And my last sneak for you today is Fashionably French. I used some designer paper from KnC company and tried a new thing with the ribbon, I kinda like how it turned out. I also paper pieced the dress with some of the paper and layered up the sentiment on the tags.
Graceful Skater is up next and such an elegant image. I pulled out the white and pinks for a girly girl card. I added a little jewel to the corner and some gingham ribbon.
Now another little something that CDS is offering is a New Line of Digital images. Whohoo.... Yes they are offering for you Digi lovers out there some wonderful designs. Be sure to check them out as well the sneaks from:
Now Charlie has a new set today its called Charlie Bee happy. The hive in this set is so so cute that I focused on it today instead of Charlie. But don't worry the other girls have him all done up for you.
This darling little bunny is from the Butterfly Bunny. I love how clean and crisp this turned out. I added a few jewels to the flowers and that was it. This has to be one of my favorite cards I have made.
My springy flowers here are from the Bless my bloomers set. I haven't used my spellbinders flower shape in awhile so I pulled it out for the bottom layer and added some piercing. The silk bow tops it off.
This one is with a sentiment set mostly called Heartfelt sentiments. I kept this very simple with a sympathy sentiment. I really really like the baby blue with my sympathy cards I am sure you can see. Very soothing and simple.
This pretty little thing is with Blooming with Blessings. The umbrella in the set is what I gravitated to first since I don't have anything like that. I went with some memory box paper that I liked the color of. Popped up the panel and added some pearls. This is a little more glammed up for me but I do like how it turned out.
This is a journal that I got around Christmas time for very little. I have recovered the front with the teapot and cup image from Let's have Tea. I added a pendant panel to the back and some ribbon with pearls. Very simple and looks so much better than the original.
Check out what the girls have planned for today:

Easter is just around the corner I can't believe it. This year has gone by so fast already. I made this darling little Easter basket with the instructions over on SCS here. Man I had a hard time getting my fingers to work right doing this. haha But I did get it done and its totally cute.
I did not stamp last week, was not on any blogs nor was I on SCS. GASP!!! I had so much going on last week it was crazy. I am so glad that I do cards in advance for release weeks. LOL I am going to be playing catch up on blogs and galleries this week.
Over on Flourishes blog today its all about Easter. I made this quick little Easter basket of goodies with the new set Easter Basket. I have a clear box that I cut the tabs off of and added my own handle. I decorated the sides with some designer paper and some ribbon. The little eggs in this set are just so cute. I popped the ribbon bow up on dimensionals and added some sparkle. Very quick and simple little gift.
Flourishes has a sale on the set Easter Bunnies at a discount of 40%. Be sure to check out the set! Some of the girls have used this set today before it gets retired. The card above is using the set called Lily of Hope. I went with the soft and subtle colors of the Copic Pastels. I really like the sentiment over the image. Some crochet ribbon with some soft pink ruffled ribbon on top. Very soft and simple. Check out the girls little Easter creations:

For the basket above I have added some flower soft for the grass in the basket. I paper pieced all the basket goodies and tied a nice little ribbon bow at the top. This Easter basket set is so cute. Be sure to check out the other Easter creations from:
This next card I made with more fresh colors for spring. The sentiment totally makes me giggle. I started off using the OCCC sketch and well I messed up, so now its just a card. LOL I do like these springy colors though. I added some liquid glass to the coffee for the wet look. hee hee
Hope you are enjoying the Coffee shop hop. Your next and last stop is over at Sue aka Coffeestampers gallery over on SCS here. Coffee Brawd is available in just a few short hours! Happy Shopping!
See you back here tomorrow, for our last day of sneak peeks and our release party tomorrow night!
Now Laura and I have another thing in common besides simple and clean cards. She loves to make gift sets as well. So I made my own little box with magnetic lid that holds these cards and envelopes. Here is the front with it closed. I used the simple tote without the handle that I usually make. I cut out a window in the front with a spellbinders label and adhered some clear cardstock to the inside. So you can peek through to the goodies inside.
Below is a picture with the lid open and a few of the cards out. This little bird house is so cute and perfect for summer and spring cards. I used the small magnet circles to keep the box closed. Added some pearls and crochet ribbon and done. Very simple and great little gift for one of the boys teacher last year. I surprised her with it on her desk at school. She knew it was from me though. I guess that is what I get for being the only stamping mom there. LOL
Be sure to check out the other sneaks from:
This next one I used again the set Let them eat cake set. I really like this springy paper that the boys got me last year and this is the last little snippet of this one. Very simple with a little bit of ribbon and the scallop edge.
Now the girls have some awesome creations for you:

This next one I added some fabulous satin ribbon and pearls for a more elaborate get well. This flower is from the Lilac stamp set. I love this new peach satin ribbon that Flourishes has. The new spellbinders should be in the store as well so check out all the new goodies why you are there. The picture doesn't show it but I added some apricot shimmerz to the flowers for a little sparkle, but I didn't get it well with the camera.
Check out the Get well cards the girls came up with for you:
Whohoo! Have I found the coolest web store. I have been seeing these cupcake challenges on Michelle's blog for awhile now. Sometimes I get tunnel vision and long story short.... I finally found Hope Stamps Eternal web store and cupcake challenge on their blog. Rachel's store if so awesome and she has LOTS of cool enabling items I must say. So after spending sometime on the blog and then in the store I got my order in the mail. YES!!!
The next one I did the other day for the Ways to Use it challenge on SCS WT258 Orange Love. Now I don't use orange too much but I thought it would be fun to pull it out and give it a whirl. Turned out pretty cute. I added a few jewels and voila.
Got lots of fun things happening the next few weeks. I can't wait to share with you all! :0) Have a great day!
