Love

I made this Valentine's Card for my Sister (hoping to get ahead of the game for this year's Holidays).  I'm entering it into the Simon Says Stamp and Show "Red Letter" Challenge.
My Sister isn't crazy about busy or cluttered cards so I tried to keep this simple.

The Products I used are:

Bo Bunny Father Christmas Collection Papers

Hero Arts Clear Stamps- Lauderdale Floral Basic Grey

Ranger Distress Ink - Winter Limited Edition-Festive Berries

Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher Stapler

Spellbinders- Label Nineteen Nestabilities

Textured Red Cardstock, Beige Seambinding, Beige Half Pearl from my Stash

Thank you for looking!

Stripes

Over on the Simon Says Stamps Challenge Blog we were asked "Spots and/or Stripes".  I love both but chose to work with stripes for this project, patterned stripes to be exact :-)
I made this Mini Legal Pad Holder for a friend of mine using K&Co Patterned Paper from the Life's Journey 12x12 Paper Pad, Solid Cardstock from the Recollections Signature Cardstock "Holiday" 12x12 Pad, Spellbinders Labels Nineteen Dies, Basic Grey Half Pearls and a Petaloo Flower. 

Thanks for looking!

How wonderful of Linda over at L3 Studios Blog to make this week's Challenge all about Sir Tim Holtz and his Birthday!  Tim brings so much joy into the lives of us crafters with his Techniques and Tutorials, his fabulous products, his generosity and his special personality. It's only fitting that we show him how much we love him by sending him a handmade card for his special day.  I created this card using Club Scrap Cardstock, Paper from Tim's Lost and Found Paper Stash, Tim's Tattered Banners Die, Tim's Gadget Gear Die, Tim's Vintage Lace Die, Distress Inks in Gathered Twigs, Rusty Hinge, Pine Needles, Iced Spruce and Aged Mahogany, Perfect Pearls Mist in Copper, Tim's 3 Gentlemen from his Visual Artistry Rubber Stamp set and some Martha Stewart Glitter.
