It's blog hop day for Clearly Digi Stamps!

Yeah, it's blog hop day!  Have you noticed that Clear Dollar Stamps has a new name and a new store?  We are now called Clearly Digi Stamps and the new store is just great!  The the month of May we are celebrating flowers for our hop.  Are the flowers blooming at your house?  The tulips are just beautiful at mine. =)  If you just stopped by to see where I have been the whole month and are wondering well, life has been just so busy.  I know you all know the feeling.  But, I feel like I am back - yeah.  So to start the hop off on the right foot you should have come from the wonderful Jerusha's Blog.  If not, you will want to start over at the Clearly iStamp Blog.  For my card this hop I have used the Bugs and Blooms set.  Isn't this little guy just too cute.

You can win this digital set for free from my blog just by leaving me a comment.  I will choose a random winner from all of you.  So now to continue the fun hop on over to Dee's Blog.  Have a wonderful day!

Digital release day at Doodle Pantry

Happy May Day.  It's snowing here so it isn't feeling at all like May 1st.  Today is digital stamp release day at Doodle Pantry.  Laurie has 9 new sets being released today.  I have used the set called Fruitful Star.  If you follow Doodle Pantry you will know there have been several star sets released and this is the one for May.  I love fresh fruit and we are finally getting to that wonderful season.  The first card today shows the entire star and this totally adorable sentiment.

 The second card I made I enlarged the star and cut out only the orange slices and used them with this fun sentiment.

Now if you would like to see all the great new sets for the month of May you can hop on over to the Doodle Pantry store.  They are all so fun this month!

Choo Choo

Happy Friday.  It is a beautiful one here in Iowa - finally. =)  Today I have a birthday card to show you using two different digital stamp sets from Clear Dollar Stamps.  The train is from a set called Choo Choo.  The sentiment is from a set called Elly Fun.  They worked fun together.

Hand Sanitizer Holder

I needed to make more of these at the beginning of the cold and flu season this year.  It was a bad one this year.  I used the new digital image from Hambo Images called Fish Hooks.  I have taken several different photos of this project.

This is the inside of the holder.  I used the sentiment inside.

I would like to submit this project into these challenges:

Try Stampin' On Tuesday #115 Challenge

It's Tuesday which means a new sketch challenge over at Try Stampin' On Tuesday.  I had a lot of fun with this sketch.  I used a digital stamp set from Doodle Pantry called Bandaid.  I used up some old paper that I had stashed for a fun project and this was it.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will come on over and join in the sketch fun at Try Stampin' On Tuesday.

Blog Hop Day for Clear Dollar Stamps

Yeah, it's blog hop day!  This month the theme is "Yellow".  We are celebrating spring at Clear Dollar Stamps even though the weather isn't.  We still have snow on the ground in Iowa and I know lots of other states are the same.  Yellow is the perfect theme I think.  If you have come from Laura's blog than you are on the right trail.  If not, you will want to start over at the Clearly iStamp blog so you don't miss any bright and happy projects today.  Last month we started something new with our hop and it worked great so we are doing it again this month.  You will need to leave me a comment here on my blog but make sure you leave your email address.  I get to choose a random winner from my blog comments.  If you win you will receive the set that I have used on my card.  I used the new digital set called Charlie Bee.  The set is really cute and I know you will love working with it.  I used only the beehive image and sentiment.  Aren't those bees so cute?!?

To continue the hop you will be going to Laurie's blog.  Make sure you leave me a comment and make sure you attach your email.  Have a fun day and happy hopping!
