Cottage Greetings - Happy Anniversary Colleen

Hi Everyone. This is a very quick post. I created a card to send to Colleen and her hubby to celebrate their 47th anniversary! This is such a wonderful milestone and I know that you will all be sending them good wishes. As Colleen spends so much love and time creating and maintaining her wonderful garden, I thought this new kit was the perfect choice to create a card. I used the "Congrats" from the wooden elements from the new Natural Expressions Elements. I thought they fit so well with this kit as the kit has balsawood layering elements. Colleen,... Read more →

Shaker Ombre Love for Card Concept and Just Us Girls

Hi Everyone. Happy Wednesday. I am so glad that we are past the "hump" of the week and are on our way to the weekend :-) I seem to be a little obsessed with shaker cards this week and was inspired to create a valentine's themed one when I saw the challenge across at Just Us Girls - and the great color scheme and inspiration photograph at Card Concept seemed to be a perfect match for my inspiration. I started by die cutting the L O V E letters in #110 white card stock. On reflection, I wish I had... Read more →

Celebrate - for Case this sketch

Hi Everyone. Happy Tuesday. I saw this great challenge across at Casethissketch. Now... the sketch had a little twist! They have joined with Tag You're It this week and the challenge twist was to add a tag to the sketch. Now, my readers will know that I am never one to shy away from a tag: I needed an engagement card for a very special couple and decided that this was the perfect challenge to use as the inspiration for my card. All I needed was some Shimmer White card stock, a heart stencil, some embossing paste, some distress glitter,... Read more →

Love you to the Stars for Paper Players #183

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. Hope you are all having a great weekend and staying warm! It's the fabulous LeAnne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's a CAS challenge. Right up my alley! I needed a Valentine's Day card for Lou and knew that it was time to pull out a Simon Says Stamp Stars stencil and some of my new gold Embossing Paste. I combined that with the gold, black and white color scheme from the casestudy challenge last week and finished it off with a sentiment from the Papertrey Ink Star Gazer additions stamp... Read more →
