I really loved Dawn Olchefske’s sampler and thought it would be a great way to do my February tabletop display. I began by choosing my paper patterns from the Fresh Print DSP from the Celebrate the Everyday catalog. The overall size of my sampler is 6″ x 6″ with the squares starting at 1 3/4″ in Real Red and Coastal Cabana cardstock, then 1 1/2″ DSP. The stamped images are 1 1/4″ Whisper White cardstock. I then went through my extensive stamp set collection (best part of being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, right?) and started to fill in each square. There is something here for everyone in my family, little remembrances that they should all love and appreciate!

This is fantastic Debbie. I love the blocked style and you pulled it off perfectly! Great colors too and you know you had me with the airplane. 😉
BTW- I wanted to leava a comment but you can pull me from the contest.
Love this card. I’m such a Libra, I love everything balanced and even and in order. I think this card fit’s my fav file. BTW . . . I came over from Pam Berinato Morris Pal’s post. Thanks a bunch. 🙂
Absolutely adorable Debbie! Love the layout, the stamp set, the color combo. Great job my friend 😉
Great Card Debbie. You did a great job with so many squares…getting straight is not easy so I usually do not do them but love the look! Thanks for sharing!
Love your card, Debbie! What a great way to showcase all the different images & make them work so well together!
Very nice! Going to try this one today. Nasty outside so it’s a perfect day to stamp. Thanks for the idea.
Just love your sampler, especially the airplane….. Right up my “jetway”! 🙂
Oops, thought I had left a message yesterday when I pinned this lovely sampler! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this sampler! Great job, Debbie. I have been inspired to do one of my own and give it to a friend who may need some extra loving this weekend.
WOW, I love this! I can’t even pick my favorite square because you have used each so perfectly for this card. Maybe the tulip in the vase? No, maybe the way you did the airplane’s heart contrail in the next block over? No, maybe…..
Simply a perfect card!
