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”
Peace in Purple
I’m loving the new Snowflake impresslit and it seems to go perfectly with the Arched embossing folder. Originally I was going to do it in gold, but had a quick change of heart when I found both of my gold mousses dried up. Lesson: Use your stuff! =) Materials used: Tim Holtz/Sizzix 3D Impresslit- SnowflakeContinue reading “Peace in Purple”
Gather
Happy Monday! It is a gloomy foggy day here which makes me just want to curl up and watch movies. Unfortunately, I really need to clean my house in preparation for hosting Thanksgiving this year (which, as you can tell, is also not getting done…lol.) I have a very simple card for you this week.Continue reading “Gather”
“Wooden” Santa Hanger
This project started as an experiment to see if I could take a Colorize die and make it look like a wood carving. I have been following a former Disney artist who lives in Northern CA named Raymond Kinman (you can check him out on FB or Instagram woodcarverguru) and I was inspired to tryContinue reading ““Wooden” Santa Hanger”
The Raven
This is another card I am using for my swap group. This particular group is an assembly-only group and I didn’t feel like doing a whole lot of stamping/coloring. This one uses just one stamp, some sprays and some die cuts so I didn’t feel overwhelmed making 10 kits of it. Hope you like it!Continue reading “The Raven”

Butterfly Inspiration Card

Such a neat idea! Hope you like it. The finished card is 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ Materials Used Tim Holtz/Sizzix Impresslit butterflyContinue reading “Butterfly Inspiration Card”
Under the Sea
This week I have a project that I have a love/hate relationship with…lol. It took me a long time because I kept running into creative blocks with it. I finally finished it and I think I like it but it’s one of those things where it took so long, with so many issues that IContinue reading “Under the Sea”
Gertrude and Mom
I made this card for my mother-in-law to celebrate Mother’s Day and the great job she did raising her son/my husband. The little black line near Gertrude’s chest must have been a little scrap I missed before taking the photo, but it is not on the actual card. Hope you enjoy.
