Hi and welcome! Today’s card features the In The Pines Bundle and a fun (but messy) technique! This In The Pines stamp set is a “2-step” stamping set and I wanted the trees to have snow on them! So, I used the 2nd step image and heat embossed it with White Emboss Powder. Then added […]

THE SEASON OF SPARKLE IS COMING
Ok, with the chilly weather setting in I couldn’t help but create a card with sparkly snowflakes! And……today being the 25th means that Christmas is only 3 months away! I pulled out the retired Silver Glimmer paper for this because it just seemed right to add that special sparkle. And that led to using the […]
THE STARS HAVE IT

HELLO LOVELY
Ha, it’s Friday and time for a lovely, flowery card – again! I had cut out a few pieces from the Many Medallions dies so used this one as a background for those lovely flowers. This time, I glued it down with the Multipurpose Liquid Glue(110755). It’s good a strong and you only need a […]
