Masculine Monday – Happy Birthday Gary

Today’s card features a fun-fold card. I saw a card like this on Pinterest but could not find any instructions on how to make it.

I have a lot of masculine birthdays in the next several months so having Masculine Mondays will help me… Read More »

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope your day is filled with chocolates and love. It’s a kind of stay at home day because it will be snowing for the next 4 days! I thought I would share some of my favorite valentine cards I’ve made over the years. It’s amazing how much my style has changed. Also, my photography skills have improved (ha, ha) and the pictures I post now are… Read More »

Happy Valenversary!

I guess I lied about making the last valentine card yesterday! I had one more to make and the most important one of all. When David proposed in 1992, we decided that I could pick the day and he would pick the place. I picked Valentine’s Day and he picked the Loveland Ski Resort. So we were married at Lift#2 at a small cabin nearby. Since it was at the… Read More »

Heartfelt

What do you do when you are in a hurry to make a card (before the mailman comes that day) – you case it! Which is what I did for today’s card. I saw one by Su Mohr and fell in love the the simplicity of it and the fact that it was a masculine card which I desperately needed! The only stamping on this card was the greeting from… Read More »

Today’s card features the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper. If you know me then you know that I usually don’t make fruit or vegetable cards – usually!

Then I made a card to go with it. Thanks… Read More »

Goodbye Sophie

I had to say goodbye to my sweet girl a month ago on 1/7/2021 and let her go over the rainbow bridge. Sophie, now you can run, explore and sniff to your heart’s content. I know you are pain free and can run like the wind again. This is the inside of the card. On the right side is the poem, Rainbow Bridge. Please hug and kiss your fur baby… Read More »
