We’ve got some beautiful new Designer Series Papers coming out on May 5. One of them is a 6″x 6″ pack called Scenic Coast. It has a gorgeous sheen to it where the water is in the prints. I’ve CASEd a card from Rachel Tessman that is a fun fold.…
A few weeks ago, Jeanie presented a Mystery Monday challenge that intrigued me to try. She called it a “Back Fold Card.” This is the card I created with the Lovely Arrangements Bundle and the DSP that was the Product of the Month for February called Painted Illusions. I’m happy…

We’re doing something slightly different at Creating Coast to Coast this month! Rosanne (Pennsylvania) and I (California) have decided to CASE (Copy and Selectively Edit) each other.

For my post in Create with Stamping Friends this week, I’ve chosen Cute as a Bug DSP and the sentiment from Filled with Sweetness, “Love you berry much.” The berry paper and the sentiment are made for each other, don’t you think? Here’s our sketch challenge for the week: And…
We start April with a color challenge! Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, and Granny Apple Green. I found these three colors in the Homemade Sweetness Designer Series Paper, and decided to build a jar of peach jam for my card. So, yes, peaches aren’t exactly coral colored, although close – if…
