My Little Helper

Stamping is more fun when you're not stamping alone!  And this is my stamper in training.  She's just two months old and already helping me put the finishing touches on her Noni's birthday card.  I see many more stamping days in our future!  :)

Point to the Birthday

We have a birthday in the family today so this one is in the mail (hopefully arriving in time).  It was an easy peasy one to make.  Not much stamping here.  But my desk is messy nonetheless and I couldn't find my Stamp-a-ma-jig imaging sheet, so it's just by sheer luck the sentiment is stamped straight!

Supplies
Stamps: Big Birthday Candle
Ink: Taken with Teal
Paper: Taken with Teal, Close to Cocoa, Sweet Pea DSP
Accessories: My Way Punch, Corner Rounder Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals

Cute as a Button

I'll admit I used some non-Stampin' Up! Sizzix dies on this one.  OK, just the alphabet.  But that's the great thing about the Big Shot.  You can use Stampin' Up!'s exclusive dies, but you can also get other Sizzix products to use with it as well.

Stamps: None (gasp!!!)
Ink: None
Paper: Certainly Celery, Almost Amethyst, So Saffron, Whisper White
Accessories: Big Shot, Sizzix Alphabet, Buttons Sizzlet, Crystal Effects, Ribbon Originals
