o I just love doing this because it helps me find ways to use up all the scraps left over from scrapbooking. I have a whole drawer full of 1/4 pieces of paper left from matting photos, etc. Anyway, I think I'm over my huge card-making kick, so I'll stop posting my lame cards...
They are not lame! I love the birthday ones, and the third card is awesome. You've done a great job of using your "scraps". Thanks for some great ideas.
I've enjoyed seeing your cards. Keep them coming! I thought that was the most real cupcake I'd ever seen on a card and then I saw the ice cream cone. Looks like you could pick them off and eat them.
First time on the site. Your cards are anything but lame. I am the least creative person out here, and your ideas have inspired me to give it a try. Thanks so much.
I have to say that I don't use stamps--I use die cuts, chipboard, etc. I'm more of a scrapbooker that got diverted by card making. I do intend to hit up stamping more with the acrylic stamps they have now. So much cheaper and not frustrating like the rubber.
This blog exists so we can exchange homemade card ideas. Please include labels when you post! Here are a few ideas, but feel free to make up your own: Christmas, birthday, stamps, eyelets, stickers, tri-fold, brads, ribbon, simple, etc.

I wanted to share my blog "creation story." I was great at creating and stashing cards away, but my friends made fun of my hoarding. I never sent the cards! I was afraid that I could never recreate the hard-earned ideas. I began photographing cards and eventually created this blog, which allows all of us to have a record of what we have created. The title of the blog applies to me and probably no one else who posts on here...but as much as I've tried to come up with a new title, this one stuck. I'm so grateful to all of you for contributing and following this blog!!

I LOVE them!! One thing I love is that they all are different from each other. I especially love the fourth one down. :)

I love your cards! I've started making cards, but don't have the stamps to do stuff like you do. Your cards are inspirational and so cool!
