Stamp Off Decorative Mask Snailed It

 Susan, Buffy and I are hosting another Stamp Off

Challenge!  Today, our challenge is to use the Basic Pattern

Decorative Masks on page 146. 

I literally made 3 cards for this challenge, as I was on an

ick streak.  Sometimes, when crafting, you just can't get an idea

across the line.  Although garden slugs can be ick, a snail

from the Snailed It set (p 55) will always elevate a card!

The Snail Dies were used to create the silver foil frame and

sentiment.  The snail was colored with Stampin' Blends.

I think that you will totally enjoy the cards made by

Buffy and Susan, for our Decorative Masks Challenge! 

Wreath Builder Happy Easter

 This is the Easter card that I sent to a number of people.

I had to use Arrange a Wreath set (p 127) and the coordinating

Wreath Builder Dies (p 173), because this WONDERFUL 

bundle is retiring.  It makes me so sad because this is one of

my go-to products.  When using these dies, I usually put a piece 

of waxed paper between the die and the cardstock, so the cardstock

is easy to remove.  I cut the sentiment out with the 

Stitched So Sweetly Dies on page 127.

I hope that this week, culminating in Easter, is special

for you and your family.

Hey Chick Easter Card

 I need to post some Easter cards this week.  Of course, I had

to make a card using the Hey Chick set, with coordinating

Hey Chick Dies.  They really are perfect for that friend with

a strange sense of humor.  I paired it with eggs from the 

(soon to retire) Arrange a Wreath with coordinating Wreath

Builder Dies.   The Peony Garden DSP and the 

In Good Taste DSP (p 148) made good background layers.
