How Amazing You Are

My Meadow, Thanks for the Laughs, Stampin Up!, Brian King (2)

It’s no secret that I love my InKing Royalty team, customers and friends who’ve signed up to be demonstrators on my team or the teams of those who signed up with me. They are kind, fun, creative and talented. Most of the Royals are “in this” for the discounts and the friendships they’ve made and have no desire to sell to someone else. I’m totally fine with that and love to support them wherever they…

Just Checking On You

Check You Out, Music From the Heart, Stampin Up!, Brian King

These are challenging times. While the pandemic rages on outside our doors, we hope the virus never touches our lives or the lives of anyone we know. Even if our loved ones never contract the virus, there are good reasons to check in on the ones we love to let them know we love them. Mom is stuck at home, but I think her chances of staying safe in Charleston are better than in the…

Making a Splash with Lots of Lilies

Lovely Lily Pad, Make a Splash, Dockside Dies, Stampin Up!, Brian King

When I was playing around with the By the Dock Bundle yesterday (you can see that card here), I was captivated by the adorable frog die that’s included in the Dockside Dies.

Here’s my card with the Dockside Dies frog and all three lily-themed Sale-a-Bration products: Tips, Tricks and…

Here for You with By the Dock

By the Dock, Stampin Up!, Brian King

When a friend is hurting, sometimes the best thing we can do is just let them know we are there for them. “I’m here for you” says, “I care, and I’m here to give you whatever space or support you need.” What better way to share that sentiment than with a card? Better – a handmade card. Better – a handmade card with the By the Dock bundle. I’ve been looking for a fun way…

Hello with Peaceful Poppies

Label Me Bold, Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper, Stampin Up!, Brian King

I’ve had a small pile of 1″ circles sitting on the edge of my desk for about a month. I didn’t want to waste a scrap of Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper, so I punched a handful of circles to eventually use on a card. This week’s CAS(E) This Sketch challenge turned that little pile of circles into a sweet-and-simple card. What great inspiration! ♥ Here’s my card for this week’s CTS challenge: I turned…

Happy Day with Thoughtful Blooms

Thoughtful Blooms, Itty Bitty Greetings, Stampin' Up, Brian King

I love to combine elements from multiple places to make a card that looks like all of its elements were made for each other. What makes today’s Spring card special? Is it the gorgeous frame?

The Peaceful Poppies Suite is full of poppies of all colors – mostly bright red, some purple and some pink.
