Remember how I said you could make some beautiful cards with our fabulous Miracle Kit?  Well, check these out: Plus, I have so many leftovers…I could have made so many more cards, but I think I’ll try a layout or two! 🙂

So I thought I was doing good this week being efficient with my time and combining 2 fun challenges….Jeanette’s Color Me Monday Challenge with H2H’s Sketch Challenge coming up with this pretty card: But wouldn’t you know it…time got away from me and I didn’t get around to posting it until now and the H2H … Read more Efficiency with a Little Tardiness!

Made up a fun new card tonight (had missed making up this project earlier this month at my monthly stamp club where we rotate teaching each other)…. here’s a different view to better show off the 2 pockets and here it is utilizing the pockets with a little note card and gift card. So what … Read more Double the Fun with a 2-Pocket Card

This month’s Stamp of the Month–“Flower Pot”  is super cute and super fun to play with.  You can do a simple design with a lot of punch like my Stamp Club did last week…. or you can make a small thank you like I did for my online customers this month.

Yeah, I know…I’m a little late here.  Such is the story of my life! lol  I truly meant to post these pictures from last month’s “Easter Bunny Workshop” a whole lot sooner.  But then came my big adventure taking my 3-year-olds cross-country (by plane thankfully!) to visit grandma and grandpa.  Let’s just say little was accomplished during this … Read more An Easter Recap

I’m loving that it’s starting to look a lot like Spring is finally here (fingers crossed no more rain!).  And the challenge this week over at Project Tuesday is just perfect timing–a Flower Pot Card! (view when opened) I used our gorgeous Bella Level 2 Paper Packet.  The beauty of this was that I didn’t … Read more Another Sunny Day!

It seems like forever since I’ve had some free time to relax and create (and then share with you of course!).  Last week was a blur of crazy-busy activity preparing for the Pleasanton Scrapbook Expo.  While it’s always a bunch of fun to meet new and veteran scrapbookers alike…it’s also a whole lotta *W*O*R*K*! Here is … Read more Oh how I’ve missed you…

Okay a little wacky fun for today… here you see a rather worn out wooden Dutch clog.  I purchased this gem (pre-embellishment & coloring of course) at a local crafters’ mall.  I purchased it for a fun idea to use at our Team Celebrations/Meetings. Each month we each get the opportunity to share something we did … Read more If the shoe fits…

Here’s a layout of Addy from her 2nd birthday party I made this past weekend. I adore the pictures my friend Val took of both her and Lucas (as well as many of their friends). Sorry for the pesky glares (ughhh!) Now to do a solo Lucas layout (man, being a mom of twins alway makes … Read more Our Addy

Ok, here’s my first stab at doing a video tutorial.  Definitely not professional or without errors by any stretch of the imagination, but hopefully it’ll still spark some creativity in you! 🙂

Time to start thinking green…as in St. Patrick’s Day! 🙂  And Jeanette’s Color Me Monday does the trick this week.   Here’s what I came up with using our retired March Word Puzzle Stamp Set… “Short Accent” from Originals How-To Book.

Check out this fantastically cool pop-up card that Deanna designed at our February Team Meeting/Celebration this past weekend… This card almost makes you feel like you are in that relaxed, carefree vacation-mode; sailing on the clear blue sea, with the sun wrapping you in it’s warmth.  Are you envisioning your favorite drink in hand??!??!  The colors and the mosaic … Read more Smooth Sailing

I absolutely {LOVE} these colors together!  They were the color combination from last week’s Color Me Monday (Outdoor Denim, Twilight, Crystal Blue & Garden Green).  I decided to be efficient with my time this week and combine that challenge with Project Tuesday’s Joy Fold Card challenge and this is what I came up with.   I’ve made … Read more Beautiful Blues
