I’m actually on my way to the beach today for a short “babymoon”, but thought I’d stop by with a quick card project (coincidentally, very beachy…) made using some soon-to-be-released stamps from a Pink & Main set called “Mermaids”. I loved all of the little graphic elements in this set, so I decided to forgo […]
Distress Inks
Stenciled Balloons Birthday Card
I’m back today with a card featuring some soon-to-be-released stamps from the “Birthday Wishes” set by Pink & Main as well as some tips for creating your own stencils with your Silhouette. There are a ton of different birthday sentiments to choose from in this stamp set and I chose quite a few when making […]
Dream in Color Cards
I’m back today with a set of two emboss-resist cards I made using the soon-to-be-released stamp set “Inspire” from Pink and Main. This set has lots of beautiful butterfly images, but I chose the simplest ones to contrast with these bold and dreamy backgrounds I created. I started by stamping the images and sentiment in […]
Showers of Love Card

I also wanted to try out […]
Hello Panda Card

I chose this adorable panda peeking out from the teapot because he reminded me of my little kitten Blooter… she always seems to be popping out of the strangest places to say “hello” […]

Back to School Encouragement Card
I had some time to play with my September 2014 card kit from Simon Says Stamp today and decided to make an encouragement card for my niece who will be returning to school soon. The stamp set is a super fun one this month…at least for the kind of girl who grew up dreaming of […]
High- and Lowlighted Floral Images
I started out with Donna Mikasa’s idea of “water painting” from Day 6 of Stretch Your Stamps 2, and ended up with this variation that has both highlighted areas and lowlighted details: I stamped the image and sentiment from the “Peaceful Petals” set from Stampin’ Up (now retired) with Versamark ink on some watercolor paper, […]
