For the first day of OnlineCardClasses.com’s “Stenciled” class, I was inspired by Debby’s sponging technique to make this valentine: I’m only about 80% satisfied with this…but it’s late, and I have more cards and a design team project to make tomorrow, so this is my final answer. I sponged the background with Memento Luxe inks […]
Simon Says Stamp
K-Cup® Gift Boxes
I needed a few small gifts this year, so this K-Cup® Gift Box file from Lori Whitlock really came in handy. These boxes are super quick to assemble and only require glue on two ends. The boxes and tags were all cut from cardstock using the DCWV “The Four Seasons” stack. Although the cut file […]
Anniversary Card
Just a quick post today showing a clean and simple anniversary card I made mixing some old and new stamp sets: I first heat embossed the banner in white with a stamp from the “Beautiful Words” set by Simon Says Stamp. Then I layered a sentiment from the same set over top and heat embossed […]
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 […]

I designed the bubble overlay in Silhouette Studio (free cut file linked below) and cut this out of one of the 6×6 patterned […]
Love Tags Card
Just a quick post with a card I made today while I was playing around with some new stamps: I created the background by stamping the tag outline and sentiment from the “Tag Sayings” set (Simon Says Stamp) in Pink Pirouette and Smoky Slate inks (Stampin’ Up). The tags looked a little bare to me […]
Halloween Card using the SSS October Card Kit
I’ve seen a lot of pretty autumn cards using the tree stamp from the Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit, but I like to take some of my Halloween cards to a slightly darker place: I love the patterned papers from the “Into the Woods” collection from Lawn Fawn but needed to tone it down […]
Paper Smooches Pull-up Birthday Card
I needed a cute and colorful birthday card for a special little guy who’s at the age when anything that moves or makes funny noises makes him laugh for days, so I pulled out my favorite birthday characters set from Paper Smooches and made him a pull-up card. The groundhog and worm are from the […]
