Anyone still working on holiday cards? I actually enjoy working on them until the very end and hand a few out in person, so today I’m sharing a quick tutorial to make this easy Christmas card using two stencils from Clear Scraps in unique ways.

Woodland Christmas Tree Card
As the weather gets colder and snowier, far fewer critters are running around my backyard. But the grey squirrels? They’re at the peak of their season of craziness. We have a ton of black walnut trees in our neighborhood…and the squirrels LOVE collecting them this time of year when the husks have rotted off and […]
Winter Friends Card
Some stamps are so adorable that you need to buy them immediately and even though you don’t get a chance to ink them up right away, you just know you’ll find your way back to them eventually. When the Sparkle & Cheer stamp set was released by Art Impressions two years ago, I pounced on […]

So when Spellbinders sent me the new Kaleidoscope Triangles dies to try out, I couldn’t help but imagine these beautiful layered shapes as Christmas trees covered in poinsettias […]

Warm Fluffy Hugs Card
I’m a firm believer in creating outside of your comfort zone every once in a while to grow as a crafter and keep away the doldrums…but when I saw this month’s challenge over at A Blog Named Hero, I wasn’t so sure how this was going to go. Muted tones. They’re just not me. I […]
