This card was just pure crafting fun in my craft room! I pulled from this and that, with no agenda other than to “play!” I did get my jumping off point from the current Tic Tac Toe Challenge #266. You’ll see that board below. Did I make a big mess?…
I went a little bit masculine for our Class Card #2: Woven Textures. This combination of browns really appeals to me! Here’s my card: Details: Woven Textures, off-white print, 4-7/8″x 3-5/8″ Three strips of Woven Textures prints, 6″x 1/2″, layered and glued to the off-white print, trimmed to fit Early…
We’re fast approaching Spring! Daylight Savings Time has begun and the days are getting longer. The temps haven’t quite caught up to the calendar, but they will pretty soon. I think it’s time to start planting the garden! We actually have started, as our growing season is pretty long in…
Hello! We have a color challenge this week. Peach Pie, Pool Party, and Old Olive. I always think of greenery when I think of Old Olive, so I pulled out a new stamp set called You Are Remarkable, and stamped a peachy flower! Here’s the challenge: And here’s my card:…

This week we have a sketch challenge at Create With Stamping Friends! I love a good sketch ~ one that you can interpret different ways. I took this sketch and “saw” the embroidery hoop being the center point with “You Inspire Me” as my sentiment. Here’s the sketch: And here’s…
Here’s a pretty little faith-based card that would be perfect for Easter or to anyone needing some hope! It uses the all-new Lovely Garden DSP. This Designer Series Paper is from the newly released Online Exclusives. It’s called Lovely Garden and was quickly my favorite! Here’s a peek at all…
Happy Monday! I’ve had this Wildly Flowering birthday card in “Drafts” for some time now and had forgotten about it! I think it’s time to post it! While Moody Mauve has not been my go-to color, I really like the combination of Early Espresso and Basic White with it. It…

We have a color challenge for this final Thursday in February. Today we are using Boho Blue, Pebbled Path, and Cajun Craze. I found two of these colors in my Storybook Moments DSP. The third color works well for a frame! Here’s the challenge board: And here’s my card: Is…
I love visiting the ocean, beach combing for shells and searching the tide pools for sea stars, etc. We have beautiful, rustic beaches in Northern California that are perfect for that activity. These are not the surfing beaches of Santa Cruz and south. These are rough and rocky with crashing…
