Growing Breezes

Nobody fall over from shock – I made and posted and blogged a challenge card ALL on the actual day the challenge was posted! I know – right?!?!
My colors are from this week’s color combo challenge on Splitcoast. And my stamps are from Unity’s Growing in Unity set – how gorgeous is the tree??? I’m [...]

Wishing You Cupcakes

This is a birthday card I made for a friend. Pretty simple, and straightforward
The cupcake is stamped on the Naturals Ivory, and then stamped three more times on Fabriano Medioevalis watercolor paper. I colored and cut out three times the bottom half of it, and just layered them on top of each other. Then [...]

Misted Manger

I used the Misting with Markers technique for this card – I like the way it turned out. Non tradtional colors for a Christmas card, I know. But they matched the manger scene, lol!
I left the card really simple, because I like the image used simply. I have absolutely fallen in love with Dew Drops [...]

Simplicity

I love a good, simple card. Who doesn’t? I was over the moon when I dicovered Unity’s Gratitude=Joy set last week. Had to have it!
I used dp from American Crafts’ *Play* line – it is full of bold prints, which I adore. I figured I’d try hard to keep the card simple, both because of [...]

A Little Something for My Daughter

A while ago I went shopping with my mother in law at Michael’s, and we found THE most amazing sales. This little box was only $2.00 – can you believe that? We both got tons of other amazing deals. I love it when I come across a crazy good sale!
It did take a bit of [...]

Appealing Daisies

I made this card on Thursday, with Scrappy Sunday in mind. The Ways to Use It Challenge was all about using silhouttes on your card – so it was the perfect excuse for me to ink up the new stamps I got from SU.
My striped cardstock is from a Prima collection, and I didn’t do [...]

Triple Kiwi Cheer

I just love the Limited Supply Challenges over at Splitcoast. I really do. This week Wendy came up with a great one – check it out! I used the Holiday Cheer set from Lizzie Anne Designs. I rock ‘n rolled the trees in Kiwi Kiss and Close to Cocoa. Of course, there is an awesome [...]

Framed Manger

I made this using a $.50 frame I got at the Dollar Store. The manger scene is embossed in Dark Brown (SU, discontinued) EP, the star is embossed in Mustard (SU, discontinued). I paper pierced around the edges, and adhered the 2.5″ square piece onto a 3″ square piece of Chocolate Chip. Of course, because [...]

Shake Those Feathers, Baby!

Oh my stars I love this set. Ok, I love all of my Unity sets. And singles.  But really – how cute is this birdie? And his little sentiment???
I went with the color combo challenge for this card, and pulled out some Prima dp. I also decided to live dangerously and make a Tilt Card [...]

I Love So & So!!

I got this stamp free with my last Unity order, and wasn’t sure how much I’d use it. Well, now that I have used it once, I know I’ll be using it all the time! I love it!
I stamped the image in Brilliance Coffee Bean ink and heat set it. Then I watercolored it using [...]

Silver Bethlehem

I can’t believe it is time to really start getting serious about holiday cards! To help me get going, I stocked up on a bunch of holiday sets from Lizzie Anne Designs. This one is from their July release, and it is called Silent Night. It is such a gorgeous set!
I stamped the main image [...]

Frog Princess – Scrappy Sunday II

For my second installment of Scrappy Sunday, I went to the box of smaller scraps I had. I managed to find a piece of Basic Grey that I didn’t have to cut at all – how perfect is that?  I made a very simple card, using the Lizzie Anne Designs set Once Upon a Time. I [...]

Part Two

This is my *more* version of my super simple Christmas card. It is still really simpe, because that it what I was going for, lol. But I wanted to add a little bit, and because of the lumps it will cost more to mail. If you saw the other one, you know that my goal [...]

Nice and Simple!

Remember when I posted this card, and said I had more simple holiday ones to share? Well, I forgot to share! I am so totally in love with this card. It is, to me, so simple and warm and cute! It will definitely be one of my cards for the “easy-to-reproduce-doesn’t-cost-anything-extra-to-mail” pile, lol. Also, I have [...]

No sample today :(

I forgot to upload something last night, so I don’t have anything fun to share with you today! BUT, I can tell you about a couple of fun sales!

The Product of the Week at Lizzie Anne Designs is Celebration Sayings. It is 10% off all week long!
Unity Stamp Company is having a huge, Thursday only [...]
