Hello Blogging Friends!! Welcome to my project for the “It’s A Girl Thing” Turner Syndrome Awareness Inaugural Blog Hop! Turner Syndrome is a genetic disorder where a female is born with only one X chromosome, instead of two, leaving her with life-long medical issues and learning disabilities. This condition occurs one in 2,500 female births worldwide, but
Masculine cards are tough for me, how about you? I’m either designing cards with cute critters or coffee. So this is as close as it gets: I work in an office with 17 employees. We’ll be celebrating two February birthdays and I’m the official card maker. I went through my stash and thought I might
Happy Monday! I’m beyond grateful that I have self motivated kids. I’ll always call them my kids, even when they’re in their 40’s, for now they are 21 + 23. 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

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. Oh good grief, their facial expressions are killing me.
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.

I love seeing all the beautiful Mother’s Day cards being posted on FB + IG. Do you notice they are generally floral designs? Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE flowers, both real ones and crafty ones. If you took a glance at my IG feed though, I don’t gravitate towards them. Most of my card

When designing this card I realized that I never copic color on colored cardstock. I colored in the word coffee with BG13. I held my
Last night I was able to pull together a card. Here’s how I was inspired: I haven’t used the MFT All Star High Top Die-namics + Be Original stamp set in awhile. I decided to go white with pops of Orange Zest! Hands down, the most difficult part of the design….threading the ‘shoe laces’. OY.
