Just Because....

You are lucky if you have a friend or a sister or a mom that would appreciate this card!  The My Favorite Things stamp set have a variety of phrases to finish the word "because" - but this was my favorite.  Just because :-)

Join us this Wednesday, October 12 between 10 & 8:30 to make one of these for that certain someone.  It's free - and how could you possibly resist?

Anchor's Away!

Last week, we had some fun with the new nautical themed stamp set from Lawn Fawn.  But, we just couldn't help making more cards with this adorable and versatile set.  I love the added embellishment of the twine - so cute!

Stop in Wednesday any time between 10 & 8:30 to make one of these cards to share with someone who needs to know how special they are!

A Whale of a Good Time

Wednesday's FREE make-and-take features a "center-step" card design from Paper Cut.  The Impression Obsession dies are enhanced by the mini background stamps (also by I.O.).  These stamps were designed with dies in mind - the patterns are the perfect size for most die cut images. 

Beat the heat - stop in Wednesday any time between 10 & 8 and make one for yourself!

Watercolor musings

I always wanted to be a "real artist" - you know, the kind that wears a beret and waves a dripping paint brush around :-)  But I never could achieve the "carefree" appearance of watercolor.  My "overthinking" always showed through.  Thankfully, Impression Obsession understands my struggle!!!  I love their "watercolor wash" background stamp - the look I'm going for, without the beret!!!

Stop in Wednesday anytime between 10 & 8 to make one of these jaunty cards for yourself.  It is guaranteed to put a smile on the receiver's face!

A Little Birdie told me....

This is a quick and CUTE thank you card (of course, you could switch out the words and create a card for any occasion).  Change the color scheme, and it makes a lovely Christmas card as well!  VERSATILE!

Stop in Wednesday anytime between 10 & 8 to make one for yourself - FREE!

So Sweet!

Join us for our Wednesday FREE make-and-take anytime between 10 & 8.  This card is SO sweet!  The fox is from Hero Arts, and the die cut is from Mama Elephant.  You'll learn how to "ground" your image by using Pan Pastels to create a soft background.  Simple and lovely!  See you then!

Let Your Light Shine!

This is simply lovely - what a great "thinking of you" or "congrats" card.  I love the idea of a jar of light!!!

And, the washi tape creates the impression of a table cloth - easy and cute!

Stop in Wednesday between 10 & 8 and make this adorable card - you may even want to keep this little reminder for yourself! 

Non-traditional "congrats" card

Wednesday's FREE make-and-take card is perfect for so many occasions!  It is a happy, non-traditional card that could fill in for all kinds of "congrats" situations:  graduations, new home/moving, new job....the list is endless.

These adorable stamps are by Rubber Soul, and the card is further enhanced by the stitching details of the dies.  The cheerful decorative paper seals the deal!!!

Stop in any time between 10 & 8 on Wednesday to make one for yourself.  Once you see how cute (and how versatile) this card is, you'll want to make more to keep on hand!  Snag the stamps while you're here so you can do just that!

All Occasion Card!

The  FREE make-and-take features stamps and dies from Neat & Tangled.  This intricate die creates a space for the sentiment to really "pop"!  We used the Happy Mother's Day stamp (because timing is everything), however this set has several other options for you to select to personalize your card for that special someone!

Join us any time between 10 & 8 on Wednesday and make one for yourself.  If you've noticed this die before and wondered how to use it - this is your chance to see how quick it is to make a stunning card!  See you soon!

In My Thoughts

Sometimes a "get well" card is just not quite right.  This card lets that special someone know you are thinking of them, an the colors are soothing, too!  This card could also make an excellent sympathy card - and when you need one of those, you don't always have the time to set about coming up with a design.

Join us Wednesday between 10 & 8 to make this card for yourself.  If you agree that it's a good one to have on hand, snag a kit.  It comes complete with all the stamps, ribbon and paper to recreate the card 5 times (and the stamps you can use again and again). 

As always, the Make-and-Take project is FREE, and you don't need a reservation.  See you there!

Feeling grateful- Free Make and Take Card
