I finally used my Tart and Tangy stamp set. I really didn't like the stamp set at first, but when you put them with the matching DSP, Summer Picnic, they are very nice looking cards. I may do a class in the future with this set because it is so easy to use.

Spring Card and Candle

I made these things at the beginning of this month. Sorry it is taking me so long to get things posted on here. I made this card and candle for my next door neighbor's birthday. The card I made I used a technique that someone else figured out how to do. I printed the instructions, but I don't know the blog that it was from. If someone else knows, you can comment and tell me. I will edit this post and give them the credit for it.

These are the SU! products I used to make these things.

So don't stop looking I have more to come. I am sorry it takes me so long to put things on here. I need to work on that. Anyways, thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.
