Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezie Cards!

Recently, I was roaming the aisles at Michaels and stumbled upon some really fun dimensional stickers. They were.... on sale too! Which makes me say....'me likey!'

Because my mom's drive is underway to gather Valentines for the kiddos at Children's Hospital of Michigan, I thought -- 'Oh, these would make cute cards!' I think the teens would love them! And.... so I bought them and let the fun begin! When I got home, I even realized that I had some fun paper in my decorative paper bin that matched!

Card #1:

This card above was accented with the help of the Spellbinder's Heart and Scalloped Heart Nestabilities. I added some stitching around the edge and the sticker in the center of the heart came just as is! Love that! The sentiment is from the So In Love set from Our Craft Lounge! The button was a part of the sticker set -- gotta love that!

Card #2

The card above is simply decorative paper, a fun bit of ribbon, a scalloped edge and one of the stickers! How easy is that?

Card #3

The last card for today was also created thanks to the Hearts and Scalloped Hearts Nestabilities by Spellbinders. I added some decorative paper and a strip of paper for my sentiment, which is also from the So In Love set. The sticker on this page is just the little floral heart with some bling. Isn't that cute? I should say the brand of stickers is the Michaels Reflections brand. Love the fun colors and dimension on these cuties!
That's it for today my friends! If you'd like to know more about my mom's card drive you can click HERE to travel to her blog! She's got a post at the top of her blog that explains the drive and how you can get involved! She needs at least 1,000 Valentines for the kiddos to share so... she's got her work cut out for her! ;-)
Thanks for stopping by!

Stampin' A Little Love!

I have to tell you - I got the cutest email today from the fabulous Cambria Turnbow. She was having a heck of a day -- it was a kids almost missed the bus, run around like mad, errand running, CHA planning kind of day! (Where is that Calgon when you need it?) In her down time she started to surf and saw this post from my bud Barb. Cambria said she was inspired! She wanted to help in my mom's challenge to collect 1,000 Valentines for the children at the Children's Hospital of Michigan! You can read more about my mom's cause here at Cards 4 Kids.

AND Cambria wants to give you an incentive to help! This sweet woman offered up one of the new sets from Our Craft Lounge! Here's a peek at the candy! It's Lola Love! Isn't it darling? I also asked if I could show some eye candy that she created to show you just how darling this little gal stamps up! Aren't these the cutest? So, all you need to do is leave a comment HERE and email my mom at Mrsmiley6@aol.com saying you'll donate a card or two to her cause! We would love to shower the children at this critical care hospital with lots of love handmade by artists from all over the country! Can you help? Keep in mind, the Lola Love stamp set would be in addition to the two sets I am offering up, plus the ribbon and embellishment bundle! This is a prize package that retails for well over $50! You can also click HERE to sign up for Regina Easter's candy. She is giving away some fabulous Valentine's Day printables from the Cutting Cafe! In fact, she's giving away her entire Valentine's Day collection!

Gosh ladies, your generosity amazes me! Gotta love that giving spirit! Thanks from the bottom of my heart!
