Rooting for you!

 Hello all! I was away for a week on a cruise but now I'm back and bloggin! Today I'm sharing two very fun cards that feature the Spellbinders Stitching Die of the Month (pro tip - you can use these dies without stitching just as well).


I'm squealing at their cuteness! I really do love these dies and the cards. The little eyeballs are a perfect addition. You may know that I like to have stories with my cards, so the story here is just each veggie side-eyeing the next wondering who will be picked first. Are they excited or anxious? You decide.


All of the cardstock used is from the beautiful ColorWheel collection. The sentiment, "I couldn't have picked a better friend," is from one of my favorite Hero Arts collections called In the Orchard. And what do you think of my dirt?! I splattered the brown cardstock with both Black and Brown Speckle Ink.


Yes, this one has a story, too! If I had a good hand-shaped die, I would have included a hand picking the little onion. The onion is getting picked while the beet watches on, in what I can only assume, is horror 🤣


I hope you enjoyed these cute cards and their little stories!

April My Monthly Hero - Plant Lady Society 🪴

Happy April and no foolin here. The April My Monthly Hero kit just dropped and it's sooooo much fun! I have 5 (FIVE!) cards to share in this post, so hang tight...


I saw that greenhouse die in the main kit and, well, I had to make a greenhouse! The kit comes with both a solid background die and a separate frame die, so it made it very easy to create this shape card. And so you know what I'm talking about, here is a photo of everything included in the My Monthly Hero April Kit...


Everything on my greenhouse card (except the sentiment) is from the single greenhouse die set. All of the different plants... and the cat! I really love this. Immediately after creating this card I mailed it to my mom for her birthday and she absolutely LOVED it. She is a plant and cat lady at heart 🪴🐈


My second card with the MMH kit uses the fun and unique stamps from the House Plants stamp and die set. I really loved the funky head/face plants and wanted them to stand on their own.


I stamped and colored every single image in that dang stamp set! I also ink splattered the background to add a little texture and let the focus land on those head-shaped plants.


Now for the third card using the MMH kit...


As I mentioned above, I loved this stamp set and colored every single image. I thought it's be fun to use the watering can to "grow girl" that face plant. Of course, I used my favorite Postage Stamp Infinity Dies and the background is stamped with the Whimsy Floral cling stamp with Unicorn White Ink.


Ok now it's time to share a couple cards with the My Monthly SUPER Hero Kit! The super hero kit gives you THREE extra sets in addition to the main kit...


The first card with the Super Hero kit follows the same idea of the watering can in my card above...


There are soooo many beautiful flower dies included with the super hero kit. If you're a flower lover, you absolutely need it!


How cute is that watering can? I love the look of the flowers sprouting out of it and pouring flowers. 


Now this is my final card! I went crazy die cutting all the gorgeous flowers. I wanted to add so many to the vase that this card had to turn into a slimline, measuring about 6" tall. 


Almost all of the cardstock used for these is from the Colorwheel collection, and all dies are cut using my trusty Spellbinders Platinum 8.

In My Heart Collection - Best Mom Ever

 It's time for a new Simon Says Stamp release! This release is called In My Heart and I'm showcasing a card that features the "Thanks, Mom" stamp set...


The sentiments are perfect for an anytime card, a birthday, mother's day, thank you's etc etc. I love a multi-use set! I used the "Best Mom Ever" sentiment heat embossed in white. Fun fact! March 19th is my mom's birthday!! So I turned this into a celebratory card to send to her.

The Layered Party Hats Stencil really pulled this card into the birthday theme for my mom. It is a 4 layer stencil that I inked with Concord and 9th inks: Ballet Slippers, Fig, Lakefront, and Grapefruit.


The sentiment was embossed on the Lakefront Cardstock that was cut from Eyelet Ovals Dies. I also layered a larger Eyelet Ovals die with white glitter paper.


Happy birthday, mama!!!
Oh, and happy half birthday to me 😀
