Christmas Quilt Grid
Today is the day!!! The new Holiday catalog is now available to you, and I'm sure that you're going to love it as much as I do! I was totally in love with the very first suite that you find when you leaf through the catalog. It is called Quilted Christmas, and I...
Cape Cod Dreams
I just got home from a wonderful week in glorious Cape Cod. My husband and I vacationed with some friends at the beach - we had our own cute little cottage an easy walk away from the time-share that they own. And to make it even better, my sister came down and joined...
Camping Critters
This was the "easier" card that the Essex stamp club gals made earlier this month. This card really isn't complicated, but it did take a while to finish I didn't factor in the waiting for the Tree Builder punch to make the tree with a bird as the focal image. Please...
Halloween Playing
I created this card for a demonstrator only Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog swap that I'm participating in. I'm a real sucker for this catalog - making Holiday cards is what got me hooked on stamping in the first place. Of course, I love making cards for all sorts of...

Ribbon Thoughts
I have known far too many people that should have received this card. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer when our son was 18 months old. Thankfully, after surgery and chemotherapy she was declared cancer free 5 years later. But it was a tough fight. I have...
Bright Wishes
I had a lot of fun playing with some items from the Eastern Palace Suite when I created this card. I mainly used the colors in this panel of the pretty DSP in the coordinating paper and added Soft Sky flower diecuts to tone it down a little bit. This is actually a...
You have a friend
I created this pretty card using a new stamp set from the big catalog that started in June. I absolutely LOVE the gorgeous, extra large sentiments that are part of this set. This card is all about the stamping - there are no other embellishments on here. I wanted the...
For Becky
I received the new catalog when I was at the Savannah On Stage event back in April. After they handed out the catalogs, they gave us a few minutes to pore through it and ooh and ahh over all the new things. Every so often you would hear an outburst when someone...
