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”

“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.

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”

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.
