Kristina Baldwin Okay, so I’m still here and still creating. Unfortunately though, a lot of what I’m creating these days I’m not yet able to share with y’all. Soon though… I did make this card in honor of Jeff and my anniversary tomorrow. For inspiration, I used the color challenge (Topiary, Desert Sand & Ocean) issued by … Read more Happy Together!
Tonight we made this fun (and easy!) gift box using this month’s Stamp of the Month “Cherish the Moment” at Stamp Club. York Pieces (taste like Peppermint Patties but in an M&M style tasty treat!) were the perfect compliment to the *NEW* Splendor Paper we used.
On Monday at Stamp Club, Chris taught us how to make fun shadow boxes using her Accucut Die Machine. Here is just one of the boxes I made using our *NEW* Cherry-O Papers. And here it is all opened up. I have to admit, I wouldn’t have considered myself a cherry-lovin’ paper person until these papers. … Read more Cherry-O Fun

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
