Flower sizes and simple directions are printed on the board but it took me a while to...

Hello everyone! Happy Friday! I was inspired by this rock painting project to make a card for today! [caption id="attachment_11503" align="aligncenter" width="233"] Source: Found on Pinterest[/caption] Since I've been having fun playing with our Rock My World Stamp Set and Die Set lately, I immediately wanted to make strawberries with our rocks! And here is my take! How to Make Strawberries from Your Rock Stamps 1. Stamp the rocks on the card front. I'm using the reverse side of the "live, laugh, love" rock to get a solid image. 2.

Hello everyone! Popped in to share a card I made for a publication call. It didn't get picked for that issue but I loved it anyway. Here is the sketch: [caption id="attachment_11352" align="aligncenter" width="185"] As seen in Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking August 2014[/caption] As shared before in [The Missing Manual for Card Making] Stretch A Sketch, I rotated the sketch, gave the elements meaning and added special touches with stitched "X"s and dots "O"s :) It is a winning card in my book. All paper and embellishments are from Pebbles Yours Truly collection. Thank you for stopping by! Happy Crafting!
