  • Unforgettable Boxed Card Set

    I was completely inspired by Kathi Carlson’s fabulous boxes here, here, and here. (Thanks Kathi!) This will be the project for my club this month. You can find the instructions to make the box here. The cards on the inside are 3.75″x3.75″ and are almost the same as the larger cards I posted below. I…

  • Aspiration Boxed Cards

    Papertrey Ink is having another fun contest today. We are to pick one of Dawn‘s color combos from this past week and create a project using those colors. I chose the peachy and brownish colors she used here. (Do you like my official color names? LOL!) Here is the project I came up with…I just…

  • You make my heart flutter…

    My card was lifted from this beautiful card by Aaron Booth. (If you have never visited Aaron’s blog, be sure to check it out. She is sooo talented!) I loved the simplicity of her card but of course didn’t have any felt on hand so I improvised. In addition to the CTMH Intrinsic Backgrounds stamp…

  • Teacher’s Valentines

    This is what I came up with for Ryan’s teachers and the office staff at his school. Since we are trying to save money these days (like everyone else) I went the inexpensive route. I found these fun little boxes of chocolate in the $1 section at Target and decided to wrap them up in…

  • Kid’s Valentines

    My little guy has 15 kids in his preschool class so I wanted to come up with something quick and easy for him to hand out on Friday for Valentine’s Day. Here is what we made. They are little 3″x3″ cards attached to a baggie containing conversation hearts. I used CTMH’s That’s Amore paper pack…

  • Valentines Card

    I saw a cute birthday card by Wendy Johnson on the CK website today and just had to use her ideas to make a Valentine’s card. Here is my version of Wendy’s card. I used all CTMH products except for the smallest heart. The heart stamp is from Papertrey’s Borders & Corners (hearts) set and…

  • Distressed Card

    I made this card a few years ago and just found it again. I thought it was a fun way to show how to distress white core cardstock with sandpaper. The card is super simple and can be made with those little cardstock scraps you have lying around. I suggest that you cut your cardstock…

  • Anything for you…

    Deborah Davis created a sweet card using the Treasure Life stamp set along with some tiny hearts from the Solo O set to make a dandelion out of one of the flowers. I thought it was the greatest thing so I had to copy her idea. Her card is much more detailed and in my…
