Stampin' Up! I {Heart} Hearts Valentine Idea

Today's Making A Difference idea is something I am making for my friends this year... a Valentine Card.... It's so easy for me to send cards for Christmas, but this year, I want to do more than that!  So I am making cards and maybe even some treats for my friends.

This card uses the new I {Heart} Hearts set and the new heart embosslit from the mini catalog. And the punch you can get for FREE for a $50 order this month! 
Super quick and totally cute!

Stampin' Up! With All My Heart Card Idea

MAD Challenge! - Day 3

Ok, so I LOVE this color combo!  Yes I've used it for 3 days now!

Here is today's Making A Difference idea.  It uses the With All My Heart set from the occasions mini catalog as well as the new JUMBO Flower punch from the mini.  I added some glitter to the flower and it just makes it pop out!  Wish you could see it in real life... it's marvelous!

This one is going to my friend Barb for treating me to such a wonderful birthday out last week.  (Yes, I turned 40-gasp!)  She and my friend Monica (who moved away-sigh) took me out for dinner and spoiled me! See a pic of the 3 of us here.

So, a beautiful thank you is in order.... think she'll like it???

We have lots of people who do things for us... who do you need to send a thank you to today???

Have an attitude of grattitude!

Stampin' Up! With All My Heart Card Idea

MAD Challenge!--Day 1

What's that you ask?  Well, it's a challenge I am giving myself (AND YOU) for the month of February!

Making A Difference Challenge.... make a card/gift every day this month for someone else!  Yes, you cannot make it and keep it... it must be given away.

With Stampin' Up! we have the perfect opportunity to Make A Difference!  We have fabulous stamps and supplies to make beautiful things... And I don't know about you, but I have gotten in the habbit of NOT sending as many cards as I used to... Well, they say it takes many days to start a new habbit, so I am beginning today, and I hope you will too!

Today's card uses the new With All My Heart set from the Occasions Mini Catalog.  Right now this is one of my favorite color combos.... Bashful Blue, Night of Navy, Pumpkin Pie (with a little Apricot Appeal).  The blue rhinestone brad from the ice circle brads is the perfect accent.  Oh, and the greeting is from the NEW Whimiscal Words set that you can get for FREE during Sale-a-bration.

I'm sending this card to my friend Monica who just moved away this weekend to Alabama!  I sure miss her already :(  So, who are you sending a card to today????
