It’s always a good day when new stamps are released, so I thought I’d pop in and share a couple of quick cards! The new Cherry Green Designs stamps from Crafter’s Companion are super fun…with a mix of shoe, butterfly, floral, and feather images, I’d call them funky feminine. For the first card, I stamped […]
Spectrum Aqua
Simple Watercolor Card with Spectrum Aqua Markers
I am a sucker for beautifully illustrated floral images that I can quickly and easily watercolor. This gorgeous flowering branch is from one of the four new (giant!) Spectrum Noir Colorista Aqua stamp sets making their debut on HSN on August 16th (although you can order it now on their website!). Each set contains tons […]
Handmade Travel Journal
Oh, how I miss travel. My husband and I used to plan at least two week-long trips every year that would take us all over this beautiful country…and then we had a baby. For the record, it was totally worth it, but I can’t wait until it’s a little easier to travel with my son […]
Father’s Day Fishing Card
Happy Father’s Day to all of the wonderful dads out there! I thought I’d share the card I made my husband this year (since he will have opened it by now) that was inspired by a memorable trip we took to Grand Teton National Park a few years ago. We had stayed in a park […]
Rainbow Circle Swing Card

So, when I had the chance to try out the new Create-A-Card Pop-out dies from Crafter’s Companion that will be debuting on HSN on May 9th, I dove […]
Ten Cards Made With The Simon Says Stamp March 2017 Card Kit
I was so excited for the March Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp…the stamp set is adorable, the stencil is versatile, and the patterned paper is so pretty. But despite the promise I made myself that I would “kill” each new kit when it arrives, I struggled to make a single card with it at first…until […]
Watercolor Bloom Card
If you love the sometimes unpredictable nature of watercolor, then I have a fun new stamp set to share with you! The “Bloom” set from Crafter’s Companion debuted on HSN this month in a special watercolor bundle (still available here) and contains pretty hand-lettered sentiments and sketchy stems. These images were developed with the idea […]
