I played with the Paper Pals stamps & dies today, along with the Face Palm stamp set. I thought this was a cute little card combining these sets :)

I liked the idea of a Pirate card...and the Face Palm stamp UGH, as a replacement for the pirate sound Argh. When I assembled the card and realized the angle of the scarf showed a bald head...it reminded me of my son's fight with Cancer a few years ago, and I thought the sentiment kind of fitted that situation. I know how much of a horrible journey that is, and such a hard one to approach with other people....so I guess you would need a very special friendship to actually feel you could use this card.... but it certainly made...

Another Ladybug card for Valentines Day with Heart Happy paper scraps. I cut the Number thin cuts '8' die, and used the centre fall-outs for eyes. Sponged the Candy apple ink onto the tag while the die was still on to leave a clean white edge 

Another cute way to use the Letter Board stamp set. I used the 'Face Palm' stamp set for the baby faces, and cut the "Oh,NO" stamp to get the 'Oh' on the Pixie card. Used the circle outline stamp from Colorful textures for the blanket / body.... and the stars and heart stamps for the background accents. Letter Board alphabet stamps for the 'Welcome" on the Carolina card. Alphabet dies for the BABY titles. 

I am loving the alphabet from the Letterboard Stampset.... I have used it a bunch of times already. I stamped a letter board on White Daisy cardstock with the Almond stamp pad. I stamped another letter board in black on Almond cardstock, then cut out the centre and overlaid it. I used scraps to make tiny flags from the CTMH 'So much happy" paper packet. I drew with Le Pen for the 'string line', and used the smallest Basic heart thin cut die.
