They are perfect for my 3 grandsons who are in their 20’s. I took DSP from the retired Plaid Tidings 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and printed out the sweater with one of the patterns. I then glued it… Read More »

The background was sponged with Night of Navy Ink using a Blending Brush and a stencil. I… Read More »

I also just love the endless opportunities available when making cards using this bundle and the New Horizons Designer Series Paper (DSP). I stamped the trees directly onto the New Horizon DSP. The trees were inked up with Evening Evergreen Ink and then lightly misted with our… Read More »

I bet you are wondering where the word “valenversary” came from! My husband and I were married on 14 February 1993. When he proposed, we decided that I would pick the date and he would pick the location. So, we were married at the top of Run #2 at the Loveland Ski Resort in Colorado.
