Life Happens... and it does!


I had so much fun with this stamp I decided to do a few variations of cards with him. Again this is a stamp from Stamp N Plus Scrap called boy w/star. It is one of the stamps from the Patti's Kids line.

The star is a great place to put anything you want to say. So today I chose Cheer Up after I chose the background paper of Life Happens, and it does.

I used my favorite shades of colors here too, blues and browns. I used my Copic markers to color the image. I chose 3 snaps for the finishing touch.

Hope you enjoy today's card. Please feel free to leave me a comment on what you think. I love to hear from you.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look. Tomorrow will be another Patti's Kids, but a different fun stamp. Come back to see who it is.

Happy Stamping :)

Something quick...

Just need a quick summer card and this is what I came up with. The stamp is from Stampin Up. The colors remind me of summer.

The card literally took under 5 minutes to make. These would make great invitations to a BBQ.

Thanks for stopping and taking a look. Please feel free to leave a comment as I love hearing from you.

Happy Stamping! :)

More fun with Patti's Kids....


How I wish I had a cat. I love cats, but i love the freedom of leaving home and not having to worry about animals. I guess you can't have it both ways.

This cat reminds me of one my mother-in-law had. He was a large grey cat that had a mind of his own. he would take off for days.

Stamp N Plus Scrap N has so many varieties of stamps it is hard to choose favorites. But, if I was to pick any it would be Patti's Kids and Iris Folding. This card is featuring another one of Patti's Kids. It is called Amy & Rascal. Rascal would have been a great name for my Mother-in-laws cat.

I used a grey paper that had texture to it and matted with the purple. I added the ribbon and two pearl hearts to finish it off. Amy and Rascal are done on vellum and colored with Stampin Up markers.

Hope you enjoy. Thanks for stopping. Love to hear from you.

Happy Stamping .... Tammylee

Time to think.....

I have had to do some hard thinking in the last few days. I just lost my grandmother and am responsible for the service. It really makes you reflect on your own life and how short it really is.

This card is just a simple but fresh card done with chalk. I prefer the powdered chalk as it is wonderful to work with. Just stamp your image in versamark and apply the chalk with a cotton ball. I love all the soft pastel colors with the burgundy card stock frame.

It makes me smile as I think about standing in the ocean next month and enjoying the sites. I can see me in this card. Maybe I can even get a photo of me doing just this.

Thanks for stopping by and looking. As always, I love to hear from you. So please leave a message and tell me what you think. Happy Stamping, till next time....

Lemonade anyone...


As I sit and look out my living room window, I can see the birds and the squirrels playing. Makes me wish for Spring even more. As the weather warms up here in Wisconsin, I think of what we will do this Summer. All the HOT days and COOL drinks. Oh how refreshing lemonade is on a hot summer day. Here is a little lemonade to get you in the mood. This is a great set of stamps from Stamp N Plus Scrap N.

Hope you enjoy... Tammylee
