I don't often send out wedding themed cards. With that being said, when I do I want them to be unique and elegant. This sweet Bride Mona from La-La Land Crafts is the perfect image. In the La-La Land store there is also one with a groom too. How perfect is that?! Creating this Card I wanted to make it...Read More

I am a sucker for a great lighthouse stamp. This NEW Beach Lighthouse rubber stamp, by Whimsy Stamps, with all its detail was such a joy to color. The detail makes it even easier. I colored this up with lavender bushes surrounding a red lighthouse because that is where I want to be. Don't you want to see this place?...Read More

This disease has taken so many of our loved ones. I always rejoice when I hear that someone has fought the battle and won! The proceeds from the sales of this...Read More

A Day to Play

Posted on February 21, 2019 by JenniferDove

Taking a Moment! Sometimes you just have to say NO to what you should be doing, and say YES to hanging with the girlfriends. That is what I did. My bestie Lois had friends over and we decided to do an impromptu Copic class and color up an image or two and then make them into cards. So, that is...Read More

You are My Hero!

We need more heroes! Hooray for those that take that step to either be a public hero or a private hero. Either way it effects those that are the recipients. My hat goes off to our heroes! I had some coloring therapy this morning using one of the amazing Stamping Bella stamps. I am a huge fan of those Oddballs...Read More

Rustic Pinecone Holiday

This Pine Bough is a very popular stamp. I stamped and colored it 3 times to create dimension and then added it to the NEW Woodgrain Background. Chipboard Elements from Make It Crafty I love using the Pine Bough, I think this is the most popular of the DoveArt stamp line as it is so versatile throughout the year. Woodgrain...Read More

You know how I love to try to find ways to combine images? Well this one was super fun to not only combine this versatile Heart Tree with Teddy Bear Hugs, but also turn it into a shaker card. I think I am going to get a bunch of use out of the tree stamp! They are now available through...Read More

Meow at the Moon

It is release week at Whimsy Stamps and I have a fun card to show you. I combined two different stamps to create this window card. Using Kitty 'n Pumpkin and Web Background I created this card front. I used a circle die to cut out the opening and make the kitty appear like he is poking out in front of...Read More

Here is a little inspiration for you using the Apple Branch from Whimsy stamps. This delicious stamp is refreshing to color and can be colored so many different ways.

Pumpkin Patch Friends and More

Posted on August 3, 2018January 10, 2019 by JenniferDove

Here is another fun combo. Pumpkin Patch combined with Penguin Spook Nite makes a nice autumn scene dont you think? I decided to color the pumpkins (some are hidden) in non-traditional pumpkin colors. Then I colored up the Penguin, cut him out and popped him on top. Copics: Y38 YR04 YR09 E41 E43 E44 E47 BV0000 BV00 BV02 BV04 BV08...Read More

The Canoe

Posted on August 2, 2018January 10, 2019 by JenniferDove

Look at this stunning stamp! Ok, maybe I am a little bias. I think this makes the perfect card for those outdoorsy people or a masculine card. I had a lot of fun with this stamp and event took it a step further and fussy-cut out the trees to make it pop up. I cant wait to see what you...Read More

Fall Fun

Posted on August 1, 2018January 10, 2019 by JenniferDove

This fun combo is from the Whimsy release this month. I combined the DoveArts Apple Basket and added "Honeycomb" (an Elizabeth Bell stamp also sold through Whimsy). I cut her out and cut a slit in the top edge of the basket to slip her in. I think it is the perfect combination. Whimsy Honeycomb Whimsy Apple Basket Whimsy Stitched...Read More

Swoon!! I just love Panda Bears don't you. Something about the pattern of the fur. Well this little sweetie bear is from Whimsy Stamps. Originally I had planned to do a baby card with a pastel color instead of the gray blend...well oops...I started applying the grays without event thinking about it. Instead of starting over again I just kept...Read More

Have F-U-N!

Posted on July 5, 2018January 10, 2019 by JenniferDove

Squeeeee! When I first started creating the idea for this card I was feeling blah about it...it was cute, yet so plain and simple. Starting out with the fabulous new Fireworks stencil I airbrushed the background. I then stamped the Gingham Background for the lower portion. Next I cut out the F-U-N with the NEW Bold ABC die set. That was...Read More

Do It Different

Posted on July 2, 2018January 10, 2019 by JenniferDove

As you might know I like to think outside the box. For this card I used the newly released Harvest Wreath from Whimsy combined with Penguin Holiday Squares in a wintery theme instead of a more autumn theme. I am super thrilled with the results and just shows that you can use stamps for many seasons if you think outside the...Read More
