August Stamp of the Month

Well, it's down to the wire yet again because I was away last week doing this...

and yes, it was probably the worst weather week of the summer, hence the tarp. Barely saw the sun but I did get home in time to complete my 8th stamp of the month in a row. Yeah, me!

I wanted to use this intricate snowflake die from Memory Box and I'm not going to lie. It was a pain. Usually they go through the machine and cut very well but this particular one had some issues. The little snowman is glamour dusted and I popped my birdie up. Its a fun card and I like the purple tones.

I haven't picked out a sentiment, but I will add one when I send the card. So cute!

Delightful Inspiration April Stamp of the Month

Well, I just barely made it. The Challenge closes in a few hours and I really want to reach my goal of doing every Monthly challenge at Delightful Inspiration because not only is it fun but I get a free digi everytime I participate.
This month we were back to the Pigwit, who is "almost" as cute as the Birdbrain and since I needed a birthday card ASAP for a pig lover in the family, here's what I came up with.

I popped him up and quickly added a sentiment in the inside of the card. Whaatt! no diecuts. Nope, clean and simple this time and I think it works!

Here's the April Stamp of the Month set that I used...
