Another year taller | My Favorite Things

Hello and Happy Friday!  I made this birthday card especially for my Momma.  For those that know my family, you’ll be chuckling because, well, we’re all very petite.   I adore the BB Birth-Yay set.  The critters always draw me in but that ‘Another Year TALLER’ sentiment…hilarious. I was inspired by MFT DT, Anna and her

Yesterday I spent a bit of time with my friends Katie + Novell.  We hit the Impress shop’s University Village closing event.    So sad that they closed that location but happy they still have their main store and online services! One of the many sets I purchased was the Mama Elephant – Animal Parade.

You Make Every Day Brighter | My Favorite Things

I’m popping in here real quick to post a card.  This is the first time I’ve inked up the MFT Puddle Jumper set.  That guy is so cute, reminds me of my youngest when he was younger. I’ve combined Puddle Jumper with Rain or Shine, some double stitched circles and the large cloud stencil. My

flying by to say hi | Lawn Fawn

I’m back again with another interactive card.  This has been good for me.  I’m using product that has been literally sitting around waiting to be used.  So I’m notorious for getting caught up in the excitement of new releases (who doesn’t?).  The difference between me and about 1/2 the crafting population, maybe 1/4 of the

you got this!

Whew, I gotta tell you.  I must have been a mechanical engineer in my previous life because I so don’t have that ‘thought process capability’ now.  Mechanical things always throw me for a loop and that relates to crafting how?  Crafty dies with many pieces…scares me every time, just like the ikea bag ‘o nuts
