With this heat wave going on my thoughts have turned to cooler weather! Of course, the new Aug-Dec. Mini Catalogue has helped to inspire that “cool” train of thought. So, why not an autumn-themed card?! I used the Forever Fern Bundle(154094) and teamed it up with a piece from the Gilded Autumn Specialty designer paper(153520) […]

YES, I DID!
Yes, I did! I’m posting the very first Christmas card of 2020 from my stamp room! The Toile Christmas stamp set(150469) made it into the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue, so why not get started early? Especially since this has been a “topsy-turvy” year, who says one can’t think of Christmas in the month of July?! Did […]
FLOWERS AND MEDALLIONS
Good morning to you! Today’s card features the Many Mates Bundle. The Many Medallions large die makes for a beautiful background for these bright flowers. I must say that you will absolutely need the Take Your Pick Die Brush tip(149655) for this die. There are a lot of tiny pieces in it, but the […]

A LITTLE NEW – A LITTLE OLD

By “old” I mean the two stamp sets used for this card – But – the silver lining is that they will be moving to the “new” catalogue! I used the fabulous Good Morning Magnolia Bundle(151087) (save 10%) paired up with Itty […]
ALL DAYS ARE BEAUTIFUL THAT BEGIN WITH YOU
“All days are beautiful that begin with you”! This is the sentinment that I put on today’s card! This simple message is to celebrate all of the women in our lives that support, protect and love us! The whole idea for this card came from a combination of three challenges that I’m playing along with. […]
THE OLD BLUE TRUCK
The old blue truck may seem like a strange thing to show on Mother’s Day, but I am remembering the blue truck that my husband and I had when we first got married! I figure that since it is Mother’s Day, I can post anything I want, right? This old truck took us many miles […]
