Sometimes we see a card that we just love, but we may not have those supplies or it may not be for the occasion we need at that time. In today’s video I have created a card layout using it to create a valentine card for one and a birthday card for the second. I have made sure all the measurements are the same and the same tone-on-tone technique used on both.

It was such a lot of fun that I decided to make a Valentine version featuring the Country Bouquet Stamp Set and coordinating Country Bouquet Punch to show that a cracker is not just for Christmas!
Continue readingOnce again I enjoyed designing and making my flip over calendar for 2023, with the help of my friend, Elly – while she was visiting from the UK in October. . As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. This was designed for a stamp camp in early December 2022, we had such fun making them and my ladies have made me promise to do another for 2024
I am changing things a little for this year, I recognise not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month. .
So today I share, Valentine Hearts
Continue readingI am a bit of an organizing fanatic – (although if you looked at my desk right now you would probably think HUH!?!) I am always looking for a bit of paper to write a note on or double checking the date. So today’s 3D project covers both of those needs.
These are very easy to make and would make a super little gift for a co-worker, it holds about 200 pieces of 4 1/4 x 2 3/4 copy paper!

Continue readingWith the aid of a couple of punches, I am letting the decorative paper do all the work for my card today. The black and white of the Perfectly Penned decorative paper pack is just perfect to go with any color, so I chose to go with the vibrant Poppy Parade with a little Smoky Slate as a background.
Continue readingI can hardly believe we are in the last full week of January….. already! Valentine’s Day is just around the corner so it is time to rustle up some cards to share with friends and loved ones.
My fold today, is one I call a Lazy Z fold – basically because the front of the card is folded back on itself giving a lopsided Z shape, but lop-sided does not sound as good a lazy – so hence its name 🙂
Continue readingToday I have a cute desk top calendar to share – and it will fit in a regular envelope for posting!!! I have used a mixture of products from the new 2023 Jan – April Mini Catalog and the Annual Catalog. I think sometimes I get so caught up in the new goodies that I can overlook the ones already in my stash. So Tea Boutique decorative paper and Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set are from the Annual Catalog and the Petal Park Bundle is from the new mini!
