I’m knee deep in Coffee Lovers Blog Hop goodness but wanted to squeak in here with a quick card trio I designed: I love the use of non-traditional colors for the holidays but this Cozy & Bright Collection by Pebbles, Inc is just too cute. I absolutely love the Scandinavian design! Bonus points that I
How was your holiday weekend? Mine was great, lots to eat and lots of running around. Today is the start of my normal week after being off from work since last Tuesday. I have two projects to share with you today, here’s the first one featuring MFT – (retired) Strike up the band: Those guys
For my American friends, are you enjoying the holiday weekend? I sure am! Here’s another holiday design to add to my stack. Hopefully a majority of them will be going postal in the next week or so. This card features Reverse Confetti products. My card was inspired by my teamie Amy Rohl, THIS project caught
I designed this especially for the kids’ 11 year old cousin. He’s the youngest one in the bunch and well, it’s been a while since I’ve had a 11 year old, like 10+ years. Lawn Fawn to the rescue! I thought the You’re Claw-some set would be perfect for him. It’s a fun shaped card
So this is what happens when I start cleaning my craft room. I found 1 sheet of this reversible (vintage) The Girls’ Paperie – Tinsel & Twig. It was literally torn but instead of finishing up my cleaning job, I started a card trio. There’s something about kraft, red + black. Honestly, anything caffeinated is
To all my friends celebrating, Happy Thanksgiving! I thought I’d squeeze in another Fall Themed card in honor of today. The Echo Park Paper – Celebrate Autumn is so much fun. Look at those cute woodland creatures. I layered 2 panels of paper from the same collection and loaded it up with stickers! Super postal
Happy Wednesday! Amy Kolling inspired this card: My girl has taken up knitting this year and has really created some gorgeous projects. I’m thrilled that she’s taken it up so quickly…scarves, hats, socks, sweaters…oh my. I used the Knitwit stamps + SugarCuts. The scalloped panel is from the Card Front Element Builder. I used basic

I’m back again with another project that was inspired by Tracey McNeely’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags! This one was inspired by Day 17 – Avery Elle. I started off with the retired Avery Elle Circle Tag Die. I combined: Party Pals | Dear Santa | Polar Pals Those cute Party Pals make me smile. The
Happy Friday! Today I’m featuring the Mama Elephant Sweet Treats and Hot Cocoa sets. These stamps go together beautifully. The Hot Cocoa set wasn’t initially in my plans but I’m always happy to incorporate caffeinated images. I’m back with my pastel-y color palette. I’m trying out the set of Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Markers. More

I’m a casual collector of airplane stamps. I know, hard to believe, I tend to be a #fullsetsyndrome crafter. Last time I placed an order at Taylored Expressions for their donut collection, I threw in the Gus & Gertie – Best Buds set. I designed this especially for the hubby. He’s a hobby pilot,

Not a surprise that I like to collect stamps with thermoses. I was so happy to see that Catherine Pooler Designs added their Warm & Cozy set to their shop. It originally came out as part of their Club Sursee subscription. The cardstock I used is Stampin’ Up Smoky Slate. The sentiment is from
In addition to holiday cards, I’m really bad about designing birthday cards. I picked up a bunch of the newest MFT release at Ellen Hutson LLC. The beauty about this particular release is that it fits all types of birthday personalities. Today’s cards feature: Celebrate with Cake die-namics Celebrate Everything stamps I love how

Yesterday I was chatting with Thanh and how I don’t tend to gravitate to florals. That inspired me to ink up the Pigment Craft Co – Jumbo Botanicals: Winter Bloom: I love the Cozy Stitches Cover Plate Die and started with that. Then I layered a strip using the Pattern Builder: Gingham in Eucalyptus ink.
I’m shaking things up with some Lawn Fawn goodies! All products have been purchased from Ellen Hutson LLC with the exception of the tiny coffee mug, that is from the Halloween Party Animal purchased directly from Lawn Fawn. One thing lead to another and I have two cards that turned out a bit busier
