  • Happy Watercolor Leadership Swap Card

    I’m trying to get back in the swing of things and thought I’d share the card I created for a couple swaps I’m in.  I loved this Happy Watercolor stamp set and thought I’d experiment with some different color combinations.  What I used:  Summer Starfruit, Pool Party, Early Espresso, Sahara Sand, and Real Red So,…

  • A Color Challenge with the Stylin Stampin Inkspiration Girls

    So I was talking yesterday on Facebook about challenges and how they can be pretty handy when you need a little something to jump-start some craftiness.  I’m still looking for feedback on favorite challenge sites and what types of challenges you find most fun to do, but in the meantime, I have one to share…

    Woo hoo! It’s day 2 of my celebration and I have another card to share with you today.  This is a card that I made for my Fun n’ Crafty demo team swap.  Each month, everyone in my downline is invited to participate in a card swap… sort of like a secret santa – only…

  • Are You Ready For Some Cute Holiday Cards?

    Christmas is a little over 12 weeks away, so I figured it might be time to start thinking about holiday cards and crafts!  Next week is the first in my 12 weeks of Christmas series for my newsletter subscribers (more scoop on that below), but to get us warmed up, I thought I would share…

  • Dress Shirt Card for Dad

    You would think that for all the stamping classes I run and projects I make for swapping and my blog, I would always be prepared for holidays.  Ha!  They sneak up on me like my 3 yr old when I think he is taking a nap and jump out at me at the last minute. …

    Today is my hubby’s birthday!  So, first off: Happy Birthday, Scott! After being together for 12 1/2 years, we’ve gone through a lot of changes and growing (though he will tell you that it was mostly me that had the growing to do! ha ha!)  But now he is the one getting old   and…

  • Scrapbooking Sunday: Using Stamps as Accents on a Baby Page!

    Some incredibly talented girls I know started a paper crafting challenge blog a year ago called The Paper Girls Challenge Blog.  They post challenges twice a month for fun and (sometimes) prizes.

  • Thank You Card Sample with Orchard Harvest

    I’m still getting through last month’s card class projects to post, but I wanted to share this Thank You card today while it is still – sort of – fall time.  Plus, I wanted to share something other than Christmas for a change of pace. I reached for my Orchard Harvest designer series paper as…

  • A Birthday Card for the Men in your Life

    It can be a struggle sometimes to make masculine cards… there are just too many pretty ribbons, flowery stamps, and sparkles!  But as part of my Fabulous Fall card class, I tried to throw in some cards for the guys; and this was one that we made: See, no ribbon!  No flowers!  🙂 Yes, I…
