TWO BLOG POSTS IN ONE DAY! What has happened to me?!?!?! I'm just really into making cards right now. I have no idea why - well, actually I DO have an idea why. I am in love with these Lawn Fawn stamps and want to play with them all.the.time! Today (tonight!) I'm sharing two cards I made with the Lawn Fawn set called Whale You Be Mine. This is another mini set that is only $4. Best $4 I've ever spent! I wanted to show you both cards first before I talk about them as I used the same exact techniques on both. I wanted to create some water for my whales to sit on. I used two stamps both... Read more →
My name is Suzy Plantamura. I live in sunny Orange County, California by the beach. I have three kids, one grand baby, and two dogs. I draw watercolor cards and design stamps for Simon Says Stamp. I have a blog series called "one stamp, five ways" that I post to two times a week. I want to motivate and inspire others to use their stamp sets more and learn new techniques. I love designing products and making cards to share with others!

Home SWEET Home
I have another card to share with you today. And maybe a funny story or two as I always like to share those! This one uses a darling little set by Lawn Fawn called Home Sweet Home. It looks like it is intended for birds with their cute little houses, but I made it into a human house card! Here are the steps and products I used - there are links at the bottom of this post. I will start taking step shots on my next cards so it is easier to follow what I did. First I used the Stitched Rectangle Die-Cuts by Lawn Fawn to cut out a teal card stock rectangle and a white watercolor paper rectangle.... Read more →

You Are My Favorite
Hi friends - I'm back as a regular blogger - yippee! Thank you to those that left me a comment on my last post about losing my father. Those comments meant so much to me. I was also glad to see I still have some visitors after my three month absense! Today I want to share a tag I made with all of you. As I said in the last post, I've been discovering lots of new products to play with. I'm not doing this as a "job" and I'm not trying to sell you anything. I'm just creating for me right now and dare I say I've never had more fun doing it?!?!?!? I'm trying all kinds of new... Read more →

Lawn Fawn Cards
Hi friends! I fell off the face of the earth for a few months. Did anyone notice? I know I mentioned that my dad was really sick in my last few posts in November. He died on December 3rd and I went into a super dark, sad, lonely place for a while. I hope I didn't lose all of my blog readers. During the past couple months, I stepped away from scrapbooking completely as I needed some time to just rest. I was really sick for a long time and emotionally and physically exhausted. And now I'm back! During this time, I kept trying to doodle, but I couldn't seem to do it. I doodled a lot by my dad's... Read more →
