Hi Everyone. Happy Wednesday. This is a quick post tonight. Tonight's card is bright and sunny - unlike our weather :-) This is the second card I made inspired by Shari Carroll for casestudy. You can see from this card by Shari, that she is amazing at layering strips of DSP with a tag and always manages to make it feel light and airy. So, I decided to CASE this card I used my Tim Holtz ray stencil and some Ranger Rock Candy glitter as I was creating a clean and simple card and the casonsunday challenge was to create... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Tuesday. I hope you are all having a great start to the week. I got the chance to play along with two different challenges on Sunday.

I love the sketch and was drawn to the pinks and greys of the inspiration photograph, the texture and just a little hint of green. I thought... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday Night. It's the fabulous Anne-Marie's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a fabulous sketch for us.

It's the fabulous Kylie's turn to host the Addicted to CAS challenge and she has a fabulous code word for us: Of course, there is a fabulous prize for the winner of our challenge....

It's really time to start thinking about the next card drive :-) I opted to use Gorgeous Grunge and I Dig You. Perfect cards for a masculine grunge style card. I played... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Thursday. I am glad to report that my blog is still up and running.... YAY! Looks like typepad fixed their problems. I have a card for you tonight - to celebrate two April birthday girls. My dearest friend Pammie celebrated her birthday on April 22 and my talented PP team mate, Ann, celebrates her birthday on April 27. I don't want to share Pammie's actual card with you until she has received it - so as to not spoil the surprise. The sentiment on the front of the card is wonderful I think :-) For those of...
