Celebrate by the Tide


Today's card is my spin on a card I saw on Splitcoaststampers and was created using the By the Tide stamp set from the Spring Catalog 
- which ends on May 31st!
Brayering on color layers gives an under-the-sea feel to the card.
Embossing the Fish and the Coral images give them texture, shine and "life"!

Learn how to make this card, and more, 
by joining one of my on-going Hostess Clubs!
Hostess Clubs are a great way to learn new techniques 
and earn FREE Stampin' Up products!!!!

Happy Stamping,
Mary

New: Wee Paws for a Cause


Introducing: Wee Paws for a Cause!

These 3"x3"
 "wee little note cards" 
are the perfect size for tucking into a gift
or into a bouquet of flowers!
 You could even punch a small hole in one corner, 
thread some ribbon through 
and have yourself a super cute "wee little gift tag"!

Each wee little card comes with it's own wee little envelope too!

You can order these cute little cards, directly from me, for
4/$5.00 
If you are local, I will deliver your cards to you directly.  
Otherwise a small mailing charge will be applied to your total
as the profits from all of my Paw Print Cards and Wee Paw Cards
 are going to rescue!
Mailing charges will vary depending on weight and cost of packaging.
I typically use the bubble mailers available at the USPS and ship standard mail.

you may give me an idea of core colors you prefer.

If you are interested in purchasing these cards, 
to support animal Rescue and Adoption, 
contact me for details.

If you would like to purchase the supplies 
to make your own Paw Cards,
I will be happy to provide you with those as well!  
Contact Me for a supply list!
If you order the materials and tools from me, 
in my Online Store,
I will donate 10% of the purchase price to Rescue!

 My own Lucy is a Rescue pup... 
Through these cards, I hope to be able to give something back 
for all that having her in my life has given me!

I hope you enjoy my Wee Paws for a Cause cards!

Happy Stamping!

Paws for Rescue


It all started with one little Puppy Paw Card 
that I made and had on display at my booth at a dog Rescue event.

I was promoting my Stampin' Up! classes,clubs and products 
and was selling my hand-made cards.  
I used the "profit" from the sale of the cards 
to purchase dog food for the rescues.

A dear friend ordered some of these cards 
to be custom made with specific greetings on the front.
When I posted some sample designs, for her to choose from, 
on my Facebook page, 
I started receiving requests for more.

These cards are available for Sale, from me, 
4/$15.00.  
If you are local, I will hand deliver your cards.
If you are not, I will ship them to you via USPS!
Shipping will be in the $3-$4 range 
- Postage is calculated on weight and 
I purchase bubble mailers at the Post Office 
to save on weight and protect the cards.

I put a lot of time and care into each and every one of these cards. 
I am starting to design a greater variety 
of front panels but, 
the Paw Print remains the same.

I leave the inside blank for your handwritten note - 
with the exception of a band of paw tracks 
that is stamped along the bottom.  

Each card comes with an envelope for mailing 
- stamped with some coordinating paw tracks.

I reserve the right to design each card as I please 
however, 
you may give me an idea of core colors you prefer 
and the sentiments you would like for the front panel.  
You may also choose to have no sentiment at all 
so you can use them for any occasion!

If you are interested in purchasing these cards, 
to support animal Rescue and Adoption, 
contact me to place your order.

My own Lucy is a Rescue pup... 
Through these cards, I hope to be able to give something back 
for all that having her in my life has given me!

If you would like to purchase the supplies 
to make your own Puppy Paw Cards,
I will be happy to provide you with those as well!  
Contact me for a supply list!
If you order the materials and tools from me, 
in my Online Store,
I will donate 10% of the purchase price to Rescue!


Happy Stamping!
Mary
