Sometimes you just have to play.
Like when I got this month’s Studio Calico kit with an exclusive stamp set from Lawn Fawn. It has the cutest heart and rays… making me want to play right away…
And that “hello sunshine” piece? It is wood veneer from the kit, just colored black. All the papers are from the kit, too…
Quick and easy to put together. That is the joy of kits! (For more information on SC kits, go HERE.)
Is it sunny where you are? Hope so…

Just go HERE to join the card kit waiting list by 1/31/13 midnight EST. (You will need to sign in (or create a new user account) in order to join the list. While supplies last. Not valid on previous purchases. Free paper pads will be shipped right away for free. The first kit you will receive is March as February will sell out quickly.)
You can find the current kit HERE – it is a good one! (That exclusive stamp set looks awesome. Love the “let’s stay connected” and the script “hello” so very much!)
Their design team always creates incredible samples! I enjoy kits – they make creating so much easier…
I am so excited to give away a THREE month Studio Calico card kit subscription to a lucky winner! Just leave a comment here by Tuesday at 11:59pmEST for your chance. Good luck to all.
(Oh, and the winner of the Color Cubbies is Rebecca Ednie.)
Hello!
Today I am a guest over on the Studio Calico Blog. They now have a Card Kit each month with fun products – all with the modern yet playful Studio Calico look. The colors are delicious! All of these cards were created with their Block Party Card Kit. To see the full project images, head HERE to their blog.
First up, I used a small plaid stamp from the exclusive kit stamp set to create the flowers and borders here…
I just can’t seem to get enough of pool!
In this kit there is the cutest little dotted 6×6 patterned paper. I adore it. I changed it up a bit by making some of the white dots bright blue – love modifying patterned paper…
Here is a fun one showing that you can change up the look of an embellishment (a chipboard and fabric sun) with a stamped image (a smiley face). There is that cute dotted paper again! Oh – that chevron strip is actually cut from some of the fab packaging in the kit…
And finally, I used the incredible Studio Calico Opaque Gems for little balloons on this next one…
By the way, THESE are those great opaque gems – they are awesome…
If you are interested in the Studio Calico Card Kits, just head HERE for more information. They also have great scrapbooking kits and now Project Life kits, too!
Thanks for stopping by!
Just a quick share. I had a few people email me about this card from Paper Crafts Holiday Cards and More. (By the way – this is a great issue!) So I thought I would share it here…
Yum yum yum I love those wood veneer stars! I just colored them with markers and assembled them into a tree.
Speaking of Studio Calico…
Heads up! A lot of the new products from Studio Calico are now ready to hop into your hands (as they did mine). You can find them all HERE, but here are my favorites. The stamp sets, fabric covered thickers (great for inking) and wood veneer shapes are great…

Hello!
I have (another) quick sunshine card for you. I am not sure why so many of my cards have suns these days. But it sure does make for a cheery card…
Lovin’ these fabric-covered-chipboard shapes from Studio Calico. How fun! I just colored the sun with a marker and I was set…
And THIS background stamp is fun. Big enough and square so you can stamp it horizontal or vertical. Oh, and you can’t really see on the pool paper – it is herringbone. Yum…
Oh! And Kick Start starts tomorrow (Monday) but you can join anytime…
And I have 3 winners who will get a spot in the class! Maxine, Karin V z and Valerie B… I emailed you.
See you soon.

Hello!
I am a stamper. First and foremost. But sometimes it is fun to create without a stamp. (Yes, I said it!)
This card uses no stamps – just some of my favorite embellishments…
Here are the goodies I used:
Speaking of the Stardust Glitter Ritz glitter. A few people asked how it compared to regular silver glitter. The color difference is subtle, but it has a warn, vintage tint to it. That’s Stardust on the left and another normal silver glitter on the right…
Yep, sometimes creating without stamps is fun. Have you tried it? Would love to hear what your favorite non-stamping goodies are.
See you soon. (And likely with stamps in hand!)
Oh la la! You know how much I love dies and Simon Says Stamp just released a bunch of new good exclusive ones HERE!
So in love with THIS one that makes little stars and hearts to scatter on a card.
And THIS makes me giddy…
Lots of good stuff you can do with THIS one…
Oh, and I guess I couldn’t get away without talking about a stamp set, huh? Check out THIS new one…
Again, be sure to check all the new ones out HERE. Happy shopping!
Below are the supplies used for the card above. To find them at Simon Says Stamp, click on the SSS below the thumbnails. For Ellen Hutson, click on EH…
