I’ve been playing with Sweet Gingerbread again. Check out the cute snow-glittered walkway I created with the White Glimmer Paper and Gingerbread Dies! And that sweet heart smoke coming from the chimney just makes me smile! I used my Stamparatus to place all of the stamps on this cardfront, trimmed…
It’s time for CASEing Coast to Coast again! I always look forward to this monthly post with Rosanne. It’s so fun collaborating with a fellow stamper and coming up with new things to share. This month, Rosanne (East Coast in PA) chose the theme – Shaker Cards! I have always…
Have you ever made a gingerbread house? We used to give our kindergartners a small milk carton and some graham crackers, frosting, and candy. That was a delightfully sticky, messy project and oh-so-fun! A friend of mine who is part of my Stampin’ Up! team brought me a kit last…

Always up for a challenge, I decided to give this Triangle Tri-Fold a go. I watched a video on SplitCoastStampers if you want to take a few minutes to watch it. A couple simple changes I made ~ I left off the extra DSP, used Vellum for the triangles, and…
I bought the Sweet Gingerbread Bundle, and honestly, the only way to figure out what all the parts and pieces do… Well, sometimes ya just gotta play with it! So play, I did. And I really had no direction in mind. But I turned out this cute little note card…
