A pile full of scraps

You know when you a pile of scraps and your husband says you need to get rid of that, you are not using it. Well dang it, I’m gonna use them. See honey, I have to keep it all.

This love card was made back in February at our Simply Beautiful Card Class. It really was a simple card to make with just a bit of this and a bit of that. What have you made with your scraps?

2017 Sale-A-Bration

Avant Garden

March 19, 2017 inkyfingerssuLeave a comment

We have just two weeks left of Sale-A-Bration. I’ll be the first to admit, I did not like this set at all when I saw it. I thought the flowers were just ugly. However, I went a head and got the Avant Garden set because I mean who doesn’t love a free set! A few weeks ago, we had our monthly team Facebook pajama party. One of our challenges during the event was to create a card with a stamp set you have never used. Well guess what that meant, I had to touch them ugly flowers.

Well, I did. I created this card which actually was a big hit at our monthly Simply Beautiful Card Class.

Paper Pumpkin Love

March 7, 2017 inkyfingerssuLeave a comment

Have I told you how much that I love Paper Pumpkin? Every month I get a box of pure goodness delivered right to my door. What I love about the kit is that it comes with everything (but snips) you need to create your projects. The first kit you receive also includes a clear stamp block.

Paper Pumpkin Boxes

I’m not going to lie – there are times I let my kits stack up. Although the kits normally take about 30 to 45 minutes to complete. I might save a few kits knowing that I have a few days off or I have a day full of doctors appointments.

There’s a big surprise coming in April to Paper Pumpkin! The kit was inspired and designed by Stampin’ Up! CEO Sara Douglass. Don’t forget you can get a 3-month prepaid subscription (137859) for just $55 (a savings of $4) and instantly qualify for a FREE Sale-A-Bration item until March 31st!

Occasion Open House Make n’ Take

January 27, 2017 Inky Fingers Stamping1 Comment

I just realized with all the craziness going on the last few weeks, I hadn’t shared with you the make n’ take from our Occasion and Sale-A-Bration open house. It was a super simple card that could be easily mass produced in a variety of colors. I know this post is short, I promise to fill you in on all the happenings. I just have to say, I love, love, love Daper Denim and Peakaboo Peach together!
