Sympathy cards are ones we would really rather not send – but when we do they can bring so much comfort to those who receive them. I have created an easy fun fold card with nice soft colors, if you change out the greeting it would make a pretty, feminine birthday, thank you or thinking of you card.
Continue readingI love the combination of black and yellow, it is so bright and striking. Using the Color and Contour Stamp set allowed me to use Tuxedo Black ink for the outline of my flowers then Daffodil Delight to color in the petals.
Continue readingNot a lot of ‘stampin’ in today’s card, but lots of fun with ink! The new Jan – June 2022 Mini catalog has the Butterflies and flowers Layering Decorative Masks – which are basically stencils. I give a quick overview of the 6 that are the pack in my video which focusses on the butterfly sheets. It was such fun to work with these and I am sure I will have some other samples to share with you over the coming weeks.

My card today features one of them, without any greeting so that it can be used for just about any occasion – I like to have a few of these in my stash so if needed I can be ready!

Continue readingWelcome to 2022 – wishing you all a very Peaceful and Healthy New Year ~ I look forward to spending some time with you over the coming months, sharing the papercrafting projects I have been working on.
Last year I had such fun sharing my flip over calendar at the start of each month that I have decided to do the same for my 2022 calendar. This was designed for a stamp camp in November 2021, we had such fun making them and my ladies have made me promise to do another for 2022.
So today I share January Snowflakes
Continue readingIt is hard to believe this is my last post for 2021 – the year has simply flown by despite all the ‘issues’ we have all experienced!
I have chosen to use a the Tidings of Christmas Designer Paper to create a ‘Just Because’ card today. This paper is in the Annual Catalog and available year round, and although Christmas 2021 is behind us I wanted to use it for something other than a Christmas card (although you could add a Christmas greeting and it would work very well)
Continue readingTime for a card for the guys in our lives – I am not very good at these so when one pops into my head I grab it very quickly before it fades away! I used the Mountain Air Stamp set paired with the Beauty of the Earth Designer Paper which has lots of ‘leafy’ designs to go along with the trees and mountains in the stamp set.
Continue readingI hope you all had a peaceful Christmas yesterday. We have been so focused on the Christmas holiday, but other occasions do happen around this time of year. Our son and daughter-in-law celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary a few days before Christmas, today I share the card we sent them.
I used one of the new stamp sets from the 2022 January – June Mini Catalog – Eden’s Garden – for their card which I am sharing today.
