Today's tutorial is a fun one! I did the card for our weekly online demonstrator meetings that we do for a Facebook group. Most weeks we have a theme, this week we were all crazy busy and in lieu of a theme, it was just whatever...... Part of the reason we are busy is that we are preparing for a Demonstrator Training event we have coming up. I am doing a session on Big Shots - so I pulled out a Stamp and Die bundle that I have not used {yet} {at all} since I purchased it {when this … [Read more...] about Serene Garden Art Card: Stamparatus, Embossing Mat and Coloring with Brusho Crystals #stampinart
Australia Trip 2014
For so many of you a trip to Australia is a bucket list - for us - it's "going home" It is where I met my husband, where we lived when we first were married and where our daughter was born. She gets the best of both worlds in being half Aussie and half American. In a world where money was not an issue and it didn't take so many hours to get there - we would not wait so long between trips. We have so many happy memories and so many dear friends and family there. At some point I … [Read more...] about Australia Trip 2014

I am so in love with today's card! Sometimes when I sit down I have absolutely NO idea what I am going to make. Like NOTHING in my head. AT ALL.That was the case the case with this. To say I have a few projects going at the moment is an understatement..... It was Tuesday and on my Demonstrator Team page we do a Virtual Swap.
