Do you like Orchids? They just seem to say something exotic don’t they? Todays card shows off a few with a little heat embossing. The Paper Players posted a great Colour Challenge that includes, Pink Pirouette, Pear Pizzazz, Silver and White so I went for it! I wanted to use the Climbing Orchid Bundle so […]

A SPECIAL DRAGONFLY FOR YOUR SPECIAL DAY
Today’s card shows off the beautiful dragonfly from the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set and matching detail dragonfly thinlits. Because, everyone needs a special dragonfly for their special day! I love the way it looks like this dragonfly is landing on those leaves from the Colorful Seasons Bundle. The detailed outline of the dragonfly was stamped […]
OWL’OWEEN IS COMING
