Black Interior Doors: One Day to WOW!
Hi Everybody! Sorry that I was absent for a few days, but I’ve been busy with projects around the house.

Wrap It Up! From Our House To Yours
Hi Everyone! Here is a card I created for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Card Challenge (Wrap It Up) with Distress Ink stained seam tape. This was my first attempt at coloring ribbon, and it was fun.

Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit
Hi Everyone! You’re in luck today. This is the second time I’ve tried to post this card, and this time it will be much shorter. Earlier I spent an hour writing a long, detailed post about this card.

Holiday Joy
Hi Everyone! I’m sorry that it’s been several days since my last post, but I have been very busy. I was supremely disappointed in the pictures of my first post. They were taken just with my iPhone, because my laptop is dead and I didn’t have a chord to upload pictures from my camera to… Continue reading Holiday Joy
