Beautiful card, Amy. I just love how the Stampin' Up! textured cs gives everything such an elegant look. Great layout, too.
Thinking of You
Just a really fast post today - I am heading out the door to run errands and then I have to get caught up around the house and whatnot as I have 3 people coming over to get their nails done (yay for that but that means it's going to be a LONG day!). This card uses all Stampin' Up! supplies - t...
What a beautiful Easter box. I love it. I really like the idea of the scriptures instead of candy or chocolate. This would be a fun thing for the family to do together!
Papertrey Ink Feb Countdown... Day 3!
Today I get to share with you a Papertrey Ink project that is very special to me. When Nichole first told us that we would be getting these fantastic egg boxes to decorate, my little creative mind went of course to Easter…but more so the meaning of Easter. Our family has such strong beliefs abo...
Beautiful card - so elegant. I love the new punches and that paper is something I am definitely going to have to have. It looks so gorgeous and touchable...ahhh, paper!
Lovely Leaves
Ohhh... CHA is getting SO close! I leave here on Sat. to fly down to Anaheim...and I'm in total rush mode getting packed for the show and the family vacation directly afterward. I decided to take a break from cleaning and packing to share this Lovely Leaves card that we will be making on day one...
As usual, super cute cards Amy. Love how the different hair colors on Anna-Mae makes her look totally different. Great job!
Anna-Mae's Valentine
I was in a real "Valentine-theme" moos yesterday - so I pulled out the new set from GinaK (her daughter Alicia illustrated this set!) called Anna-Mae's Valentine and started to color... I used Copic Markers to color in the main image, then stamped the sentiment along the side. The patterned pa...
Amy, I am so very sorry for your loss. We just lost a very dear friend to cancer and I know how tough it is for you and your family right now. Please know that you are in our prayers.

Difficult
I just wanted to post a quick FYI that I won't be posting on here for a day or two. My aunt passed away last night (11 pm Christmas Day) and I need to take a little break to get things together. Aunty Rosanne (my mom's younger (and only) sister) was diagnosed with ovarian cancer about a month ag...
Merry Christmas, Amy! I hope you and your family have a wonderful day. Hugs, Angi
Just wanted to say....
Merry Christmas everyone!! It's a little past midnight here and yup - we're wrapping presents as I type LOL! I can't wait till the girls get up - they were so excited at bedtime and went down so well b/c we told them Santa wouldn't come unless they went to sleep - and they did!! (I only wish ...
Hey Amy ~ I am thankful for my wonderful, healthy family, and to live in a mostly peaceful country. Take care. Angi R.

ATS Design Team
Sorry I don't have an official announcement to make yet regarding the new AllThatScraps Design Team! I just contacted the ladies yesterday that made it and am waiting to hear back from each of them before making the official announcement! I just wanted to say I had an unbelievably hard time choo...
I'm glad the stamps are die cut. I like my stamps cut close too, but it will be nice not to have to do it for a change since it looks like they did a pretty darn good job of it themselves. Thanks for showing them to us.
Fun Things
I had SUCH a good mail week last week! And I finally finished taking pics and editing so that I can share here too! First off - I got sucked into the vortex and ordered a Janome Sew Mini LOL!! It was on sale at Hancock Fabrics PLUS free shipping so I ordered it and sent it to Lauren who then m...
Wow Amy, you rock, girl!! What an awesome giveaway you're having! I've been wanting to get this set (Free, Of course with a big order), but just haven't gotten around to ordering it yet. I llove the pictures of your bathroom door..*wink*. Too funny, girl!!
So Many Sayings How To ------- and BLOG CANDY!!
So I've noticed lately that a LOT of people are posting about Stampin' Up!'s Level One set So Many Sayings - I had mentioned here and there that I cut mine apart to use, and I'm not alone!! EVERYONE is doing it and for a good reason - cutting the stamps apart makes them easier to use! I also had...
I'm glad to see you're stamping again Amy. You're cards are all wonderful, as usual! You do such a good job with your layouts and your coloring is beautiful. Thanks for offering the giveaway goodies. Angi Rankin

Wow! What a haul!! I'm looking forward to seeing your awesome creations very soon. You always have the cutest designs.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.....
Now that the song is running through my head I thought I'd pass it on to the rest of you!!! *evil grin* Wanna know WHY I feel like this?? THIS is why: My A Muse order is here!!! It didn't take much for me to use the FULL $250 gift certificate AND I paid for some more on top of it LOL! The box ...

