We’re hoping to add a furry baby to our family this year as a Christmas surprise for the boys. (psst! family, don’t spill the beans to the boys! ) With that in mind, I’ve been going thru all the stamping/paper crafting stuff that I’m not using anymore so that I can sell it to […]

Don’t think I’ve shared these yet. Don’t ya just love the cute strawberry images from justjohanna?

Johanna has so many cute topiary images that it’s hard to pick a favorite! There are crystal effects and Stickes on the strawberries for extra texture and sparkle. I […]

I love Halloween! This year I had fun making Jenn boxes for the boys to pass out to their class. I actually stayed up really late working on these, so right now I’m too tired to share details so I’m just going to post the pictures.

Basically, you stamp your image several times, color them in, then cut them out to create layers for one image. Then you adhere the images with foam tape/dimensionals between each layer […]

Today I’ll share the five cards I designed for the Christmas Card Class for my Mom’s church group. Last year I had used a Simply Scrapin’ Kit for the class, but instead, this year I was inspired by the colors from the Winter Bright scrappin’ kit. I loved the fresh color combination and found that […]

Apparently I was in the Halloween spirit this weekend. It started with Saturday. I was able to spend some time with some of my stamping friends: Jami, Taylor, Joy, Daisy, LeAnn, Bunny (Debbie), and Sencie. It was nice to take a break after the Christmas card class (which I’ll start sharing tomorrow) I decided […]

Another two-fer! I thought these cards went together, so I decided to post them both today. All images from justjohanna.

Card base is Cranberry Crisp. I never really used it when it was current, but I’m glad I hung on to it. Designer paper is from Cosmo Cricket, and this is the flip/mellow side of the […]
