Five for Friday & A Poppy Pod Bouquet Card
Hello everyone! Happy Friday! I drew the flower pod in our Flower Circles Stamp Set with a poppy pod in mind. It makes me smile every time I see it in use.

Flower Circles Hello Card
Hello everyone! Popped in to share a card I made with our Flower Circles Stamp Set. I first stamped the poppy pod outline on white cardstock. After I created the background, I stamped the label from Bowtiful Additions Stamp Set and cut out. I used a circle punch to open the inside of the label for my scissors to get in. Then I added some sparkle with a glitter pen and some enamel dots. I had fun playing with some of my old inks on this card. Thank you for stopping by! Happy Crafting!

[The Missing Manual for Card Making] Stretch A Sketch
Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a post for a series of postings I've wanted to do for a while. I am one of those people who reads every word in a user manual and hopes there is one for everything, haha! While I am still learning new things everyday, I think I should go ahead and document what I've learned. I will share simple bite-size tips in the hope that they will be helpful to someone else too. When I first stumbled across card sketches, I felt like that I found a piece of that missing manual for card making. A sketch takes out the majority of the "guess work". I believe limitation is what stimulates creativity! The...
