Two Happy Cards

I think I have too much stuff. Wow, did I really say that?? Yikes!

Sometimes I feel like I have too much craft stuff when I look through things and see something that I don't even remember buying. Even worse is when I buy the same thing twice because I don't remember buying it the first time! My stuff is pretty organized, just think I might have too much. Or I should at least look through everything once in a while to remember or make a master inventory list or something like that.

Well, I rediscovered the Lil Inkers Mini Pinwheel die (& accompanying sentiment stamp set) in my stash this weekend and thought it would be perfect with some bright pink dotted paper scraps I found.  Super easy to make the pinwheel and I attached it to a spare lollipop/cakepop stick I had.

Nothing says summer and spring to me like fun pinwheels!



Fun color inspiration is this week's Dynamic Duos challenge.


Next card is inspired by this week's MUSE Challenge. Missed the deadline to post but wanted to share this card anyway.

Card is Jacquie Southas amazing card -


My birthday card uses the same colors and I used her embossed stars as the inspiration for my background. I used the Happy one liner die across the center.



Thanks for taking a peek! Have a great week!

  3. These are really stunning, Sherrie! Love them both! Glad to see that your side bars are back. I was able to subscribe by email, as well as follow, so I won't miss any of your posts!

    And, boy, can I relate about too much schtuff! That's why I started the NBUS movement which has really helped me remember my neglected schtuff.

    Hugs, Darnell

  4. I love both of these cards. I have that pinwheel die, too, and sort of forgot about it--oops. Love the card for Muse, too. Bummer about missing the deadline--but you still have an awesome card. Now, bite your tongue for saying that you have too much stuff. Impossible.

  5. I so understand about having too much stuff! I just went through all mine and had a big clean out. It was so good to get my room down to a more manageable inventory. Plus now there is room for new things! haha. But back to the Dynamic Duos card. Love pinwheels! and the sentiment goes perfectly. Lovely card.

  6. I can absolutely relate to having too much stuff. I have a big box sitting on my floor right now of stuff to donate! There are things I find all of the time that I forgot about. Trying to get better about it! Your card turned out so adorable. I love the pinwheel and the sentiment! Thanks for joining us this week at Dynamic Duos!
