Scrapbooking Sunday: Butterflies & Tea for Two!
Ugh, I am terrible at titles for blog posts but I am so excited to share this scrapbook layout with you today! I just LOVE how it turned out and hope you can use some of the ideas I had to dress up your own scrapbooking layouts and cards. I used the Tea for Two…
Fun with Texture Thank You Card
As I was playing with ideas for thank you cards for February, I decided to get inspired by the Sycamore Street designer paper from the Sale-a-Bration flyer for my colors and then start adding texture as I went along. The most obvious bit of texture was my chevron embossing folder that I used on the…
Thank You for an Awesome 2012 and now on to 2013!
We did it… we made it through 2012 and now can cheerfully welcome in 2013! Its amazing to me how something so relatively simple (flipping a page on a calendar) can lead to such a re-energizing feeling! But before I get to excited and enthusiastic to stride into the new year, I have to look…
Fabulous Fall Card with Emboss Resist
I don’t know about you, but when I was walking around with the kiddos yesterday, it hit me how the trees have seemed to go from green with some reds and yellows, to almost bare with some reds, oranges, and yellows barely hanging on! I guess I can’t pretend that Fall isn’t totally here. 🙂…
Peek-a-boo Emboss Resist with Raining Flowers
Oops, I was so focused on getting the first week of my 12 weeks of Christmas newsletter ready that I totally got behind and forgot to get this post up! Well, I’m fixing that now. (and if you want to get exclusive holiday ideas sent to your inbox, just make sure you are on my…
Double Embossing with the Stripes Embossing Folder
Yesterday I highlighted the Emboss Resist card from my Awesome Embossing class that I’m holding today. And as promised, here is my first Halloween card of the season and the card we will be making to try out Double Embossing! If you can’t tell, this isn’t striped printed paper – it is heat embossed…
Scentsational Gingerbread Man Christmas Card

Vintage Vogue Mother’s Day Card
Alright, the count down to Mother’s Day is on! Here is another card we made during our Mother’s Day card class but the nice thing is, you could use it any time of the year! Can I just say, I can’t believe how long it took me to realize what a great combo…
Scrapbooking Sunday: Using the Simply Scored Board
For the first time in I don’t know how long, I actually created a scrapbook page without copying a sketch or a sample of someone else’s. All because I got my hands on the new diagonal score plate for my Simply Scored and wanted to play with it! I had a ton of scrapbooking ideas…
Fancy Florets Embossed Card
Today I thought I’d share a card I got to make at an event this summer hosted by my way-upline, Julie Gunhus. She is one of those demonstrators who have been around for over 10 years and now has a huge downline. She is so sweet to put on big group get togethers a couple…
Simple Is Beautiful Too
When looking at card samples online and at events like the Stampin’ Up! convention, its easy to be drawn in to the “WOW!” cards. You know, the ones that surely took someone multiple hours to make and look like they should be hung on a wall as art and you could never bear to throw…
