My best friend loves blue/green pumpkins, so as soon as I got this die set, I knew I’d have to make some. Of course I had to put them on a card! This project all started with the pumpkins. I made both an orange set and a green one, but used just the green onesContinue reading “Autumn pumpkins”

The Scarecrow
Despite the 100+ degree temperatures around here, I am ready for fall. Dreaming of cooler nights, heading to the pumpkin patch and wearing sweaters again. I fell in love with this scarecrow stamp by Tim Holtz for Stampers anonymous and felt it would be perfect for a little reverse painting. Products used: Instructions: First IContinue reading “The Scarecrow”
Anniversary
This was a gift for my lovely in-laws who celebrated an amazing 60 years of marriage June 30. I’ve covered their faces as they are not active on social media so I wanted to keep them private. I first traced an etc tag onto a sheet of mixed media card stock. This card stock wasContinue reading “Anniversary”
Cards, cards, cards
Hello all! It’s been awhile since I’ve posted but I’ve been keeping busy. I do have a larger project in the works that will have a step-by-step, but for now I thought it might be fun to share the cards I’ve made in the past month or so. They don’t have step-by-steps as most areContinue reading “Cards, cards, cards”
St. Patrick’s Day Blessing

Lucky Love x 2
Today I have two quick projects using the Lucky Love 3-D Impresslit by Tim Holtz. They are both fairly simple straight forward projects. Sometimes I find after doing a large, involved project just doing some simple ones is kind of nice. This will be more of an overview rather than a step-by-step. Hope you enjoyContinue reading “Lucky Love x 2”
Journey
I feel like many of us are going a little stir crazy lately and are dreaming of traveling again. I know I am. This project is my little expression of that feeling. The base was from a lovely chocolate fondue I got last year for Valentine’s Day. It came in a cardboard box, packed insideContinue reading “Journey”
From the Heart
It is getting close to Valentine’s Day so I thought I’d get out my Lucky love Impresslit for this swap card. It takes it’s inspiration from a video Pete at Sizzix did for Valentine’s Day last year (2021). I believe you can find it just by googling Pete, Sizzix, Valentine. This one is fairly straightforwardContinue reading “From the Heart”
Ten tags in two days
For my most recent swap, I decided to make each person a bookmark to start the year in addition to my swap. Each one was made in exactly the same way, using different ephemera and paper dolls. Once I had a plan, they came together very quickly. I hope you like them and perhaps getContinue reading “Ten tags in two days”
Tiny trees
I got these small containers at a local vintage fair. I have no idea what they were for originally or what they are made of. I immediately thought they’d be perfect for some small Christmas trees. Hopefully you can use some ideas here for containers you might find. Tim Holtz/Ranger Alloy ink in Foundry TimContinue reading “Tiny trees”
