You all can hear this girl giggle and laugh!! It is seriously the cutest thing! This was her look each time a horse drawn carriage passed by in Bruges, Belgium. She would laugh so hard and I kid you not, everybody around her would look and comment on how adorable she was.
This child is full and I mean FULL of personalities!!!
Launch Day
Posted on | April 5, 2012 | 2 Comments |
Maybe today I might see the Queen… but just maybe…
It’s launch day at WPlus9 and if you’ve been liking everything that we’ve shown you, do stop by their store and stock up on some quality and wonderfully designed stamps, dies and embossing folder today (before they run out and you’ll have to wait). The April/May products have been really fun (and I am not just saying this) and I feel so so privileged to be able to play with them sooner than the majority.
Stop by Dawn’s blog to see what the other DTs have created on launch day and in the mean time, I am going to see if I can get a glimpse of HRH Queen Elizabeth II {::SMILES}.
Day 4: Background Stamping
Posted on | April 4, 2012 | 2 Comments |
Hi again!! It is now one more day until WPlus9‘s April/May release and for today’s card I thought I’d try to do some background stamping with Background Builders: Knit. Oh, before I start, let me tell you one little thing that I found… Stampin’ Up’s white card stock, the one I didn’t quite like as much when I first got it (it’s just not the old SU white thick card stock that I have been accustomed to) is now cool again. While I still think the old thicker one’s better, this newer one is great in a different way: Background stamping! The smoothness of the paper is making the ink stick better — makes the colors, even yellow, look crispier.
I was, still am, very pleased with how this card turned out. I love the vibrant colors and the simplicity!
This post is super short and sweet but before you go, please visit the other DT’s work and see what they have to share with you today!!

The last few days we have been taking the grandparents and auntie to places around us. Today we will be enjoying some fresh English breakfast and then a trip to M’s gym. M can’t wait to show them her gymnastics skills {::SMILES}.
For my card, I have a little textured and layered card that I created using more new stuff from WPlus9:
- is a 4×6 clear photopolymer stamp set
- contains 9 stamps; 1 frame, 6 sentiment builders, and 2 accent images
- will be available for purchase April 5th
- coordinates with the Label Layers 4 stamp set

- will be available for purchase April 5th
- 5.75″ x 4.5″ double sided steel impression plate
- made in the USA
- will be available for purchase April 5th
Like? I do!! Actually, I LOVE all the new WPlus9 releases for April/May!!
I need to go but if you have time, do see what the other DTs have to share with you!
Day 2: CAS
Posted on | April 2, 2012 | 5 Comments |
After all the splattering and random stamping that I did yesterday, I thought I’d share a more standard card, clean and simple, today.
For this little number I used another new stamp set by WPlus9, a set that will be perfect for the man or dad in your life. This particular card is actually one I created for Emma to give to her daddy. M loves to make her own cards but now and then she likes it if I make her a card to give to her friend, daddy or sister.
When creating this card I had the hubby in mind. He’s not complicated and he’s a manly man, so something slick like the above would be something more to his liking. For this inside I added this huge “Dad”. I did this for two reasons, one because it’s perfect — fits the sentiment out front — and second, so that M wouldn’t feel like she has to come up with a lot to write. It’s not that I don’t like her to write a lot but when she feels like she has to, her handwriting gets extra large and sloppy {::SIGH}.
The last bit is the most special part though. WPlus9′s new Onsie Two-sie has these two little itty bitty stamps, a heart and a monkey face. These two little stamps are just perfect for M because at home, we sometimes call her our little monkey. The monkey comes from the fact that she was born on the year of the monkey and also because she likes to climb and hang around like a monkey (it’s why gymnastics is perfect for her).
Emma LOVES this little bit. She felt like the two stamps were made for her — her little signature {::SMILES}!!
Fun fun fun!
That’s it from me but do visit the other DT’s work and see what everybody has to offer with the new goodies from WPlus9:
