I thought I’d give myself a challenge and try a single layer card. Not so easy as it looks! But a fun change. I found myself wanting to add more…the little rhinestones are the only thing that gives this card any dimension. I masked off the oval in the center…

Are you inspired by beautiful photos? I mean, who isn’t?! I took this photo while staying at the Leonardo Plaza Hotel in Tiberius, Israel. This is a sunrise on the Sea of Galilee: It was such a fabulous trip. We went with a tour group through Noseworthy Travel Services. I…
I’ve just returned from a fabulous tour of the Holy Land. It was the trip of a lifetime! I’m working off jet lag, as Israel is 10 hours ahead of us, but I’m eager to get back into my craft room – so here we go! This is a sneak…
There is just something about pink and green together that makes me think of weddings……oh yeah, those were the colors in my wedding… 40 years ago! When I saw the color combination of Pink Pirouette, Pear Pizzazz, and Gold on this week’s Pals Paper Arts Challenge, I knew a wedding…

I just received this stamp set called Made With Love as an incentive gift from Stampin’ Up! so I had to give it a “test drive!” It is the most adorable collection of images for babies that I’ve seen. I am also on a mission to use up as much…
I have little bits of Bohemian DSP left in my file, so I created three thank you cards to share with you. These are note card size. I used Very Vanilla cardstock and cut them to a base size of 5″ x 3 1/2″. All three have the sentiment…
Today is my husband’s birthday! I was looking through my stash for a masculine birthday card, and I found this one. Now, don’t tell him, but I made this card a long time ago. It’s been sitting in my box just waiting for the right opportunity !! I made this…
