Pop Up Box Cards

It's Friday!! Hope everyone has fun plans for the weekend.  

I am going to visit family and celebrate my

 "grand" niece turning 2!!

I had two special little ones to make cards for this month.  My "adopted" grandson turned 1 on May 9th and my "grand" niece turned 2 today! Both of these cute little ones feel like my own grandchildren, so I wanted to make them a special card.  So I made the Pop Up Box Cards.  I just love these cards!

Here is sweet Korbin, I just have to kiss his checks every

 time I see him.  Too cute!

And Amya, she is such a little beauty!

Have a great weekend! Shelley

Family Collage

Hi! Hope everyone is having a great week!

This week has been busy at work and at home, seems like I can't get caught up.  But I am not complaining, I still love my job!! It is such a great place to work.

This is a 8x10 collage I made using Stampin Up stamps,

 paper and lots of punches.  

Have a great day ~ Shelley

Good-bye Papaya Collage

Hi! Hope everyone had a beautiful, relaxing weekend! 

Temperature was a little cool, but beautiful sunshine here.

These are 3x3 cards I made using the Papaya Collage stamp set that will be retiring at the end of the month.  This set has such great stamps in it.  I've  used the colors from the  2014-2015 In-color ink and card stock.  The envelopes were made using the Envelope punch board.  

These boxes were made with the Envelope board punch also, the cards fit inside the one with the butterflies.

Check out the retiring stamp list here

 and the retiring accessories here.  

New catalog will be coming in June!!

 You will LOVE the new products!!

Have a great day ~ Shelley

Make a Wish

We had such beautiful weather this weekend! Sunny and perfect temperature Saturday and Sunday.  I didn't get very much accomplished, I sat on my porch enjoying the weather and read a book. Then Sunday my son and his fiancé surprised us with a visit! 

It is that time of year again for Stampin Up's retired list.  We hate to see the products go, but it makes room for lots of new and fun products!  You can check out the retired list here.

The fun designer paper I used on this card is one of the items retiring, it is called Birthday Basics.  The stamp set is Perfect Pennants and the Banner framelits are available in the Occasions catalog.  

Have a great day! Shelley
