When I started on Thursday morning my goal had been to do 3 or 4 cards using the new list of surprise products that Stampin' Up! had given us that were now eligible to be FREE as part of Sale-A-Bration. If you have followed along with this 'series' - you know that didn't quite happen. As it is - I owned everything but the designer paper (sorry, the poodle in that paper...just doesn't do it for me). I had already used the Glimmer Paper in 4 of my camp cards, knew the dies would … [Read more...] about Petals & More Series Card 3: Brusho Meets Glimmer Paper!

So - if you saw the last video I posted - did you notice that the 'scrap' piece of paper I was working on was actually a half sheet of Shimmery White cardstock?

In fact I think the scrap from card 1 makes an even prettier card 2!If you missed the first card - you will need to scroll back one post and go see how to create the background. As I made the pieces for my bouquet in the previous card and painted the brusho it left a … [Read more...] about Reverse Watercolor with Brusho – Card Two from Petal Palette Bundle

Goodbye February! We have had some lovely glimpses of spring here in the midwest. Although...I must say it makes me a little nervous seeing the winter blast spreading through Europe at the moment. Crazy those shots of Italy in the snow! We leave for Ireland soon and I want the snow very far away by then. I made the mistake of looking at the app on my phone for Dublin's weather this morning. Far too many snowflakes for my liking!Today's card is inspired by … [Read more...] about Farmhouse Style Eucalyptus Card with Lots of Lavender
