    Embossing Two Ways with Dragonfly Dreams

    When I had a hostess ask me this month to use Dragonfly Dreams for one of her event cards, I smiled and said “of course!”  Then I did my best Winnie the Pooh impression and sat at my craft table poking my head and saying “think, think, think”.  I had played a little with this…

  • Fast and Fun Birthday Card with Birthday Blooms!

    Sometimes I need a card, but my brain is just struggling when I try to figure what exactly to make for that card.  Anyone else know that feeling?  Like, you have your supplies in front of you and you just stare at them, willing them to start arranging themselves into some awesome design… but sadly,…

  • Christmas Card Joy with Peaceful Pines

    I really did have grand plans this year to get all of my Christmas cards out early.  After years of being terrible about NOT sending out cards at all, last year I sent out around 70 holiday cards and it felt great to be putting a little cheer out through the mail.  So, I was…

  • A Clean and Simple Embossed Happy Hello with Blended Bloom

    Sometimes I get all caught up in the fun of playing with all my punches, ribbons, and accessories, that I forget to go back to the basics…. ink, stamps, and paper!  But I shared this card with my Stamp Club recently and loved the elegance of it and the simplicity.  Tips for making this card:…

  • Sharing Thanksgiving Memories with the Happiness Is Project Life Kit

    Yesterday was National Scrapbooking Day and while I normally like to celebrate by actually trying to catch up on some scrapbooking pages, this year I opted for some family time as my husband and I had both returned from business trips on Friday.  The kids had been with Grandma and so it was our turn…

  • A Kinda Eclectic Convention Display Board Sample

    How about another quick share using the oh so pretty Kinda Eclectic stamp set?  This was another card I created for Convention last year and I realized I hadn’t shared it yet. It was one of those “a little bit of this and that” cards and so there were lots of fun little touches. Tips…

    See, I told you I’d be back with more projects to share! Today’s card is one that I put together for a Christmas Card stamp-a-stack last month.  We were making a bunch of Christmas cards and I had seen this one on Pinterest and thought it was so pretty.  It was created by Amy O’Neill…