Super cute card. I really like the layout and the colors. Great job, once again.
Special Wish
AURGH! I accidentally deleted everything I had typed up for this post just a few secends ago! That is beyond frustrating. So I'm just going to list the supplies as I really don't feel like writing it all up again (plus it's nearly midnight and I'm beat (which is prolly the reason why I deleted...
Amy ~ This card is just too cute! I'm really liking all the things you're coloring with your new Copic markers. Great job!!
Happy Prego Day?
LOL I don't know what I was thinking when I made this card for the AMAP Week 8 Challenge. It was late and I was in a wierd mood LOL! It was a super-quick card tho - no more than 10 minutes start-to-finish! The A Muse Maternity Dress was stamped and colored with Copic Markers, cut out and adher...
I just "discovered" Rubber Romance Diva's. They are so wonderful. Your card is beautiful. I really love the colors you used...heck, I like the whole darn card! Great job!!
Just Because
Here is another quick card I made using the other Rubber Romance Diva stamp (this time it's Janelle) that Lauren sent me. This stamp is HUGE!! And I'm told that a lot of the other stamps in this line are quite large too - so unless you're making bigger cards they take up quite a lot of space o...
Too cute, Amy! I've gotta get my hands on some Bellas. They are totally adorable. Oh, and I also talk to myself when I stamp...I thought that was a requirement...LOL!!
BubbleBella
I pulled out my Bella stamps today and am determined to use ALL the ones that haven't seen ink yet (there's over half a dozen sitting here that I've never used! How awful is that??). This first card I whipped up right before lunch (and I do mean whipped up - I only had about 20 minutes or so a...
I really like this card. The treats look so yummy!
Sweet Treats
I just got this Stampendous Tiers of Treats stamp in an order from ePaperie last week and last night I decided to make a card with it! I stamped it onto Bazzil Smoothies Coconut Swirl CS (I really do love this CS!!) with Palette Hybrid Noir ink, then colored it in with my Copic markers. I also...
Amy, you did such a great job on these frames! I love the colors. They'll go great with your Travis case. Thanks for sharing your awesome ideas with us!
Altered Amanda Frames
Our Internet went down last night (what a stressful 3 hours that was LOL!!) and while I was waiting for it to come back up I worked on these 2 Bare Elements Amanda frames that I picked up at Michaels (each during separate occasions using a 40% off coupon of course!!). The frames measure 12x1...
Amy, both of your cards are just too cute! I really like the first one alot...but I am a major coffee gal. Heck, I even work at Starbucks. You may think you need more practice with your new Copics, but your coloring looks really good to me. Awww...someday I hope to be able to afford some Copics or Prismacolor markers.
Fun With Color
While I was on the phone this afternoon with Lauren I was tidying up my desk (it seems the ONLY time my desk and studio get a decent tidying up is when I'm on the phone ROFL!!) and came across this scrap of patterned paper left over from the book I made the other night. Since it was a big scra...
Amy, I love your beach card. Adding the prisma glitter to the castle really makes it look like sand...great idea!
Sand Castle
When I got home from our vacation I had this wonderful parcel waiting for me with all the new GinaK Designs summer stamps inside!! WaHoo!!! Of course I had to use my new Hit the Beach papers as well (brace yourselves to see a LOT of this paper in the near future!! I keep reaching for it for EV...
I love, love, love the card and frame. I'm always looking for manly ideas for my dh and sons. These are fabulous!!
Anniversary Card and Gift

Your card is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration!
Ode to Julia
Have you seen Julia Stainton's tutorial on sewing on paper? I saw it yesterday and thought it was excellent. Her samples were just gorgeous! Toward the end she mentioned linking to it, and I knew that I really wanted to pull out my sewing machine and give a Julia-card a whirl. I've sewn on ...
Nice tutorial and I love your card designs! I'm glad you're feeling beeter from your hectic week.
Ribbon Tying
OK I hope this works!! If you have dial-up this little clip may not work for you (or it may take FOREVER to watch - it's only like 19 seconds long. I've been promising my customers for MONTHS now to post how **I** tie my ribbon on my cards and now here it is (finally!!) I wanted the video to...
