Hello, crafty friends. I have a card share today that I had so much fun creating… I started by ink blending the background. I blended a couple of Concord & 9th inks for the sky and the grass. I didn’t have a grass stencil so I created one by die-cutting a grass die from acetate. I used an older Greetery stencil for the pathway. I die-cut the Pumpkin House pieces from colored card stock...
Hello, crafty friends. It’s time for another STAMPtember stamp set collaboration and it happens to be my favorite! It’s from Lawn Fawn and it’s called Eat, Sleep, and Be Merry… To create this card, I started by stamping and Copic coloring the adorable images from the Eat, Sleep, and Be Merry stamp set.

I die-cut the Smiley S’mores Die from several pieces of...

I layered the woodgrain pieces into the...

I applied the Blanco transfer gel through the Fading Circles stencil on the panel. I chose to use the Blanco transfer gel because I was applying it on top of colored card stock. After it was completely dry, I laid...
Hi, crafty friends. I hope you are doing well and staying safe. I wanted to create some cards for my sister-in-law and her fellow team of nurses at our local hospital. They are NICU nurses that hold a special place in my heart as they helped my son when he was a newborn. He was in the NICU for ten days after he was born. It was such a scary time and they took...
Howdy, crafty friends. Recently, my parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary and I thought I would share the card I created for them… I started by creating the interactive element with THIS die.

I tucked the...
