My cousin’s wife’s adult son died last week after battling heart problems most of his life. I know it’s been so hard for her and her grandsons, and I wanted to send her a sympathy card. As I was contemplating my card design, I saw this week’s FMS482 sketch. I thought it was such a […]

I’m in love with coloring!
For those of you who know me well, that’s an earth-shattering statement. I’ve avoided the Stampin’ Up! stamp sets that needed to be colored because I never felt I could create the beautiful images that others were making. I did buy the new Stampin’ Up! watercolor pencils recently. I’m still hesitant, but I thought I’d […]
Understanding My Obsession With Memories & More cards
Yes, I’m willing to admit it, I’m obsessed with all of the Memories & More card packs that Stampin’ Up! has created over the last several years. It’s so much fun, and easy to create cards with them.

Tulips for Easter

We knew it was finally spring with mostly warmer weather (although growing up in Omaha we were known to get snow even in May!) when the tulips started blooming. When I realized Easter was just around the corner, […]
More For the Love of Felt flower cards
I had a lot of fun designing my swap card using the retired For the Love of Felt kit. I still had lots of leftover pieces and card bases, so back to the creation process. I made three more cards with the other card bases. This first one I used the entire card base from […]
Swap thank you card from For the Love of Felt kit
As usual, I’m a little behind in playing with all my Stampin’ Up! goodies. In keeping with my 2021 resolutions, I pulled out my retired “For the Love of Felt” kit to create a swap card for one of my groups. The kit contains all the pieces I need to create 4 of several card […]
