Can it really be November already? Yikes! As the time quickly marches on, we have a color challenge today that reads calm and serene to me. “Slow down and enjoy the view.” Cloud Cover, Misty Moonlight, and Pecan Pie took me right to this sheet from Beautiful Gallery that I’ve…
Tomorrow is Halloween. I’m guessing that you are all done with your Halloween cards, so I’m moving on to Christmas! 😁 Today we have a sketch to provide us with inspiration, and I’ve used products from the Modern Christmas suite to build my card. Here’s our Challenge: And Here’s My…
Today for Create with Stamping Friends, we have a color challenge! At first glance, I would never think “Halloween” when looking at these colors, but thanks to Spooky Sweet Designer Series Paper, it’s the first thing I thought of! We have Granny Apple Green, Petunia Pop, and Pumpkin Pie. Here’s…

It’s Thursday again, already! Time for another Create with Stamping Friends. And we have a fun sketch challenge this week. I’m using Gathering Moments with the fall foliage and the sentiment, “Thankful for you.” Here’s our sketch: And here’s my card: The sentiment is a little hard to read in…
It’s Thursday and another Create with Stamping Friends post! This week we have a pastel color palette to work with. When I first looked at it, I thought, “Easter eggs!” No – wrong season… OK, so my next thought was flowers. I pulled out Impressions Abloom Dies with our three…
Welcome September and our first Create with Stamping Friends this month! We have a sketch challenge this week. I combined Charming Day with Splendid Autumn for a Charming (Autumn) Day! Here’s our sketch: And here’s my card: Purple doesn’t exactly make me think of Autumn, but the touch of Cajun…
We are finishing up August with a neutral palette this week. We have Basic Beige, Pecan Pie, and Early Espresso. I knew that Woven Textures would fit the bill, but I surprised myself when I reached for Sunrise Sailing for the focal piece! So I have a Neutral Colors Sunrise…
I haven’t made a slimline card for a very “long” time! But that’s our challenge this week at Create with Stamping Friends, so I “stretched” myself – OK enough with the puns – and made a fun birthday card using Wildflower Birthday products. Here’s our challenge: And here’s my card:…
