Today I’m sharing a quick tutorial on multi-layer stenciling using acrylic paints with your Silhouette stencil vinyl. When I first begin a project like this, I like to lay out my shapes in Studio and fill them all in with color to get an idea of what the finished product will look like. I chose a […]

Simple Holiday Card with Plaid Stamping
Here’s another quick post today to share a couple of cards I made using the plaid stamping technique from Day 3 of OnlineCardClasses’ Holiday Card Workshop combined with the inlay technique from Day 1. The plaid pattern was stamped on a scrap of cardstock using a stamp from the “Cupcake Party” set from Simon Says […]
Clean and Simple Snowman Card
A good way to end a busy week is with a clean and simple card that comes together quickly. I stamped this guy out using the new “Heartfelt Holidays” set from Wplus9: I stamped the wreath in Old Olive ink (SU) on some Neenah Solar White cardstock (110#) and then heat embossed the sentiment in […]
Wood Inlay Christmas Card
It’s just by luck that I had some wood veneer paper from my Simon Says Stamp Holiday card kit to try this technique with today…and once I figured out how to cut it with my Cameo, I promptly ordered more. Piecing together a few designs from the Silhouette Online Store (using the Subtract tool), I […]
Two More Simple Christmas Cards

The first one uses stamps from the “Decorate Your Holidays” set by Hero Arts, washi tape from Little B, and the […]
Christmas House Z-Fold Card

Classic or Cute Reversible Table Runner
During the holidays we seem to host a wider range of guests than any other time of the year. Whether it is dinner parties with co-workers, family get-togethers with kids everywhere, or a cozy coffee brunch with a neighbor, I find I don’t always have the time to fully redecorate for all of these different […]
Pretty Poinsettias Card
Happy Friday! Just a quick post today with a Christmas card I created using the new “Pretty Poinsettias” stamp set from WPlus9… It took some practice getting the four-step stamping to line up for these, but I love the end result…definitely going to try stamping some marbled flowers next time. Thanks for stopping by and […]
