I needed to buy my mom a new phone. I ordered this Jitterbug flip phone because it has large buttons and it is easy for her to answer. Because she is in a wheelchair, I wanted to make a little case since she could not get to her pockets.. I think it took me all […]

Grab your shamrock stamps and dies…and make a card or two. There are so many occasions to make cards, right? This is the 1st year that I made St. Patrick’s Day cards. I ordered the supplies and made some really cute cards! ONE stamp/stencil set. ONE word die. ONE sentiment stamp/die set. Certainly saves on […]

have been in a heart mood lately. Maybe it’s because Valentine’s Day just passed. Regardless, I love this Heart Garden stamp set from Simon Says Stamp.

Cards with action…cards that move. I LOVE these cards. And, they were pretty easy to make thanks to the Action Wobbles by Art Impressions.

Sometimes I like to challenge myself and see how many cards I can make out of one main die or stamp set. Since Valentine’s Day is around the corner…

Colorado Craft Company and Anita Jeram have HIT. IT. OUT. OF. THE. PARK. In my humble opinion. They came out with a bunch of new stamps last winter…and have continued to release them over the past 3ish months. This is the 1st time I have had an opportunity to play around and make cards. I […]

I love painting with Perfect Pearls Powder. The versatility of this powder amazes me. A great product for your stash.

Shaker cards! Yay. Yay.  I love making and receiving a shaker card. Simon Says Stamp came out with some clear acetate sheets this year and I love them. They are meant to be foiled (video explains it all) and foil I did. I love the large shaker window with the pattern paper showing through. Don’t […]

Trifold cards are so fun to receive, don’t you think? Sometimes creating trifold cards can be cumbersome and time consuming to make. This Concord & 9th Joy Trifold die makes it so easy. I mean really easy! Add a few flowers…or even a skating polar bear and you have some great trifold cards. I used […]

How about some ink blending on cards? Fast and simple is my middle name right now. Gotta get it done! Right?! I created these backgrounds with Distress Inks. I had NO plan.  Just added the ink, spritzed with a bunch of water, set them aside to try…and viola – beautiful backgounds. I created 4 cards […]

MFT Stamps sure knows how to make the sweetest girls? Don’t you agree? I just love how these Pure Innocence Gift Tags turned out! I wanted to show you that you can make tags with coloring and without coloring…options are always great don’t you think? I colored the top row with Copic Alcohohl Ink Markers. […]

Have you ever used Perfect Pearls Powder? Nope? Me neither. Jennifer McGuire made a video and I loved the technique. So, I bought the supplies and played with them. I used one of her cards as my practice…and then went on to create my own designs. Perfect Pearls is easy to use and creates a […]
