Saturdays with Sally: National Thinking of You Week!


Hi - Sally here, with my monthly feature where I get to play and share whatever I'm up to! I am so happy my blog day is before National Thinking of You Week so you can participate. For years, the Greeting Card Association has sponsored this week to get people to send cards. This year it is Sept 23-29, so let’s get out your stamps, dies and CREATE!

I have a couple simple cards to share today - quick and easy so I can get several done and let friends know I'm thinking of them.


I used one of the dies from One of a Kind Stamp & Cut to punch out lots of little slightly-misshapen circles, and stamped tiny messages from Hero Greetings Mini Messages on them. Arrange them randomly on a white card and you have a cute little greeting for any friend.


I couldn’t stop because I love making sweet tags with the cute little Tag Fancy Die. The Mini Messages as well as Hero Greetings Sending Smiles are perfect for adding small sentiments, and of course I love to embellish with hearts! These tags can be mounted on any card and you have a 2-minute card. Attach a fancy ribbon or cord for pizazz. OR, just make a bunch of them and toss in an envelope for a fun surprise!

Now you are ready to participate in National Thinking of You Week! Don’t forget to fully embellish your envelopes too… watch for ideas on that on some future Saturday.

    Debossed Snowflake Christmas Card Tutorial with Snowflake Background Etched Dies

    Hello there, Michelle Short here to share a step-by-step tutorial using the Snowflake Background Etched Dies from the Lisa Horton Snowflake Kisses Collection. The Snowflake Background Etched Dies are two layers which you can cut as a base layer and a top layer. For my card today, instead of having die cut layers, I thought that I would deboss the design.
