Masculine Monday – World Map

Do you run into brick walls when trying to create masculine cards? I do.  I find that my stamps, paper and accessories come from what I like, and I like bling, pearls,  lace and the subtle colors …not the best combo for a guy. So I turned to Pinterest and found this awesome card that I cased.  It did not identify the creater so I can’t give them credit.   Usually… Read More »

Gorgeous Starburst Sayings

I am not calling this a gorgeous Sunburst Sayings card because I think it’s beautiful.   I am calling it by this name because I combined the Gorgeous Grunge Stamp Set with the  Sunburst Sayings Stamp Set!

Bloom with Hope

There is story behind today’s card! When I was looking for seeds to plant flowers (like the ones across the street from our house – see picture above) around our mailbox, I thought I had picked up the seed packet for Black Eye Susans. I inadvertently  picked up the Sunflower Seed Packet.  My husband planted them thinking I wanted Sunflowers.  Didn’t realize I had the wrong ones until they started… Read More »
