I Brake for Autumn Acorns!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Welcome to my I Brake For Stamps post.

It's Fall y'all!  Today I'm actually out touring the wineries of Cayuga Lake in upstate N.Y. with some friends from Canada.  They've never been to a winery so we figured what better to do on a beautiful day like this!

On that note...I have a Fall themed card to share with you!

The second I saw this stamp I fell in love with it. (and wondered how I didn't notice it sooner)  The image is called JUMBO ACORNS.

On the inside I used a sentiment from the collection of verses called EVERY DAY PHRASES.

Here's a close up of the image.  I tried to color the leaves in a variety of fall colors like I'd see in my yard.

I Brake For Christmas Joy!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a Christmas card with you.  I've used two stamps from I Brake For Stamps.  The first one is called CARDINAL BORDER and the other is ELEGANT JOY.

I used a mask to make it look like the cardinals are sitting on top of the Joy verse.

It was colored with Copic markers and I used a Spellbinders die to cut the matte.

I Brake for Wild Irises!

Hello and happy Saturday!

I've been on a major flower kick lately.  I think I'm just ready for Spring. 

Today I'm sharing a birthday card with you.

I used WILD IRIS from I Brake for Stamps!

I kept this one fairly simple.  Simple layout, a ribbon and few rhinestones.

I Brake For Pretty Poppies in Green!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing another card that I made using the beautiful

 CALIFORNIA POPPIES BORDER.

 I love the way the lime green made the poppies pop!

No pun intended...though I do love puns.

I used two different sentiments on the inside...

SENDING SMILES

and 

BOTANICAL.

K Cup coffee gift from Art Impressions

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing another coffee creation to go along with the current challenge over at Art Impressions.  I used the stamp set from Ai called Cafe (Sku#3516).

I used a clear takeout box for my gift box.

There's a verse from the set on top of each little K Cup.

When you open up the card top you can personalize the inside.

I used another Ai stamp called Window - Front & Back (Sku#L1745) on the inside.

This little container was perfect for 4 K Cups with
some shredded paper to hold them in place.

You can open up the window to see more of

the stamps from the Cafe Window set.
