Hi Everyone! As you know from an earlier post, I created three sets of cards as gifts for a Christmas exchange, and this is the second design I’m sharing. I knew that I had to keep it somewhat simple with only one or two layers. Also, I had it in my head that I wanted… Continue reading Altenew Card Sets
Altenew Impressions
Hi Everyone! I’m taking another Altenew class, and this one is entitled, “Clean and Simple Boutique Cards“. These pictures did not come out very well, and they really don’t do this card justice. It is so much prettier than it appears. It would make a beautiful wedding card due to the clean, subtle, and… Continue reading Altenew Impressions
Altenew Card Sets
Hi Everyone! This is the first post in a couple of weeks, and I am so excited to share this set of cards with you. I went to a ladies neighborhood dinner for the holidays and needed to take three of my “favorite things” to share in a gift exchange. We could only spend $6… Continue reading Altenew Card Sets
Home for the Holidays
Hi Everyone! Here is the one of the easiest cards I’ve ever created, and my husband says it’s one of his favorites. LOL! Everything is from the Simon Says Stamp December card kit except for the silver floss. How great is this card kit? I love everyone’s creations that I’ve seen in the gallery. Isn’t… Continue reading Home for the Holidays

Let me count the ways…The colors! The papers! The puffy stickers! The sequins! I’m just giddy with crafting excitement. Lol. I stamped the cute… Continue reading ‘Tis the Season!
Blue Christmas Shaker Card
Hi Everyone! I received the December Simon Says Stamp Card Kit on Saturday, and I haven’t been able to stop creating cards since! I didn’t even want to take the time for pictures. That meant that I actually had to clean everything up and put it away so that I could put the photography tent… Continue reading Blue Christmas Shaker Card
North Pole Christmas
Hi Everyone! I’ve been working on this card for a couple of days and finally managed to complete it this evening. This is my second card for the WPlus9 Get Sketchy Challenge. I’ve had this Happy Mail set from WPlus9 for a while, but had not completed a card with it yet. The inspiration hit… Continue reading North Pole Christmas

Hi Everyone! I had such a great day today! We are busy getting ready for Thanksgiving, AND my sister came over for a couple of hours of crafting. Look! I even took a picture while working on today’s card of my favorite tea, Constant Comments from Bigelow, in my favorite dinnerware, Fiesta. Life is great,… Continue reading Merry Christmas Watercolor
Altenew – Just Saying Hello
Hi Everyone! This is my third card from Altenew’s Die Cutting Class. This class focused on using negative space in die cutting. I had a lot of fun with this technique, because I only had used negative die cutting for shaker cards previously. I think this came out very pretty. I die cut the butterflies… Continue reading Altenew – Just Saying Hello
Altenew Persian Motifs Watercolor
Hi! This will be my second post today, and a very quick one. I’m sure that will make most people happy! LOL. This is a card I created on my first day of Altenew’s Academy on die cutting using Persian Motifs and Distress Ink watercoloring. I used clear embossing on watercolor paper for the flowers,… Continue reading Altenew Persian Motifs Watercolor
