Hello Stampers! Welcome to the Stamp It June Blog Hop: It's for the Boys. Whether you've come from Liz Miller's blog or this is the first stop of the day, we're so glad you joined us. This month's hop features cards focusing on the men and boys in our lives. I've been on a watercoloring binge lately, so I wanted to incorporate that into today's card.

Hello Stampers! Can you say cute? Cute. Cute. Cute. My friend and fellow stamper Ruth Grosscup is going to be a grandma again, and she is excited. This is the baby shower card she designed and created to welcome her son and daughter-in-law's new addition to their family. This card uses Stampin' Up!'s Baby's First Framelits.

Hello Stampers! A great big thank you to the volunteers from the Lincoln Community Women's Club who help make cards that are donated to our local Make-A-Wish organization. Each month, we stamp about 40 cards and try to make a variety of birthday, thinking of you, and thank you. This particular card was designed as one a Make-A-Wish volunteer could use to send a child off on their wish. I just had to use my new Layered Letters Alphabet set from Stampin' Up!'s new annual catalog. It's a simple, but bright card that can be easily mailed. (I used the retired Brights Designer Series Paper Stack for the star because my new package hasn't arrived...
