Hi, crafty friends. I’m back today with a few cards I created with THIS new card kit from Simon Says Stamp… I started by creating the card bases.

Hello there, crafty friends. Today’s cards feature some of the new stencils from the STAMPtember release… There are so many techniques that you can do with stencils.

On the pink card… I stamped the sentiments again and cut them...
Hello, crafty friends. I have two cards to share today with the same design, but two different color combinations… To create the watercolor pieces, I started by taping down THIS paper with THIS tape to a hard board.

Hi, crafty friends. Today’s cards feature THIS background stamp from Concord & 9th… I’m a big fan of Concord & 9th’s turnabout stamps. They recently released THIS turnabout tool kit that makes the turnabout stamps easier to use. The turnabouts stamps now come with a guide that make is super easy to line it up. I used the guide to line up the marbled background in my MISTI and stamped it with a variety...
Hi, crafty friends. Since it’s Thanksgiving in the states, I thought it would be the perfect time to share some thankful cards.
