Change is Good!

Love these projects!  I am going to do some serious casing!!! ~~Rachel Much like in fashion and home décor, trends in paper crafting are changing all of the time. We often see trends from one area cross over into the other. I am excited to see change! As creative artists, we tend to craft in our own unique style, but at the same time, we can also be inspired by… Read More »

Everything Eleanor

The Everything Eleanor Clear Mount Stamp Set has delicate floral embellishments, frames, and flourishes–the perfect mix for your projects with vintage flair. I think this technique is called triple time stamping – it’s stamping all three layers at the same time.  You layer 3 sizes of Whisper White Card stock using a repositionable adhesive and then stamp your images.  You then pull them apart and then layer it with darker card… Read More »

So Shabby Chic!

Hi Stampin’ Friends I want to wish my granddaughter, Rachel, a very, very Happy 7th Birthday! On the way to Wal-Mart for groceries yesterday morning, we kept encountering dead armadillos on the road  AKA  Arkansas Speed Bumps or according to my husband a “Good Armadillo”!  The North American nine-banded armadillo tends to jump straight in the air when surprised, and consequently often collides with the undercarriage or fenders of passing vehicles. … Read More »

Amazing Friend

Hi Stampin’ Friends I changed the sentiment on my card – see original post here.  I like it so much more with the “correct” sentiment stamped in Gumball Green.  I used the Amazing Family Clear Mount Stamp Set.  This set is very vintage and on trend.  So versatile–and perfect for family birthday cards because it has the words mother, father, brother and sister.  . Coordinates with the Amazing Accent Stampin’ Around… Read More »

Stippled Blossoms

Hi Stampin’ Friends We went to a concert last week at one of the most beautiful settings in this area.  The music was classical (Mozart and Brahms) and the Mildred B. Cooper Chapel was the perfect place to hear the music! For today’s card, I used the Stippled Blossoms Clear Mount Stamp Set.  It has to be one of the most beautiful sets in the catalog.   Two-step stamping is so easy to… Read More »

Happy Day

Hi Stampin’ Friends Have you heard the saying “Dog Days of Summer”?  That usually happens in August around here but it’s that hot now!  Oh well, it’s a good excuse to stay indoors and work on my beloved cards! Since I had the Modern Medley DSP out, I decided to use it again today but give it a shabby chic look.  Check out the Masculine card I made yesterday with the… Read More »

Blooming with Kindness

Hi Stampin’ Friends I wanted to share the only picture I have that was taken during my birthday party.  It is of the 4 Rachel’s in our family.  It is not a good picture because my granddaughter would not get out of the pool and dry off to take the picture.  Oh well! Left to right (my niece, aunt, me and granddaughter) For today’s card, I decided to go shabby… Read More »
