Swaps are a fun way to get cards made by others and to get inspired by their ideas. They also put me on a time schedule to get some cards make. So if you ever have the chance to do some swaps, take a chance and do so!

This unprecedented promotion by Stampin' Up! is half over.  For every $50 you order, Stampin' Up! will give you $5 in Bonus Bucks to spend in August.  Who doesn't like FREE stuff?   This promotion ends July 31 so grab your catalog and order now!  I ordered basic supplies that I always need --card stock, adhesives, embellishments!  If you order $150 worth, you'll receive 3 $5 coupons as well as $15 in Stampin' Rewards to use however you choose.  You could order a hostess set or any other set.  

When you order, Stampin' Up! will send you an email giving you the codes to use in August-- Don't lose this email!  Print it out and keep it somewhere safe!  Because if you lose it, you'll lose the bonus bucks!  Stampin' Up! can't resend the codes.

Here are 5 One Sheet Wonder cards made with a sheet of the "A Little Foxy" paper stack. One sheet of 6 x 6 paper! You could cut this out differently and make something else. And if you cut the paper into 4 pieces, they would fit beautifully on the fronts of 4 x 4 gift enclosure cards! And I was inspired by the umbrella in the My Hero stamp set (proceeds from this set go to Ronald McDonald House charities). Win, win!

BONUS DAYS are ongoing now!  From now until the 31st of July, you can earn FREE cash!  For every $50 in product spent, you'll receive $5 in Bonus Bucks to spend in August.  You'll receive an email (so make sure you give your email!) from Stampin' Up! that states "Congratulations!  You've earned a Bonus Days coupon!  You can use the code/s listed below at checkout for a discount on orders placed August 2-31, 2016.  We can't resend these codes to you so DON'T LOSE THIS EMAIL!  Print it, save it, write it down in 5 different places if you have to, because it would really stink if you missed out on these savings.

So shop now to get these great savings!  We all love FREE stuff!

Birthday card made using Detailed Floral Thinlits cased from Wendy Krause

Today is my Dad's 95th birthday and I made him this card. As a WWII vet and with a birthday so close to the 4th, I chose a patriotic color scheme. Join me in wishing him a very happy birthday!
