It’s true, I’ve been stenciling a lot lately…but with so many beautiful new stencils being released, it’s hard not to try a bunch of them out when they’re one of the cheaper and more versatile craft supplies we can buy in this hobby. Today’s post is kinda an ode to getting inky. With stenciling, stamping, […]

Autumn Treat Pockets
I love to find pretty ways to hand out little treats every time a new season or holiday rolls around. These small gestures can make workplaces a little less stressful and neighborhoods a little more close-knit. Several gorgeous shades of Basis Cardstock from CutCardStock were used to make these easy autumn treat pockets. Start by […]
Cattails at Sunset Card
Now that the days are long and nights are warm, I feel like I’m appreciating sunsets more and more lately, so today I’m sharing a quick tutorial to make this dreamy summertime card using chipboard embellishments and stencils from Clear Scraps.

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 […]
Christmas Bubble Stencil Card
Once Thanksgiving has come and gone, I can no longer control myself. You can hand me an Easter basket, pumpkin, and a pool noodle and I would need to find a way to make a Christmas project out of it. So when the new “Groovin’ 60s” stencils were released a bit ago, I couldn’t stop […]
