Bright Pick-Me-Up
This card is an In Color smorgasbord - every one of the new colors play a role in the stamping and the cardstock layers. I like how these colors all work together; they are similar in color value, so they are in balance together. This isn't always the case since In...
Coffee is Mandatory
This bundle was the very first thing that totally grabbed me when I perused the new Annual catalog. The stamp set was co-designed by Connie Stewart and a Stampin' Up! artist/designer. This was to commemorate Connie reaching $1M in sales; one of the perks when reaching...
For Dad
I have had this stamp set and coordinating dies for ages since it was first released in a Spring mini catalog a couple of years ago. I'm chagrined to admit that this card is the very first time that I've used either of the products. This is a really amazing set for...
Bright Hello
This card actually came together pretty quickly. The pretty patterned paper gave me the idea to pull out the To a Wild Rose stamps and coordinating dies for the focal image. I was in a groove last evening as I put this together, and I had a brain blast to pull out my...
Oprah is Amazing!
Last evening I watched the first in a two-part series hosted by Oprah Winfrey called "OWN Spotlight: Where Do We Go From Here?". It was a tough listen for this white gal in the almost-whitest state in the country. But... for me that was the point. Just because what...

It’s Marilyn’s Birthday
I just discovered that today was Marilyn Monroe's birthday. I certainly knew that she was a cultural icon in her era, and easily recognize how beautiful she was. I also had a slight recollection of sadness related to her story, but didn't realize the extent until I...
Poppy Birthday
This was one of the cards that we created during one of the make-n-take breaks at OnStage last November. My friend Heather joined me for a fantastic day of stamping fun, and then we enjoyed a great dinner with our sons who drove up from their respective college...
Rogue Flowers
This is one of the cards that I created over the weekend for the birthday card ministry for our church. I left the Stampin' Up! ranch for the papers that you see here, but I used a retiring stamp, coordinating dies and some retired ribbon that all are from my favorite...
