Hello Everyone!

For today's project let's make an open faced card front, and only using supplies we already have in our stash and no fancy gadgets!
I am going to use one my 6 x 6 paper pads I have had for awhile sitting in my stash!  I used one of the sheets with the cut outs and then matted them onto a solid piece of kraft or black card stock.

One they were ready A cut a piece of scratch card stock at 4 1/4 in x 5 1/2, the size of our card base and started placing my matted images around making sure there was open space in between some of them.

Once they were set the glueing commenced!

My card base was cut 4 1/4 in x 6 in scored at 5 1/2 in.  This tab is what I connected my card front to.

I cut a piece of the patter paper with a great web design and made sure my sentiment panel sat inside the card just behind the panel!

​Hello Everyone and Welcome Back!

For today its all about inspiration...  Pull out what you already have in your stash and let's play! 

So let’s layer some stamps, but this time they are 6 x 6 background stamps!  The two sets used are called Hugs Tile and Wishing Tile.  Not only do you get a 6 x 6 back ground stamp but also some sentiments and accents that all work together!  These sets are perfect on their own, but they work beautifully together!

Fall Themed Note Cards! featuring Rubber Stamp Tapestry!

Hello Everyone!

Let's get ready for Fall, it is right around the corner!  For today's project I created some Fall Themed Note Cards featuring Rubber Stamp Tapestry's Peg Stamps!  I used two sets and some of their individual peg stamps...
I love the colors of the fall so I grabbed my distress inks and craft mat and started ink smooshing!  I created three small panels and then I used one of my steel rule dies by Sizzix called Tattered Leaves by Tim Holtz... I also cut out these images using some solid colored card stock.

Once they were die cut I started using my peg stamps to create my pattern paper on my images! ...and you know the Vintage Photo made an appearance!

Layered my leaves together onto a 4 inch x 4 inch design base in ivory, and then matted each onto the brown piece of card stock measuring 4 1/8 inch x 4 1/8 inch.  Once all my layers were together they were set onto a 4 1/4 inch x 4 1/4 inch card base!

    Since about the time I spoke my first word, I’ve been an avid crafter alongside my mom and sister. You name the craft and I’ve probably made it and collected it. I simply find so much joy in working with my hands and seeing a happy customer with one of my creations. There’s nothing better! But I also love helping people become stronger and seeing them find THEIR happy through THEIR creations.​
