Cheers to another SGGWW challenge card!
Okay, Connie’s SGGWW challenge last weekend really sparked a lot of card ideas for me, so I can’t wait to see what she has put together for us this weekend. Meanwhile, I had to make one more card with this template late Sunday night. I used part of a card base from my Cottage Greetings card kit […]
Struggling with country flower gardens
As I’ve said several times over this last week, English country gardens are pretty, but definitely not my style in paper crafting and card making (and I’m not successful in growing real flowers either. Herbs, yes, flowers, no!). So I’ve been stumped how to use this striped card base and the flower wreath from the […]
Do you ever have one of those days/nights…
… where you don’t want to do anything, or at least things you really should do? Last night was one of those for me. We had a delicious salmon dinner with a chardonnay (did I mention that my sweet hubby does all our cooking? I’m a dietitian, but he’s a much better chef/cook than me so we […]
Sunshine coming through! Well, at least in my craft room!
I call this my “Sunshine” set of cards from the Watercolor Wishes card kit. The yellow & white striped cards below are printed front and back on the card so you could easily cut them both in half and attach each piece to standard Whisper White card base to get 4 cards instead of the two below. That would increase your cards from the […]
Celebration, three times over
I love this set of cards from the Watercolor Wishes card kit. The new Tip Top Taupe color is muted, but creates a elegant statement for these celebration cards. The striped card below was another of the ones that was printed front and back so you could easily cut it in half and attach each piece to standard Whisper White card base to get 2 cards instead of […]
Cheers to you with Pool Party colors
I made these beautiful cards that have a delicate Pool Party colored washed look. These would cheer anyone up when they received one. And they are so easy to make using the Watercolor Wishes card kit. Of course, by now you know I add a little bright color to make things pop. They look so cheery […]
Guy cards from Watercolor Wishes
I finished creating 21 total cards from the Watercolor Wishes card kit yesterday. The kit makes 20, but the blue & white striped card below were printed front and back on the card so I cut it in half and attach each piece to standard Whisper White card base to get 2. I did this for one (hence 21 cards) […]
Ah…back in my craft room, finally!
I finally made it back into my craft room this weekend after over a week of no paper crafting. How did I manage you ask? Not sure, but it felt great to have spent most of the weekend making new projects! I opened my new Watercolor Wishes card kit and it’s so pretty, pictures don’t […]
