Happy Tuesday I have another card for you today. As I had a little time to spend in my craft room I went looking for some inspiration and found the perfect blank slate at Inspire:Create. I looked around on my desk at my new goodies that arrived and realized that the blank slate was the perfect sketch to use my new Big Branches Mistletoe from the new November release from The Greetery. Here's a quick sneak peek: I actually went with two background stamps for this one. I did the first layer with the Pine and Berry background stamp and... Read more →
Happy Sunday - again! With all of my design team cards done for the year, and a little time on my hands today, it was the perfect time to go looking for a couple of challenges. I found a great sketch across at FreshlyMade The sketch was the perfect excuse to bring out a new die that I bought as part of the All Wrapped Up release from The Greetery. As it was also the thankful sale at The Greetery this weekend, I was able to get this beauty 15% off. I paired it with a background stamp called Pine... Read more →

Happy Friday. It's time for another INSPO list at FestiveFriday. The theme for our challenge this week is National Letter Writing Day. I don't know about you, but I really miss those days.

The time for them to write back. Then the time for the post-people on either side of the pond to deliver it. But,... Read more →
Happy Sunday It's the fabulous Joanne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's clean and simple week! As I'm in the middle of making Christmas cards, it made sense to use this occasion to make another one :-) I used two sets from The Greetery - one called Peaceful Olives and the other Peaceful Doves. The Peaceful Olives set comes with stencils and stamps and a matching die. I didn't use all of the stencils. I just used the first one to add a little interest to the background. Here's a sneak peek: I began with... Read more →
