I had so much fun making this card for the Wood, Cork, and Metal Challenge on the Newton’s Nook Designs Blog, that I decided to make another one focusing on just the wood theme this time. The basket of flowers (from the “Baskets of Wishes” set) was stamped in Toffee Crunch Memento Luxe ink and […]

Cherry Blossom Fans Card
Hey ya’ll…just stopping in for a quick share of a card I made with my Simon Says Stamp April 2014 Card Kit. I didn’t really have anyone to send lightbulbs to…so when I saw the stamp set included in the kit, the light rays actually looked like little fans to me. And since it’s almost […]
Kraft Easter Card
I spent some time making cards this weekend, so I have a quick share today using some Newton’s Nook stamps and paper from Basic Grey. I stamped the image from the “Basket of Wishes” set in Versamark ink and heat embossed it in black…then colored the image using Prismacolor pencils (which blend beautifully on Neenah […]
Flowerfull Heart Valentine

I stamped the image onto some watercolor paper using Versamark ink and heat embossed it in white. Then I scribbled several different colors of SU markers over the top and blended them together […]

The Masculine Side of Woodland Wreaths
I was inspired by Debby Hughes’ silver and grey masculine card from Day 5 of the Holiday Card Workshop at OnlineCardClasses.com, so I took the card I made here and used this same color scheme to make my masculine version. I simply embossed the wreath from “Woodland Wreaths” (Wplus9) in silver and the sentiment from “Silver […]
Simple Woodland Wreaths Card
This card came together pretty quickly after I decided against triple- or quadruple-stamping the wreath with this set from Wplus9 (“Woodland Wreaths”)…as it turns out, the one layer works perfectly by itself. The wreath was stamped in Old Olive ink from Stampin’ Up and decorated with pearls that I either left white or colored a […]
