Today’s card uses the April Paper Pumpkin Kit stamp set. Sentimental Rose – everyone loves this kit! And I have to say I do too. With it’s DisInktive images and soft colors I can’t get enough of it.
So today’s card is made with the stamp set – I’ve added a second ink color, Brights Designer Series Paper stack, and note cards. Note cards are a great way for new stampers to begin since you have both the card and envelope in one pack!
Here is the card I came up with
Here is a quick video showing you how I put this card together
and of course a printable PDF too.

Today I had my team meeting and we had a great time sharing swaps – Our theme this month was masculine and they were all fantastic so I wanted to share them quickly with you today too.
This first card has been teamed up with the Letters for You Stamp set (141968) which is one of my favorite items that is retiring this year, since it is perfect for all kinds of projects including samplers.
And how about this card using our Retiring In Color Trqnquil Tide? It also uses our Water Color Pencils to color the muscle car – yep they aren’t just for water coloring.
And here is a lovely birthday card made using the Gate Fold with an added belly band – If you missed out on the Story Label Punch during Sale-a-bration good news, it will be available again when the 2019 Annual Catalog kicks off June 4th!
Recognize the sentiment? It’s from the retiring All That You Are Stamp set (148664) found in the Occasions Catalog on page 2.
And here is a beautiful card made with the retiring Up & Away Thinlits Dies (142748) that coordinates with the Lift Me Up stamp set (142893/142896) that is also retiring.
The beautiful background was done in Blueberry Bushel stamped. The retiring Marbled Background stamp (143755/144772) has been inked up and then stamped off first before stamping again onto the Whisper White layer to give it a softer feel.
And here is a fun fancy fold card using the retiring Country Livin’ stamp set (141922/141925) and our Well Written Framelits Dies (148534).
I love the way this card opens to hold a gift card or special sentiment. And do you recognize the die used for the Well Written sentiment? It’s the Lakeside Framelits Dies (146351) that coordinates with the Lilypad Lake stamp stet.
This next card was made using the Best Catch Bundle (150605) ad the Crackle Paint Background stamp (148755)
And how about this card made using the Let it Ride stamp set (148765) and the Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder (143708). Pat made it in honor of Derby Day this past weekend.
And the final swap card of the day uses the Butterfly Gala stamp set (148580) and Everyday Label Punch (144668).
Like I said it was a lot of fun swapping and sharing – We always stamp together, learn and share.
And of course there are always door prizes

Swapping at an OnStage event is a lot of fun – it allows me to meet my fellow demonstrators from around the country and share ideas. So today I’ll be sharing some more of the wonderful swaps I received in Charlotte.
Today’s cards all use the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (146926). This pack of papers is one of my favorites since not only is it heavier it has a beautiful pearl finish too.
These first two cards have been teamed up with the Layering Ovals Framelit Dies (141706).
Done in Tranquil Tide this card uses the Detailed with Love stamp set 146603/146606)and beautiful 3/8″ Mini Ruffled Ribbon (146948). And can you see the texture in the background created with the Ruffled Embossing Folder (143699)?
And this next card uses the Wood Words stamp set (143925/143928) for it’s sentiment.
And how about this card using the Amazing Life stamp set (148750) that is part of the Last Chance List?
And finally this card uses the Crafting Forever set (143955/143958) as it’s sentiment for this calendar card.
And would you like to see a couple of the 3d items I received in swaps at OnStage Charlotte?
This first one is a couple of small treat items –
The little Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper (146902) pouch was made with the Envelope Punch Board and holds a little pack of tic tacs.
And a fun diaper fold using the Cute Crew Punch Box (148535) it’s part of the Last Chance list.
If you have any questions about the Last Chance List please let me know. You can see all the items in my Online Store.

Here are a couple of more cards using the Needle & Thread Suite of products. I really like the way this first card uses the Old Olive Linen Thread and Vellum card stock that has been run through the Big Shot using the stitched die image to create lots of texture.
And this card from an OnStage swap highlights the Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper (148807) while using the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set (148807) and our Pretty Label (143715) and 1 3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch (146139).
And here is a fun 3d swap using the Needle & Thread Bundle and the Make a Difference (146676) and Thoughtful Banners stamp sets (Retiring 141614).
When you open it you can find a little sewing kit – how cute is that?
So what do you think? You can see all of these products in my Online Store – just check out the last chance list for the Needle & Thread Suite of products simply by clicking on the image below.
That’s it for the day – short and sweet. Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing more of my OnStage swaps with you.

Today’s cards were made with the Needle & Thread Bundle. This bundle includes some wonderful images and are part of our Distinktive stamps. So you get an image with depth and texture all in a stamp!
Who of us didn’t grow up learning the basic of sewing? I still remember sitting down and choosing my sampler design with my mom and pain staking learning how to get the thread where I wanted it verses the needle in my finger. I soon loved to watch those images filled in slowly and the feeling of achievement when I was done. Did you have a similar experience? Why not leave me a comment and tell me how you learned to sew below?
Any how, on to some wonderful cards – here are some swaps I received using the Needle & Thread Bundle.
The suite comes with a beautiful Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper (148807) and other accessories that tie things up beautifully. And did you know that this suite is part of the Last Chance List? So you can get it while supplies last. Click HERE to see the suite options in my Online Store.

Today’s projects were all part of this month’s Team Swaps – I love the variety of projects that my team always shares and so I wanted to share them with you too!
This first one uses the Tea Together stamp set (148779), Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies (148551) that you can find in the Occasions Catalog along with our Tufted Embossing Folder (146335).
If you love this card you’ll be happy to know if you didn’t get the coordinating Tea Time Framelits Dies for FREE during Sale-a-bration, they will be available again in June since they are part of the 2019 Annual Catalog. So you can get the set now and start stamping and then get the dies later!
And do you recognize where the word love is from? It’s from our Well Written Framelits Dies (148534) If you haven’t seen this bundle of products found on page 27 of the Occasions Catalog you’ll want to check it out. It’s a wonderful set of sentiments and dies that make up endless options.
This next card uses a favorite set of mine Dandelion Wishes (146744/146747)
along with the Subtle Embossing Folder (143706) – if you don’t have this folder you’ll want it since it adds just a touch of texture to any project! The pop of Lovely Lipstick matting this focal point is lovely with the Grapefruit Grove. A combination I wouldn’t have thought of.
And how about this fun Cross Over Gate Fold Butterfly Gala (148580) card?
I love the way it opens – I can’t wait to try this fold soon –
And now for the 3d projects – I always love the fact we can create great little gifts like these with paper and ink!
Easter is right around the corner and this little kiss basket is perfect
and this little basket made with our Scallop Tag Topper Punch (133324)

I loved the projects that came in the March Paper Box AND the additional stamp set too. What a great value and all the cutting and work was done for me all I had to do was assemble. Of course after that what do you do with all those goodies that are left over? Make something with them of course.
So today’s project uses the stamp set from the kit.
The kit came with the Poppy Parade ink spot so I started there – I added a couple of our great punch shapes and some Poppy Parade and Blueberry Bushel card stock.
So quick and easy to create a bunch of these cards. Check out my quick video tutorial

Today’s card is one that I made for this month’s birthday cards. I enjoy sending happy mail to my friends and family each month. I know that it’s a great feeling to go to the mail box and get something besides circulars and bills. How about you?
The Piece of Cake stamp set also has a coordinating Cake Builder Punch, but I didn’t use it for this card. Instead I chose to use my Stamparatus since it made stamping this project soooo easy.
Here is a quick video tutorial for you
