This is my newest stamp set from Flourishes.org.  I just love the daintiness of this -- great for a young girl or someone older.  I'm sending this to my sister, who is a princess. 


Check out the website, Running with Scissors, as Leslie uses several Flourishes stamp sets and does such a beautiful job of inspiring us all.

Using this StampinUp stamp set, I stamped it on photo paper to give it the painted look. Then I added a little Sakura Star sparkle to the flowers.

This is a guy card, one that I really like.  This little guy can project either happy or sad thoughts.  I used just a small section of ribbon.

I tried to show a close up of the Sakura Purple Star on the butterfly, but it doesn't do it justice.  Trust me, the pen gives the butterfly a pick-me-up.
I love butterflies.  They are so elegant on cards.  I used two different Nestabilities on this one.  In additon, someone sent me a sample Sakura Purple Star pen, which I used.  I hope you can see it.  I will try to show a close up view.  It gives the card pazzaz.

Love this Stampin Up stamp set in which I used the tiny leaf in many colors.  You can make a summer, winter or fall wreath using this same little stamp using  different colors from your stamp pad with a little embellishment.  Fun card to make.

I don't usually put green and red together other than Christmas, but thought I would try with the Nestabilities circle.  I love this little rose stamp from Stampin Up.  Should have made it red, white and blue for the 4th!

One of my grandsons is celebrating his 9th birthday, so I made this fun card for him -- bright and colorful. I love using that cuttlebug.  So many fun things to do with it.
