I know I haven’t posted any new projects for a while. I do have some things in the works. I will be making some horse themed wedding invitations for my friends that are getting married on horse back. As soon as my stamps from TAC get here I will be posting those. I bought some make your own postcard paper from the craft store. It is water color paper. My plan is to stamp some images with my TAC stamps and them paint them with my water colors. I will be posting about that too. So keep checking back!

Happy Spring card
I know that in some areas (like my house) spring still looks far away. It really isn’t that far off. It is time to order your spring stamping supplies. Remember Easter comes early this year. Are you ready to scrapbook those egg hunt photos?
My Valentine’s Day card
I made this card to give to my DH. I hope he likes it!
Supplies:
Red and white card stock
Red ink ( I used my red impress marker)
Embossing stamp pad
Clear embossing powder
Stamp sets:
curls & swirls (t-2773)
I love you stamp from set T-2144. Words that you like will do.
Cut and fold the red card stock for your card base. I cut the white to be 1 inch smaller than the red on each end. So you will have about a half inch of red showing behind the white. The I stamped the white with a stamp from the curls & swirls set in red. Then on a smaller piece of red card stock I stamped I Love You with my embossing pad and embossed them with clear embossing powder. I didn’t have a hart shaped stamp so I folded a piece of white card stock in half and cut a hart out. I stamped it with a different stamp for the curls & swirls set. I used my heat gun to set the ink so it wouldn’t come off on my embossing pad. Then I pressed the hart into the embossing pad to get it all covered. I used the clear embossing powder on the hart to give it some shine.
You can order all the supplies for this card at my TAC site. These kind of cards don’t have to wait for Valentine’s Day. Show someone you love them on other days too!
