Some people say that when life give you lemons you should make lemonade. I decided to colour and emboss mine – same thing right? I was inspired to play along with the Pals Paper Arts colour challenge. The lemon image from A Happy Thing( a Sale-A-Bration pick) seemed to be the right one to use. […]

SOFT COLOURS FOR SPRING
Spring IS on the way – let’s say that 3 times each day until Friday, March 20th okay?! In the meantime we can play with our stamps and paper and create our own spring-themed projects – like this card. I used designs from Best Year Ever Designer Series paper, stamped the balloon and basket images […]
MOON LAKE AND IMAGINATION
I feel like I’m on a roll with masculine cards so here’s another that I created using the Moon Lake stamp set from the Occasions catalogue(page 21). The designer paper and loon image remind me of our cottage at the lake. I stamped the loon image using Basic Gray ink and then just touched up […]
THIS COULD BE CALLED A MASCULINE CARD
I challenged myself to make a masculine-themed card and I think this one will work just fine. I pulled the Choose Happiness stamp set out for this and choose to use the Mojo Monday sketch as a starting point. This card is also a “tall & skinny” card measuring in at 3-3/4″ x 11″ scored […]
FOR THE BIRDS AND A TUTORIAL
I’m pretty sure that I heard a robin yesterday although it could be wishful thinking. But, it did inspire me to make a card with a bird as the focus! I used the colour challenge from Pals Paper Arts and the theme challenge from the Paper Players to help with the layout. Did you know […]
MORE FROM THE CLASSROOM
Here’s another card that we created in the classroom on Tuesday night. The Crazy About You bundle makes the prettiest cards! This lovely colour combination of Coastal Cabana and Calypso Coral soothed our winter-weary thoughts! That sweet bow was made with one of the ribbon colours that you can get in the Best Year Ever […]
MORE FURRY FRIENDS FROM LIFE’S ADVENTURE
I had so much fun creating with cute furry friends that I made another card! This one uses a cute Hostess set called Life’s Adventure. I did some masking on the stamp so I could add my own ideas. (Tip: I used strips of scotch tape to cover up the parts I didn’t want to […]
YOU’RE SIMPLY WONDERFUL – A SALE-A-BRATION SENTIMENT
It’s a simple wonderful day and the perfect time to use another Sale-A-Bration stamp set to create a bright and friendly card. I matted a 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ card with a piece of Birthday Bash designer paper and then added a card from the This Day Project Life card collection. You can find this pretty […]
