As I was explaining last week (see post here), I’m trying to finish projects “from by-gone days!” I took leftover card kit pieces from several fall card kits I had to create these cards using the Freshly Made Sketch templates as inspiration. As I’ve said many times, if you need inspiration, go see FMS or any […]

Love is in the air…Sending hearts
Did you make a new year’s resolution to make and send handmade cards to family and friends? I suggest you try the Paper Pumpkin kits to get started. You can send a little love to someone special with January’s Sending Hearts Paper Pumpkin kit (must purchase by January 10 to receive this kit). From heaps […]
Out with the old and in with the new?
Well, not quite for me. Even though I have a number of the new spring Stampin’ Up! products from the Mini Catalog (January 5-February 28), I’ve made myself clean out my stamp room, again. This time I got serious and sent over 225 retired stamp sets (can you believe anyone could have that many??!) to […]
Spring and Sale-a-Bration catalogs are now live!
What a year 2020 turned out to be for all of us worldwide. Last January started out so hopeful, but quickly went downhill. Thankfully it’s a new year with many vaccines becoming available to all of us. Another good thing is that every year in January Stampin’ Up! issues in the new spring and Sale-a-Bration […]

There are so many wonderful things for you to see! If you ordered from me in the past year, you should have […]

Unfortunately, they weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to […]
Whale of a Time with curvy waves
With creative curves and wonderful waves, the Quite Curvy Stamp Set and coordinating Curvy Dies add texture and dimension to any paper project! And combined with my Whale of a Time DSP, I made these two great “underwater” cards! On my first card I used the curvy “bubbles” die. NOTE: be sure to look carefully […]
Celebrate Every Special Moment – with a handmade card
While I love having a stash of stamp sets and other supplies for specific seasons and special occasions (way too many according to my husband, he avoids looking in my craft room for just that reason – LOL!), I like to keep a selection of versatile options on hand for simple and convenient crafting. With […]
Celebrating Fall with Gilded Autumn DSP
Are you taking time to enjoy our fall weather before starting your holiday projects? So am I! We finally have “fall” temperatures in the low 70’s during the day, high 40’s, low 50’s at night. For us longtime, coastal Texans it’s been glorious! The Gilded Autumn product suite start’s with nature-inspired imagery, with an addition […]
