Across the Miles!

Hello! 
How was your weekend? 

We were pretty low key around this neck of the 
woods. But, we're excited to be seeing some warmer 
weather - so perhaps this coming weekend we'll go 
to the beach! Nothing like San Diego in the summer! (or fall 
or winter or spring - lol - I'm a fan!) 

Anyway I have a really cool card to share with you 
from our designer Laurel... 

Check out what she did with Across the Miles


She embossed the stamp over washi tape! 
How cool is that?!?

Check out her post for more info

Simple Saturday

Saturday is here and hopefully you'll find 
yourself crafting your little heart out! 

I've got some great (simple) inspiration 
for you! Kelley is just THE best at making 
a simple card look effortless.... (when we all know 
that 'simple' is sometimes the hardest 'look' to achieve!) 




Kelley really showcases the stamps 
and creates a card that looks like 
a stationary set that she bought! 

Amazing in all ways! 

I think that I'm going to try to do 
more simple - see if I can pull it off as 
well as Kelley does!

Check out Kelley's blog for more 
clean and crisp inspiration! 

And... check out 'Old Fashioned Afternoon' 

in the shop - HERE 


Happy Saturday!

Inspirational Tuesday!

Hey all! 

Still playing catch up around the shop - 
I didn't realize how much 'stuff' I'd return to :) 
But, we're seeing 'the light' lol. 


Today I have some inspiration for you 
and we're announcing the winner of the 
release week hop ... 

I wanted to remind all of you that 
we've extended our DT call another 
week... please check out the details 

Jamie is with us today showing off the cutest map 
card... 


I love this set and how she added the 
plane element! 




Check out Jamie and her blog HERE 


I made a couple cards this last week I wanna share 
here on the blog 



I used my Copic airbrush for this card 
and I LOVE how it turned out! 

I embossed and used glitter ... I forgot how much 
fun those 'extras' are! 



I send a lot of cards to my grandma and she's so 
good - she keeps them and displays them... and it 
got me thinking... I should start making my cards more 
like a 'frame' for a photo so when she displays the cards it's more 
like a mini album of sorts... So, from here on out all the cards 
I send to grandma will have a photo on them! 

A real life facebook :) For Grandma! 

Here are the sets I used to create 
these two cards



I used the heart border 
in the photo card.... I reach for 
that border ALL. THE. TIME!! 


From my airbrush card... I used 


And I used a little embellishment 
Love this set! 


Before we announce the winner 
I wanted to remind you that we have 
a set released in Paper Made Bakery's June 
kit that isn't in the Sweet Shop. 

It's called Cherry Blossoms -- 



Here is a card I made with the stamp set...


Be sure to head over to Paper Made Bakery
 for details on the kit and the new set! 

Check em out - HERE

whole June release?!?
