Lovely as a Tree on the Water
Well, I dug out my brayer again to create this lovely on-the-water themed card. The photo doesn’t do it justice, I think my lighting washed it out, as the colors are much more intense in person. The ink colors used with my brayer were Marina Mist, Island Indigo, So Saffron, Chocolate Chip, and Basic Black. […]
Wetlands Thank You Card Ideas
Today’s card features one of my favorite nature stamps, Wetlands. I love the new Lost Lagoon color from the new 2014-2016 In Color collection, so that was my starting point. Pairing it with Soft Suede gives it a masculine feel, which is what I had in mind when I started this card. The “Thank You” […]

At just $25.95 for this huge set of 19 clear stamps, it’s quite a bargain. And when you bundle it with the coordinating Flower Flair Framelits Dies (which I used to […]
Paper Gift Box Class
Here’s a couple pictures of one of the projects we made at the Paper Gift Box Class this past weekend. I think it went over well. You can click on the photos for a closer look. What do you think? The hostess came up a little short of orders needed to qualify for hostess benefits, […]
Flower Cards
We made these flower cards at our party last Saturday. Aren’t they pretty? This handmade card was modified from a card made by fellow demo Narelle Farrugia. The coordinated Secret Garden framelits and stamps work together beautifully on this card. The background designer paper is from…? Yep, Modern Medley! LOL!
