Just ROLL with IT!

Everyone loves a good pun, and this one by Paper Makeup Stamps just cracks me up :0)

This rolling pin and coordinating sentiment are from the April release. Too FUN! I was wondering who I would give this to??? . . . a BUNCO friend, one of our bowling friends, . . .it would be perfect with a plate of baked goods :0). Hmm not sure yet, any suggestions?

This card uses that yummy Grandma's kitchen line of papers from WE R Memory Keepers - perfect for that nostalgic feel and looks even yummier when aged with distress inks.

Have a happy Tuesday -

Paper Makeup Stamps April Blog Hop

Happy Hump, I mean HOP day!! If you're coming from Lisa K's blog and you've made it this far then you're at the very last stop!! But if you haven't hopped your way through, make sure you go back to the PMS Blog and start there so you're sure not to miss anything :0)

I'm so excited to introduce you to DUNCAN (as in Mr. Hines)!!

Isn't HE the sweetest?! I paired him with a coordinating sentiment that is also being released this month. I know you've seen some great apron stamped cards, but I decided to make an apron shaped card. I'm not sure Duncan could wear an apron however, he seems to be a little low waisted :0) .The template was created by super talented and my fav Anna Wight.

To stay with the vintage-y feel of the apron I used WE R Memory Keepers - Grandma's Kitchen paper -perfect. And the buttons are actually from my DH's grandma's stash!!

I'm sure you've heard it before, but the PMS release party is tonight in the forum, so stop on by for some fun. And don't forget to collect your letters along the hop to spell out your discount code.

THANKS FOR HOPPING WITH US!! HOPE YOU HAVE A SsssssUPER SssssWEET DAY!!


P.S. If you like the apron shaped card you can download a free template of it from Sweet Miss Daisy here!!

Go Hawks!

Here come the Hawks . . .the mighty BLACKHAWKS!!! I'm so excited that the Chicago Blackhawks won their 1st playoff game in 7 years last night to the Calgary Flames. We were at the game and it was unbelievably awesome!! The energy in the crowd was so exciting I got goosebumps just thinking about it and my voice has all but left me!

I was inspired by their win and a very simple and quick card my friend Katie made to come up with this card. So simple it took me maybe 7-10 minutes from start to end. It would probably have taken longer except for the fact that my sewing machine was already set-up threaded and just waiting for me - LOVE THAT! The middle flag is actually cut out and popped up on a dot. The 3 flags are one $1 bin stamp set, and the sentiment is from another $1 bin stamp set. I thought this would make a cute grad card or team win card. TFL, have a great weekend and root root root for the home team!! Go Hawks!
