All My Life Suite

Every month we Westcoast Creators get a lovely package in the mail and we attend a meeting by Zoom!  This card was designed by Ronda Wade.  I love the paper in the All My Love Suite.  I like the simplicity of this card as well as how pretty it is!

More than 3 Little Pigs

This was my favourite swap in Orlando.  It was an organized swap!  We had to make detailed cards for this swap.  My sister and I marvel at Rebecca Pfeifer for making 15 of these because it took a whole day to make four of these with two people working.   The Wood Crates Framelits Fold nearly in this card and This Little Piggy has many piggies to spread out in this neat Z fold card.

Hold Onto Hope

I needed some cards for a craft fair at my church so I pulled out my Hold onto Hope Set and found a design by BJ Peters which used a thinlit from the Window Box Set.  I did mine differently but I loved the idea of cutting out the background.

Cleaning up my desk!

Sometimes it really pays to clean up your desk!  I had the white dashing deers left over and the snowflakes too from another card.  Then I found these red embossed sheets made with shimmer paint which I had made a few years ago and made this lovely card!

Paper Pumpkin

I took my kit apart and stamped all the months.  It was fun just being artistic and making my own designs.   Now to put the ribbon in and put it in the box and voila!  A nice little gift

I just decided to take a picture of the kit and show you what you get when it comes!  The ink and stamps, and all the pieces to make a great calendar gift for someone!

Santa meets Sketch Challenge

I designed these cards for a sketch challenge put out by Angela McKay.  
This is the sketch and I used DSP from Santa’s Workshop and took a few liberties with the design but it was fun to do!

Beautiful DSP

We sure had some beautiful adSP this year from Stampin’ Up!  Combine that with lovely stamp sets and Framelits from Winter Woods and you can easily make a wonderful card!

Paper Pumpkin Alternate

I am cleaning up my messy desk after so many weeks of preparing for craft fairs.   I found my paper Pumpkin kit I hadn’t finished and another stamp set - His light and put them together.

Humming Along in Highland Heather

Today I tried out the flower to the Humming Along Stamp Set.  You are going to love these new Cling stamps.  They just adhere to your block and you just start at one corner and peel them off.... carefully!   I wasn’t sure which colour I liked best and I thought it might be too much Highland Heather but I like the purple flower better!  Which one do you like?

A Tin for Your Cards

I have decorated this tin to enter into our Westcoast Creator challenge using excess product.   Here is the Red tin which I decorated and actually holds a lot of cards.  I thought the tin went well with the Farmhouse Christmas set!
