Smitten Valentine’s Card

Another card made using this month’s stamp of the month–Happy Valentine’s.  Pretty simple.  The only real time intensive portion was on the cracked glass technique on the rose.   The cracked glass technique is really quite simple if you are familiar with heat embossing.  At its core, it’s simply creating layers of clear embossing on … Read more Smitten Valentine’s Card

Owl Whooo’s Your Valentine Card

Working with the papers contained in the Whooo’s Your Valentine Kit I created this card (well, I had to add some Slate CS, but otherwise all the other cardstock–even the glitter paper were in the kit!) I also utilized our Silver Metallic Marker and Black Sparkles.

Today’s card was designed by Erin D.  I love how she incorporated the technique of using Cricut hearts folded to make a flower (step-by-step instructions found in the Autumn/Winter Idea Book on page 49.)  So easy and so pretty!  It also features the Pemberley Paper Collection as well as the Casual Expressions Stamp Set.

Sweet Music for National Piano Month

I’ve shared with you that September is National Stamping Month, but did you know that it’s also National Piano Month?  I didn’t until recently.  Not entirely surprising since I don’t know how to play the piano so I don’t have a close connection with it. I thought this card from Joy was so beautiful and … Read more Sweet Music for National Piano Month
