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
Fable Friends Baby Card – Mother Goose with Shiny Raincoats!
I need someone to have a baby so I have an excuse to make this card....a lot! Lots of babies! The card is so cute that we will be making it at my April camp. If you don't know anyone who is having a baby, you can switch the saying out for the Happy Spring that is also included in the Fable Friends set. Because nothing says "Happy Spring" like Mother Goose and her little baby geese wearing some shiny yellow raincoats. #amiright?! The tutorial will give you another quick use of … [Read more...] about Fable Friends Baby Card – Mother Goose with Shiny Raincoats!
Nine Lives: Stamparatus Mirror Image Technique Cat Card
Today's tutorial will give you one more way to use your Stamparatus! Did you know that you can use it for mirror image stamping? I used it on this card so I could have two kitties on my card - and they would both work in my punch. But - you can simply use a mirrored image on a card and not punch it out. I will do that for you sometime on another project. Another big tip - when you use a stamp set - hold your hand over the 'main image' - this allows you to REALLY see the images … [Read more...] about Nine Lives: Stamparatus Mirror Image Technique Cat Card

I have come to the last card that I have made with the Painted Seasons bundle of products!! I only have a couple of projects left that use anything from Sale-a-Bration 2019 left on them! Seriously - Where has the year gone?! It's really ok - this card makes me see visions of spring and as I type this my security system by my computer tells me it's already 55 degrees at 9am! BUT - you do need to get any of those last Sale-A-Bration items that are on your list. Friday March 15th I … [Read more...] about Painted Season and Well Said Easy Succulent Birthday Card
Painted Seasons {when you don't have a mushroom!} Embedded Linen Sticker Technique
Today I use the Painted Seasons paper....with the stamp as intended - no mushrooms, no whimsical animals - just the lovely fern. And lovely it is! The name of the technique is just something I totally made up, lol. And....really, there are two techniques in the card. First - to get the fern to stamp and match the one on the paper - it takes a little stamp and color with some inks and shimmer. Then - to ADD some mushrooms (because, you know, obsessed) I came up with my very own … [Read more...] about Painted Seasons {when you don't have a mushroom!} Embedded Linen Sticker Technique
So Hoppy Framelits?
I have had so many questions about the Frog Card tutorial I posted last week. So - I am just going to address them all here! I am occupied with so many projects right now, so this can answer all your questions (hopefully!) at once! I don't have any 'extra' dies to sell, sorry. I know they sold out super quickly. I did make the springs - as did the ladies that came to camp. They are simple, but fiddly to make. Not easy to film - and not at all easy to put into words. Everything is … [Read more...] about So Hoppy Framelits?
