I’m sending out 2 sympathy cards this week…such difficult cards to make. I’m a fan of non-traditional colors…the lighter and pastel the better.

So I’ve been on a huge nautical kick lately: I decided to use my Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors and whip up a background. The Reverse Confetti Cloud White cardstock takes watercoloring really well. I added the Flowers for Mom confetti cuts in Sand and Cloud White. The sentiment is from the Seaside stamp set which
Hello! So, I have a bunch of pattern paper, whether it is 12×12 or in 6×6 pads…I have a ton of both. So I decided I wanted to play with the Carta Bella Yacht Club and this is how I was inspired: I used the retired Verve Stamps, Adjusted Sails stamp. I aged the papers
