Sneak Peek: Ornamental Pine day 3

Hi Everyone. Happy Friday. I'm late posting the 3rd card I made with this fabulous new set because I worked yesterday from 6.30am to nearly 10pm! I did want to share card number 3 made with this very versatile set.

I love the gold pine cone matching the gold sentiment matching the gold mat and picking up the gold in the... Read more →

Sneak Peek: Ornamental Pine day 2

Hi Everyone. Happy Wednesday. I have another card made with the fabulous Ornamental Pine and today's card is a very different color scheme to the one in last night's post. I am in love with SU's Soft Sky color. It's such a beautiful soft blue - so much better, in my eyes - than Bashful Blue. :-) I really wanted to play around with this set and use blue and white.

Sneak Peek: Ornamental Pine

Hi Everyone Happy Tuesday. For the next few night's I'll be featuring cards that I made with a set from the new SU Holiday catalog.

In fact, I don't think I'm quite finished yet :-) For tonight's... Read more →

The owl and cardinal go out to play - Paper Players #209

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday, hope you are all having a great weekend. It's the fabulous LeAnne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a clean and simple with a twist. Well, as you all know, I am never one to shy away from a clean and simple challenge:-) But, I wasn't quite sure where to begin making a CAS card for a child. Then... I remembered I had the Hero Arts OWH set and knew it was time to bring out my owl for a little inky love. When I opened up my stamp packet,... Read more →
