A Good Egg


Today I got out this cute Easter set and stamped a quick card. I used only this stamp set to stamp the paper (no DSP) and to stamp the sentiment. Watch for more Easter cards this week, and some new sets that go on sale tomorrow.

Happy Stamping

Sweet Little One


I made this cute baby card using Stampin' Up Punches, and a sizzix die. I took the scallop circle punch in pink pirouette and cut it in half then cut one half in half. Next I used the eyelet border punch and attached it to the top of the bottom scallop. I used two circle punches for the wheels, and I took a piece from the swirls scribble die to make the handle. I really love how it turned out and I know that the new Mom is going to love it.
