
May the Purple Bird of Happiness…
You just don't see many birds on my blog. I'll tell you how this one got here so maybe you can do the same challenge. We keep our stamps in a stamp closet as shown in this post. But I know many of my stampin' friends keep them in...
Is It Done Yet?
Well, maybe yes. Maybe no. Do you have something fun planned for the 4th of July? We generally do. We were working on this card last night & having some fun making our favorite Veteran smile. You see, this could be an invitation to the party...
Blackbird
I was listening to an old Beatles tune when I came up with this cool card. It uses the ALWAYS stamp set that Stampin' Up! is retiring on June 30th. It's a keeper, but most people like Chocolate Chip for that bird. You can learn how to make the...
Another Sneak Peek!
We've held onto this one long enough! Stampin' Up! sent Ann an invitation to have dinner with one of the Big Dogs at Stampin' Up! while they were on the cruise. I'm sure they wanted me to join them as well, but I was busy at the doggy...
Getting Married?
Not me! But maybe you know someone who is having an anniversary or getting ready to jump the broom. This card is it! - but it's just hard to take a picture of & looks much better in live dog (like real life). The inspiration card that Lisa...
Sneak Peek
The whole time my favorite kidlets were here, the weather was miserable. They were great at throwing my ball around to entertain themselves. Jaylen is a master with his little handheld (& scratching my back). Bianca is quite the little...
Oops! It’s Quick & Easy! And Retiring!
Quick & easy. Clean & simple. No matter what you call it, it's one you can duplicate over & over. They did this fun card at the Sacramento Stamp Club last night. I told Ann to stamp the retiring Bella Toile background stamp...
Father’s Day Card
Have you made your Father's Day Cards yet? Here's one for those of you who have little birdlets at home. It uses the Happy Together stamp set that's retiring at the end of this month. I don't see this stamp set normally not for a...
Now & Later Surfboard
Today's card is a quick "Today & Tomorrow" card. It features a stamp that you can get today & colors you can get tomorrow. Well, on July 1st. Extreme Surfboard & all the single "Extreme Stamps" (Dirt Bike, Guitar,...
Before & After Stamp Organization
Ann & my favorite kids & I worked on cleaning out the stamp closet. On the left is the picture before. On the right, is the picture after we removed 68 retiring stamp sets. You can click on either picture to see them up close. I can assure...
