  • One More Simple Beauty Card

    I am kind of stuck on this stamp set and the color blue lately. This card is part of my March card workshop. It uses CTMH’s Simple Beauty stamp set and the “celebrate” from CTMH’s Happy Birthday set. I colored in the butterfly with Heavenly Blue and Grey Flannel markers. Then I covered the Grey…

  • Fun Photoshop Border

    OK. I know this isn’t a card or a scrapbook page, but I just had to share this fun (and easy) photo border treatment. First of all, I have to give credit for this adorable photo to a fabulous photographer named Wendy Whitacre of Blue Lily Photography. She took some great photos of my kiddos…

  • Playful Flourish Card

    This simple card uses CTMH’s Playful Flourishes stamp set. (One of my favorites!) I embossed CTMH’s Taffy Textured Cardstock with white embossing powder. Then I stamped a few sentiments in Taffy ink from CTMH’s Happy Birthday set. I used three mini flowers from CTMH’s White Daisy Just Blooms and added a Pewter brad in the…

  • Another Simple Beauty Card

    This is a card that I made using CTMH’s March stamp of the month called Simple Beauty. I stamped the image twice and then colored it in with markers, cut out the flowers and used 3-D foam squares to add dimension. The “hello” is from CTMH’s For Every Occasion. I also added a bit of…

  • Dress Card

    I saw this adorable dress card on Giovana’s blog and had to make one myself. The dress pattern came from this site. I used some patterned paper from Chatterbox and Blush cardstock from CTMH. The ribbon is actually from Big Lots of all places. *Ü* The card below uses CTMH’s Sweet Pea paper pack, Colonial…

  • Textured Cardstock Basket

    I finally tried one of those fun cardstock baskets. It was a little tedious, but fun to make. Here is a link to the instructions. I used CTMH’s Honey colored textured cardstock which I love because it is darker on the inside and lighter on the outside. I sanded the cardstock and then inked the…

  • What’s a girl to do?

    Sorry I don’t have any art to post tonight. I have spent most of my free time this weekend balancing my books and prepping our taxes in between my coughing fits. (My son and I are both sick.) I was happy to find that I actually made a profit this year with my CTMH business….

  • Embossed Frame card

    Staying true to (my latest) form, here is another simple card. I used one of CTMH’s beautiful metal Foundry Frames to emboss the chocolate cardstock. First I spritzed the cardstock with a little water on both sides. Then I laid it on top of the metal frame. I used my rubber brayer to roll over…
