Yup, you know it's Sunday because I'm finally posting again for another Red Hot Stamper's Sketch challenge.  I had to think a little bit for today's card, but I knew I wanted it to be for a bridal shower because my niece is here from out of state and we have a shower for her today.

Lovely as a Tree Father's Day Card

Today's card is another one I did for my May stamp a stack and not only did this set stay in the new catalog, but starting June 1 you can also purchase it as a clear mount!  Yes, I LOVE the clear mount stamps...so much easier to see what you're stamping.  Anyway, I was busy checking out cards for ideas when I saw this card from Tamie.  I liked it so much I had to case it...I just changed the colors.  You can check out her card and visit her blog here.

Today's card is one that we did at my May stamp a stack and it was a pretty easy card to whip out.  I only used one stamp set, one ink pad and three colors of card stock.  No cutting little things out, punching, embossing or using the Big Shot...not that I mind any of that stuff, but it sure may my prep work easy!! Yup, just sponging and stamping.  Oh, and the ladies told me my cards were pretty easy to do this time!  That was nice to hear. :)  I love this set and was so glad they carried it over to the new catalog!

Mother's Day Cards

Well, it's been a bit since I've posted, but we had to leave town for a few days.  Now it's time to play catch up!   I have a feeling with a stamp a stack and school coming to a close with an open house to get ready for my poor blog is going to suffer.  I just keep telling myself, "Just a few more weeks!" and I have all summer to play. :)  Anyway, these are the cards I made for my mother and my mother-in-law for Mother's Day last Sunday.  I saw a few beautiful lattice cards by Michelle here a while ago and thought they would make great Mother's Day cards.  Thanks for the ideas Michelle!
