Have you checked out the latest release of images by DRS Designs? Check them all out here. I have a fun one for you today...a birthday card for young and old!
Check out Frisky Florence on my card below...she is ready to party!!!
I used one of the new birthday sentiments that was recently released...I chose to "alter" the sentiment a bit. I left off "dog" by simply cutting my stamp with a straight cut so that the parts will fit together again. This way I can stamp the image in its entirety or simply remove the word dog so that the image becomes more versatile for me. Florence was fun to color. I added a Prima flower and brad to her hat and I gave her a pearl earring. It's hard to see in my photo but I stamped the gift background in dazzle versamark ink on my olive panel.
Thanks for checking in...
See you soon...

I used two new sentiments by DRS Designs, thinking of you and medium daisy.
I stamped the daisy in gray just on the corner of the card. The flowers are by Making Memories and Prima. The sentiment is raised on pop dots. I added some twine to the button flower centers...the blue twine was tied in a bow.
Have a great day!

Sending you a smile is one of my favorite sentiments by DRS Designs. I chose it as a stand out image on my card this week.

The daisy basket is from the latest release of images by DRS. The sentiment is one of my favorites! I simply stamped the image on a piece of cork paper by Magenta and layered it on the colors of the challenge. The chocolate layer is embossed with an embossing folder along with the color strips. I added jewels to the flower centers and kitchen twine and a button finished things off.
Thanks for checking in...

Bee well is a newly released sentiment by DRS Designs. This cute happy bee is one of my favorite images. Happy bee is raised on pop dots. An embossing folder, ribbon and jewels finished things off.

is finally here and here is my card using a new image by DRS Designs...
The focal point, the spring wording square is the new image. You can see all the great new releases HERE. How do you like the background? Pretty cool huh? It's actually this flower border, stamped 3 times as close as I could without overlapping. After stamping, I colored the image and then cut out along the edges. I used a small craft knife to get to the inside areas. The panel is raised on pop dots. I added some ribbon, of course, and a button and jewels to finish things off.
Doesn't it just make you want to head outside and clean up those gardens? I know I would much rather be outside working in mine. That's what the weekends are for though, right?
Hope your Spring is off to a great start.
Thanks for checking in...

Have you checked out the latest release of images by DRS Designs??? Well, if you haven't, head on over and feast your eyes on another awesome release! I couldn't wait to jump right in and get inky as soon as my package arrived this past weekend.
Here is my first card...images by DRS Designs...
You will find three on my card here today. I love the new polka dot background stamp...I bet it will look great with the swiss dots embossing folder. I'm loving the new medium daisy bloom image...I bet it will look awesome colored in. I took the easy way out with this card by stamping it on colored cardstock and just cutting it out. The new welcome sentiment fit perfectly. Two of the flowers are layered light on dark and the one in the middle is layered dark on light. Yup, I cut out 6 of these babies!!! They are raised on pop dots and all three have seed bead centers.

Hi There...have you checked out the newest addition to the DRS Designs online store? They have these nifty bags for sale now! If you are a long time online/catalog/Rubber Mania Monthly customer, you already know about these bags, because you used to receive some of your stamp purchases in them. Well, DRS has decided to sell these bags for you to get crafty with. All the DRS designers have been busy at work to provide you with ideas on how to use these bags. Check out my idea below and check back in some older post AND look for ideas in upcoming posts.
I used the new celtic knot image on my project...
I stamped the image in forest green staz-on ink. I added a button and jewel in the button center. I added green ribbon in the same "channel" as the pull string that came with the bag. Some beads dressed up the ribbon ends. The bag is filled with lucky gold coins, just in time for St. Patricks Day!!!

Hi Everyone...we're almost there. One week closer to Spring!!! I have some springy colors for you today, and here is my card...Images by DRS Designs...
I thought these colors would make a great Easter card. I used two new releases by DRS Designs. The new blooming Easter greeting was perfect with the new Martha Stewart flower punch. This punch is different...not sure about it yet! It is supposed to emboss and punch but you must have to have super human strength to get it to emboss!!! Here is a close up shot of the layered flower...
I stamped the new spring flower suncatcher on the light blue panel in light blue ink. Such a springy, pretty image. A fancy border punch, some jewels and ribbon finished things off.
Thanks for checking in...
See you soon...
Welcome Back!! Happy Wednesday everyone. We made it to March and guess what, Easter and Spring are right around the corner.
Isn't this big bunny face image the cutest? He's one of the newest releases by DRS. I stamped the lower right corner of the focal image with the new Happy Easter sentiment. I used a cuttlebug embossing folder on the white panel. The bunnys bow is a satin ribbon and the felt flower has a pink brad for a flower center.
Thanks for checking in...

Hi there...it's me Cathy. Hope your week is going well. Here is my creation for you for this week...
Another clean and simple card! I used the new Martha Stewart punch anywhere punch for the fancy squares. I used the floral embossing folder to dress them up a little. The card base was embossed with the same folder. I added a vellum butterfly to each square. The sentiment is a new release by DRS Designs. A border punch, ribbon and some jewels finished things off.

sometimes you just need to have a little! Hi There, welcome back to another Wednesday, middle of the week, (yay) post with me, Cathy. Well, we're already half way through February...spring really is just around the corner! I have a somewhat springy card for you today...another clean and simple one!
This is such a pretty new sentiment by DRS, I just had to make it the focal image of my card. Some prima flowers, jewels, a ribbon and some Michaels bridal flowers (for leaves) finished things off. I used an embossing folder for my white panel which was adhered to the card base with pop dots.
This was a fun, quick and easy card. When you're busy, that's the best kind!!! Clean, simple and just a bit elegant if I do say so myself!!!
Thanks for checking in...

Hi there...it's me Cathy!
So...it's almost here...Valentines Day that is. Are you ready? Here's a card to get you in the spirit!!
Of course, the images are by DRS Designs!!! This girl swirl heart is from the last release of images. I think it is so cool. I added a few tear drop jewels to the tear drop shapes in the image. The black panel, although hard to see is dry embossed with the same folder as the purple circle. A fiskars border punch, some piercing and some jewels finished things off.

Here is my warm wishes card...
I stamped the new woven plaid stamp from the last release of images on a swatch of fabric that I picked up at Pottery Barn. It is stamped in brown and blue, although you can't really see the blue :(. I used the argyle embossing folder, distressing all cardstock layer edges. A felt ribbon, a tab stamped with "warm wishes" and some buttons, finished things off.

Hi There!!! Me again! Hope you had a good week since we met up last. I have a pair of simple cards for you today. I think every once in while we all need to step back and just go with the easy approach. I know its hard not to use all the wonderful supplies out there, but sometimes you just need to let your stamped images do the talking.
I used the same three flowers with butterfly image on these cards...changing up the sentiments based on the occasion for which the card is being sent.
Sympathy:
Sending a smile/Get Well:
Both of these cards will be put to use :(. Sometimes its great to make up a bunch of simple cards like this so you have them ready to go when you need them. The flowers on both are raised on pop dots. The butterfly was stamped on the card and then on a scrap and adhered with a pop dot.
Thanks for checking in...
See you soon..
