"Love Script"

 

The mini stamp set we have for you this month is

"Big Cupcake"

Welcome to day one of the hop!  For my first card I created a pocket to hold a tag and stamped the Pot with clovers to decorate the pocket.  


 Shown with the tag outside the pocket with a sentiment from the "Lots of Luck" stamp set.

A simple inside stamped with the large clover stamp.


For my second card I created a clean and simple design.  I wish "simple" could mean ....quick and easy! This took me hours of trial and error, playing around with stamp designs and papers before I finally decided on this!

A close up to see how cool this clover turned out.  The lines on this stamp make it easy to cut out, and fold to give lots of dimension! 

Please hop along to see the other fabulous projects my teammates have created for you and don't forget to leave a comment, you just might win today's stamp set!

  6. Your first card is so clever. I love the bright DP. And I agree that Clean and Simple does not not necessarily new Quick and Easy. But your CAS card turned out really pretty.

  26. I love these, particularly that second one! I love paper piecing, and I love paper tole, but I never think to combine them. That four leaf clover on the second card is genius! :)
