Hi, crafty friends. Today’s cards are super small and unexpected… I wanted to create a couple of shaped cards using THIS sweet image. I stamped it with THIS ink and colored them in using THIS watercolor once the black ink was dry. I traced them twice and cut those out to create card backs. I scored a line on the back piece towards the top and applied adhesive above that line to create a...
Hello, crafty friends. I have a last minute gift idea that is perfect for teachers and neighbors… I’ve seen a similar idea on the internet where you give a roll of tape and a roll of gift wrap, but I wanted to make a gift wrap kit for Aiden’s teacher as part of her Christmas gift. The items I put inside the kit were… 10 handmade Christmas tags 1 pair of retractable scissors 2...
Hello, crafty friends. I’m sharing a couple of rainbow cards today that use one stamp to get two different looks… I recently shared a card HERE where I used the spotlight on you stamp set image as a sun burst image. I thought it would be fun to see how I could stretch the use of THIS stamp for multiple designs. I thought the arch of the image lent itself to a rainbow, so...
Happy Holidays, crafty friends. Today’s blog post is all about adding handmade touches to Holiday photo cards… I decided to do photo cards this year, but wanted to add some handmade touches to the printed cards. First, I added THIS to all the berries in the design. It gave some raised dimension to the flat card. I also cut out hearts from blue card stock and used THIS stamp set to stamp “2018” to...

I created an ice pond using THIS oval die and die-cut THIS die in the center. I adhered foam tape to the back of the piece on three sides, creating a channel for a strip of paper to slide in. I stamped...

I also stamped, colored, and cut out flowers from THIS stamp set to add along the bottom...
Hi there, crafty friends. I’m back today to share a Christmas tag that holds a gift card… I die-cut THIS tag twice and die-cut the center with THIS rectangle die (from the coordinating die set). I backed it with another solid tag and white heat embossed a sentiment from THIS stamp set. From that same stamp set, I stamped, colored, and cut out the images. I adhered them to a blue piece of card...

Hi there, crafty friends. Today’s card was created using a new stamp set from THIS release from Simon Says Stamp… How adorable is THIS puppy!? I stamped, colored, and cut out the image. I adhered it down to a 3 x 5 inch black note card that was stamped with the confetti image using THIS white pigment ink. I used THIS spring to adhere it down so it give the motion of the dog...
