As I was looking through my Best Dressed DSP, I found this light purple and mint piece that looks a little like daisies. So Daisy Lane came out of the closet and today we are welcoming Spring (I know… wishful thinking!) Here is Daisy Lane & Best Dressed together~ Pretty…
Happy Valentine’s Day to each of you! Hearts, flowers, and sweet wishes to all my peeps! When I was young, one of my favorite crafts was to make Valentine cards for all my friends. When I was a kindergarten teacher, it was also a favorite activity to do with my…
Here is a pretty little card that only takes a few minutes to make. Dare I say, 10 minutes? Yep! “Your friendship is a blessing” is such a beautiful sentiment from So Sentimental that can be used for many an occasion. Quick Stats: Lovely Lipstick Cardstock ~ 8-1/2″x 5-1/2″, scored…
When I saw the color palette for the TGIF Challenge this week, I immediately thought of Lovely Lily Pad and Lily Impressions DSP. Here is my card ~ ~and here is the TGIF banner that inspired my creativity ~ Smoky Slate became my base color. The Pool Party and Melon…
Any great celebration calls for confetti, right? Super Bowl…America’s Got Talent…your retirement…your birthday… This calls for confetti! Not to mention, a few balloons! This toucan and the confetti come with the Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper. I’ve cut out three similarly round balloons and popped them up with Dimensionals over…
MIX IT UP! Today I have a card with a little bit of this, and a little bit of that! It all started with a request for a tiny 3-1/2″x 2-1/2″ trading card. I picked Daffodil Delight and Birthday Bonanza DSP and it took off from there! I stamped the…
I have a fun fold valentine to show you today. This isn’t a new fold, but I’ve updated it with this year’s From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper. I’ve also used Thick Whisper White and Real Red Cardstock, the Meant To Be Stamp Set, and Stitched Be Mine Dies.…
At first glance, Thoughtful Blooms may not grab your attention. But when you start stamping and building the images around each other, you get a beautiful look that really catches your eye! I want to thank Kelly Acheson for inspiring me to try these stamps. I took her basic pattern…
How about a Valentine that really doesn’t look like a Valentine, but was definitely “Meant To Bee?” I love this Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper that I got free with my qualifying order during Sale-A-Bration. Now as most of you know, there is a coordinating stamp set and die…

Peaceful Poppies and Healing Hugs go nicely together when you pull out the colors from the DSP! I had a tiny piece of this pretty Peaceful Poppies DSP left and I couldn’t let it go to waste! I was able to layer it over the blue lined piece also from…
Growing up in Hawaii (our tropical oasis) back in the 60’s was a LOT of fun! This paper is so nostalgic. It wasn’t uncommon to see these “Woodies” driving through Kailua town with a surfboard hanging out the open back window. It was beachy, and hip, and well… cool! And…
