Well here we are, Christmas just behind us and the New Year on the horizon ! I know I say this every year……………… but 2022 did fly by so fast!

Continue readingIn my continued quest to use my decorative paper (DSP) stash I am using the Butterfly Kisses 6 x 6 pack as the main interest in this very quick and easy Lazy Z Fun Fold Card. I picked out a couple of colors from the paper for the card and ink.
Continue readingI think you may have guessed that Splendid Thoughts Stamp Set with the coordinating Splendid Stems Dies is a firm favorite in my stash!. This must be the 6th or 7th card I have shared in the last couple of months.
Today I am using this bundle to demonstrate a die stenciling technique, where I have used the dies to create stencils which gives a really neat coloring technique.
