This week I am embracing the Designer Series Papers that I haven’t used yet -or- perhaps not for a long while! Today is one I just cut into for the first time. It’s called Wildly Flowering and I’ve made it into a thank you card. Here’s my card ~ The…

Here’s another pack of Designer Series Paper that I haven’t used yet. It’s Mediterranean Blooms ~ pretty with hand-painted oranges and lemons. I did not buy the stamp set/die bundle (although I’m not sure why, as it’s very nice!) so I hadn’t dipped into the DSP yet. To keep with…
Hi! I’m giving you a handmade hug with Countryside Inn today! I’ve decided to challenge myself this week by using Designer Series Paper that I’ve never used or haven’t used for a long time. I’ll let the paper drive the design and I’m keeping it simple this week. Countryside Inn…
One more Frames & Flowers card for you. This one is super simple! From the lack of response to yesterday’s fun fold card, I’m guessing some of you prefer the easier cards to make! This one is for you! I simply took one of the frames that comes in the Frames…
This week I’ve been playing with the Designer Series Pack called Frames & Flowers. My first card HERE was a Get Well Card, my second HERE was a square “For You” Card. Today I’m showing you a Frames & Flowers Easel Card that has a birthday message. Take a look…
Hello again! It’s time for another Create with Stamping Friends challenge, this week a color challenge. I find the color challenges just a bit more difficult, simply because there are so many options that you can choose. I chose a Layers of Beauty anniversary card. Come take a look! Here’s…
Welcome back to my Frames & Flowers series! Today is #2. Yesterday I made a floral get well card. If you missed it, you can see it HERE. Today I’ve made a 4-1/4″ square card to house this pretty punch-out wreath for my sentiment. It’s Frames & Flowers for you!…
Hello! I feel like I haven’t been crafting for weeks (but it’s actually only been one week – crazy, yes?) I hope you all had a good Memorial Day Weekend! We had our kids from Idaho and Washington come down for the weekend and it was a blast! This week…
This week at Create with Stamping Friends, we have a sketch challenge. I followed this sketch pretty closely, using Sweetly Scripted (Get Well) for the banner across the faux pocket. Here’s the sketch: And here’s my card: Mine is a faux pocket, but you could make this a real pocket…

Today I’m entering my card into the Festive Friday Challenge. Its theme this week is Brother’s Day and our options are all very masculine-oriented. I picked silver, black, and red for my masculine birthday card and used Wanted To Say Dies for the birthday sentiment. I just wanted to say,…
Today’s Create With Stamping Friends challenge is a color combination that I love! Highland Heather, Blueberry Bushel, and Summer Splash are so pretty together. I found a pack of DSP in our new catalog that shows all these colors and more in what I think looks like a paint swatch…
