During the month of July, we will be CASEing the Catalog at Create With Connie & Mary. So each Thursday we will bring to you our re-creations of some favorite catalog samples. Here is our first one: And here is my CASE of this lovely card: I mimicked the basic…
Ooooh, I love designing from a Tic Tac Toe Challenge, and this one was perfectly timed! I saw “Nature/Stars/Die Cuts” and knew exactly what I was going to make! My brother’s birthday is coming up. He and his wife are wrapping up a camper vacation in the Canadian Rockies. They’ve…
Independence Day is upon us! I cannot believe tomorrow is July!!! I had to pull out the red, white, and blue to celebrate, and these floral dies from Timeless Arrangements remind me of fireworks (squint-you’ll get it! 🤣) And if the recipient isn’t sure what we’re celebrating…the inside helps them…
This is my 2nd post today. My first was for Create With Connie & Mary. Yesterday I shared a card that I made using the beautiful coral and curry pages of Inked Botanicals. You can see it HERE. I promised to show you my blue version of this DSP, so…
Here we are, the final Thursday of June! Hard to believe! We have a sketch challenge at Create With Connie & Mary and I picked up Les Shoppes to work into the sketch. These store fronts are so much fun! I fussy-cut it out from the DSP. I thought a…
I’m sending Inked Botanicals on a card to say hello (obviously!) This is a great pairing ~ Inked Botanicals and the Sending Smiles bundle. I’m eagerly awaiting my Inked & Tiled Stamp Set to arrive, but these really look like they were made to go together. I’m also attempting to…
Here is Countryside Inn with texture! Do you love the blue prints in Countryside Inn? There is an embossing folder that goes with it called Countryside Blossoms. It perfectly matches this patterned paper and gives it lots of character. Here is my card alongside a Boho Blue Treat Bag that…
Every once in a while I get a card or project in the mail, or in this case some photos in email, by a fellow Demonstrator that I want to share with you. These Sticky Note Pads & Pencil Holders were made by Patty Hill and I think they are…
How about a super simple card with big time color for that stargazer in your family? Stargazing DSP packs a punch with some pretty cool graphics. Here’s a sample ~ I stepped it up just a wee bit by cutting out the rings from (Saturn?) and adhering them with Black…
Hi Everyone! Today is Friday, June 23, and you all should think pink today because it is National Pink Day! So, of course, I had to make a pink card! Look how sweet this is… Here is what I used ~ Berry Burst Cardstock base, 11″x 4-1/4″, folded at 5-1/2″…
Here we are with another Thursday Create With Connie & Mary! Today is a color challenge, and I have to say that because of this color challenge I now can embrace Moody Mauve and Wild Wheat! (I was skeptical!) Our combo is Moody Mauve, Bubble Bath, and Wild Wheat. I…
Hi there! We have a sketch challenge for CC2C this month! Each month Rosanne Mulhern and I pick a theme and create a CASE (Copy and Selectively Edit) to share with you. If you are new to my blog, CC2C stands for CASEing Coast To Coast. I live in California…

Did you know that tomorrow (Tuesday, June 20) is Ice Cream Soda Day? Yep, I googled it and sure enough…! One of my favorite childhood vacation memories is going for an ice cream soda, chocolate of course, with my dad. It was a special and yummy treat. It’s been a…
It’s another awesome Thursday with a sketch challenge at Create With Connie & Mary! This time I’m trying my hand at the new DSP called Masterfully Made. It’s packed with color and has interesting, textural, mixed-media art elements. It’s not for the shy or timid! 😆 Let’s first look at…
