This month, the oldest, my girl, started a regular full time position with the Seattle biotech company that she was contracting with. I literally whipped
I just received Craftin Desert Diva’s latest coffee set, Love Your Mug. I couldn’t wait to ink it up so I ended up designing a card duo. I used the same sketch with both cards, more on that in a smidge. My first card also features The Perfect Blend 6×6 by Your Next Stamp. I
Have you been following all the fun on the Scrapping for Less blog?! The new January Flavor of the Month Card Kit is now available and you’re going to go perky over it! Here’s a bit about the kit from Teresa of Scrapping For Less: Let’s “Perk Up and Start the New Year” with our
If you’re a crafter, you might know how it feels when you finish a card that makes you happy. Not because it’s any special design but the images are just too stinkin’ cute, that’s this card: Inking up another highly neglected set, Hello Bluebird’s Pig Day.

So, I should have been organizing but I was whipping up a card. The Lawn Fawn How You Bean set, I’ve had it (and the coordinating dies + add on shaker dies) for a while now and haven’t busted them out yet. This organizing thing has me inking up sets that haven’t been used yet,
I wanted to ink up the Newton’s Nook Designs – Newton Dreams of London. I don’t know about you, but I love seeing all the news about the Royal Family. Her Majesty the Queen is awesome and a Corgi Lover. Bonus points that she keeps her holiday decor up until February 6th..I want to adopt
Hey happy Tuesday! I wanted to ink up some of my newest goodies from Your Next Stamp. I combined the Brew-tiful Day stamps with The Perfect Blend 6×6 paper pad. I did buy the coordinating dies for the stamp set, they cut the interior of the mug handles (bonus!). I managed to upcycle a Starbucks
I wanted to ink up some of other The Rabbit Hole Designs stamps, check out Caffeinated Cat + Caffeinated Dino: The Caffeinated Cat has been teamed up with Your Next Stamp’s The Perfect Blend paper pad. Isn’t that cat hilarious?! Wait until her coffee kicks in —> Super MOM. The Caffeinated Dino, oh she’s cute
Happy Sunday! How is your weekend going? Although I’m not in Phoenix this weekend, I’m keeping busy and have been living vicariously through all the Creativation posts on FB/IG.

I love the look of ink blending on cards and for some reason don’t do it that much on my own designs. I whipped up this card [actually it took me all morning]. The ink blending color combo was inspired by the awesome Samantha Mann. Yup it’s another belated Birthday card [sigh]. I
I’m not sure why so many cardmakers, like me, are so late in sending birthday cards?! I have a legit reason this time, all my cards are packed away so I started a fresh card for my stepson but didn’t have enough time to finish it last night before we had to leave for
