  • Cruisin’

    Just a quick warning that I won’t be posting for about a week. My hubby and I are going on a cruise to Mexico next week. Woo-Hoo! This will be the first time we have been away this long without the kids. I can’t wait. We will be back on Friday. As soon as I…

  • Happy Everything Card

    This card is cased from Tresa Black, one of my idols. Her work is fantastic and I am constantly inspired by her posts on the CTMH boards. I made a few minor changes to my card, but looking at it now, I wish I had copied hers exactly. LOL! I used the June stamp of…

  • Scrapbooking Retreat

    I am so excited. A friend of mine, Cindy Baker, is starting to hold monthly scrapbooking retreats in Lake Arrowhead, CA. Her first one is going to be May 30th – June 1st. When I saw the date I got excited because my birthday is May 31st and I thought this would make a perfect…

  • Another flower card…

    As you may recall, I was inspired a while back by Kathi’s cute flower card here and another one here. I made this card a few weeks ago and thought I’d take a stab at another one. This one uses the new Boom-Di-Ada paper pack, as do many of my recent projects. LOL! I also…

  • Dahlia Card

    I finally made a Dalhia Card! I have seen so many of them and thought they were so pretty. I am hoping to have my gals make this card along with a few other “fun fold” cards at a workshop next month. Here are the instructions to make the dahlia fold. Once you make one…

  • More Boom-di-ada stuff

    This is another card made with the new Boom-di-ada paper. I used the new Spot On Background stamp for the polka dots (stamped in Buttercup ink on Buttercup cardstock.) The Solo T stamp was used for the word “thanks” on the twill ribbon. I used Barn Red Ink and was impressed that it didn’t bleed…

  • I’m still here…

    I was out of town for a while so I didn’t get a chance to post anything for a few days. Sorry about that. I have a few things that I am going to try to post tomorrow. We are switching from Verizon Fios back to TimeWarner tomorrow, so hopefully I won’t have any problems…

  • Another Boom-Di-Ada Card

    Here is another card using the new Boom-Di-Ada paper pack. This one also uses a new stamp set called Cottage Floral. I almost didn’t get it because I have so many floral stamps, but I love it and know I will be using a lot. I used the new Ricrac for the stems too. (Very…

  • Special Friend Card

    Here is a sneak peak at a new paper pack from CTMH called Boom-Di-Ada. It is sooo cute. It is not made up of typical summer colors, but it is a beautiful kit. I used the new Boom-Di-Ada paper pack, a new stamp set called Be True, and one clear sparkle to create this simple…
