Today’s card uses a technique that I haven’t tried before, the Book-Binding technique. This is a fun and easy technique. Just cut a piece of cardstockto 11″ x 4-1/4″. Then score it at 5-1/2″ and again at 4-1/4″. Fold at the 5-1/2″ mark and then again at the 4-1/4″ mark. Then adhere that 1-1/4″ piece […]

BACK TO THE 70’S
I’m going back to the 70’s today with this cute card created with the Sale-A-Bration set, Driving By(158099)! Back in the 70’s it was pretty common to see Volkswagen vans painted up like this one, lol. I used a piece from the Abstract Beauty designer paper(158039) to paper-piece the van(Just stamp the image onto the […]

Hello and welcome. Today’s project is a calendar that features the really cute cats from the Pampered Pets stamp set(152520).

And, we have a stamp set, Island Vibes(158096) that portrays tropical very well. It looks great matched up with a piece of the Simply Marbelous designer paper(158128) too! These […]

Do you have a January birthday in your circle? We do and this card is for that person! I used the Friendly Hello Bundle(159990) which is a Free choice from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue. That pretty little bird is also a great way to cheer someone up in the “dead” of winter. The matching designer paper […]
PRETTY TULIPS IN A ROW
Hello and welcome to another version of the Flowering Rain Boots Bundle(157691). There’s nothing like the first tulip peeking through the dirt in the spring is there? The tulip blooms stamp give you 7 blooms at once so you can use them together as I did or cut them apart for individual bloom once stamped. […]
