Experimenting with masks
I recently purchased the Hearts & Stars Decorative Masks and I've been itching to give them a try. The card to the left is what I came up with for my first attempt. I used a really old color challenge from my favorite site for the color scheme on this card. I...
July 15th Excitement
There are so many things to share with you today that I'm not quite sure where to start! This beautiful stamp set will be featured in the Holiday Mini catalog that is coming out at the end of August. Stampin' Up! has released this set early so you can get a...
The fence in the back yard
I have seen several cards posted on the internet that use the Hardwood stamp to create a fence as a backdrop for a scene. One example had each of the "slats" cut apart and sponged on the edges before they were put back on (with a small gap) to create the fence. I...
Get Well Flowers
I recently took an inventory of the cards that I have on hand for sending on the spur of the moment. I discovered that I have plenty of birthday cards, but a very sad shortage of "get well" and "sympathy" cards. So, don't be surprised if you...

I'm happy to announce that I am offering ribbon shares for the In Color ribbon and twine this year. A ribbon share is a great way to get a sampling of colors to use on your projects without having to purchase a bunch of it. The one shown to the left is the...
Blendabilities are here!
You may remember that I posted a bit ago that I was super excited about the Blendabilities markers, but was reluctant to share too much since they weren't available to non-demonstrators yet. I'm very happy to report that I can speak in the past tense about...
