So, I was in a mood to make a shabby chic card and wanted to use the color “Misty Moonlight” in it. But I forgot I sold the cardstock, ink and marker because it retired! And, yes, I sell everything once it retires because I want to be able to buy the new things in the catalog without digging too deeply into my own pockets. Can you relate? For the… Read More »

The images include 3 women relaxing by looking at the landscape with a glass of wine , one looking out the window, or (my favorite) reading with their furry friend. I finally used up all the Pansy… Read More »
I had so much fun making this card! I love the cute, adorable farm animals in the Peekaboo Farm Stamp Set. You can create so many cute cards – choose from a cow, pig, horse, and more! Though it does have a stone fence stamp in the set, I used the Picture This Die so that the cuties are peeking out! The images were stamped with Tuxedo Black Ink onto… Read More »
Today’s card features the stamp set “What a Guy” and is a non-SU stamp set. Usually when I am using a “contraband” stamp set it’s because it’s for a very special person. In this case, it’s for my nephew, Peter. When I first saw this stamp set, I thought of Peter – it is so him! The digital image was printed out on Basic White Cardstock and layered with Cherry… Read More »

When you mind draws a blank and you are out of ideas, a sketch challenge may be for you to… Read More »

This set is one I will not get rid of. Grandparents stamps sets from Stampin’ Up! are far and few in between and I’m hanging on to this one. The image was stamped with… Read More »

The base card is Bermuda Bay Cardstock and Layer 1 is the retired Fine Art Floral Designer Series… Read More »
