Happy Saturday everyone! Hope your weekend is off to a great start. If you are looking for something to do tonight, don’t forget that the TSG release party will be tonight 0n the TSG Facebook Page from 6-8 PM Pacific time- hope to see you there!! Oh, and did I mention that one lucky participant in the chat will win all FOUR of the brand new stamp sets??

Yesterday I shared a card that I created with the boy nurse from the soon to be released set Get Well Wishes and today I wanted to share a card I created with the girl nurse. Both cards were super easy to make but I love how they turned out! With all of the nurses we have in our lives because of Kylie, this set will get lots of use!

Day three and we are SO happy to have you with us still!! We are all DYING over this set, and I think you will see why soon!!
 

When drawing up last month’s Oh Crop set, there were just TOO many cute images and sayings for one set, so we HAD to split it into two. Poultry In Motion is the companion set to Oh Crop, and includes SEVERAL new sayings, and more ADORABLE images you are sure to love! From the farmer’s wife, to several more barn yard friends, you will LOVE what you can create when these two sets combine.

For today’s sneak peek I combined the stamp set Oh Crop that was released last month with today’s Poultry In Motion stamp set. These images work perfect together and when you have this adorable couple side by side it looks like a whimsical version of American Gothic don’t ya think?
The images in this set are absolutely adorable and I can’t wait to make more projects and card sets using it!!
All of the images in this project were colored with Prismacolor pencils, cut out and layered with dimensionals to give it a 3D look.
