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!

Faux Watercolor Look on Vellum
Hello everyone! I was excited about all the new dies and embossing folders from Lifestyle Crafts / We R Memory Keepers. I immediately ordered a few of my favorites using my Studio Team credits. I played with the Mason Jar Die yesterday and wanted to share what I have discovered while playing: a faux watercolor look on Vellum! The Mason Jar was screaming to be cut with vellum! The technique is very simple: use your Copics or any other alcohol markers to color in the embossing window. Use as a template is one of my favorite features of this die! I was putting the colors on very liberally and was happy with the results!...
Forever By Your Side Card
Hello everyone! Popped in to share a card I made that was published in Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking magazine June 2014 issue (p. 47)! This card was Top 3 of my favorites for last year. It all started with a scrap piece of pink cardstock that I didn't want to toss away. I cut a heart with my Silhouette and heat embossed the sentiment from a PTI set in white. Love the sentiment! 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...
