Bug Day!

I got a new stamp set and paper from Stampin' Up! I've been having lots of fun with it today. I've been wanting this set for a long time. I figured it is well worth the money, since I have two boys. And when you think of boys, bugs just seem to come along with the thought.

I can't take credit for the idea behind this card. I acutally got the idea off of the Stampin' Up! website. This card was one of the reasons that I bought the set and all the paper/ink that was used for it.

This one was fun to make. Don't have a specific event/purpose for this one yet. But, I'm sure it will be nice to have it on hand.

We made these candy cards at a Stampin' Up! stamp camp that I went to on Friday night. I thought it was such a cute idea.

It opens up one time to show the "Easter Wishes"

And then opens up another time to show the candy. Yum!

I didn't have the Easter set that we used at the stamp camp. But, I thought it would be fun to use my new Bugs & Kisses set. Just to put my own twist on it.

These are so easy to make. Not quite sure what I want to use them for--I've already made a few. I originally thought about making them for Aaron's co-workers, but then decided it was probably too "girly". I might just use them for visiting teaching.

Mom H's Birthday Card


I went to Micheal's the other day and they were totally clearing out all of their old paper. The new paper that they are bringing in is so cute. When I saw this paper, I just knew that it would make a great card for my mom's birthday. I, of course, used the cuttlebug and cricut machines.

Mom's B-day card

I made this card for my mother-in-law's birthday. I used the cuttle bug--my new favorite tool. The flowered paper I picked up at Michaels on clearance and just got some solid coordinating paper to go with it.
