A distressed spring….
Actually, I’m not distressed over spring (although my back yard is a bit like a mud pit right now and with a big, hairy white dog – that is a bit distressing…..). I said distressed because I used the sketch over at Our Creative Corner and they asked for some distressing too. I’m not very good at distressing (although my children excel at it – you should see my furniture) but I tried. For my card I used one of the Lenten Roses from the new Spring Blooms 2...

Read MoreFlower Fairy picks….
I admit – I’m a total pushover for flowers. I buy them everywhere, even the fruit market (they have great deals!). And of course I love to get them as gifts. I got these two potted begonias at the fruit market and thought I might give them as a little gift to friends for Mother’s day. I added a few little flower fairies to make them a little more personal. To make the faries, I chose 3 images from the Flower Fairies cling set, stamped them in Memento ink and colored...
Read MoreHearts Bloom
Wow – this month is moving fast. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! I really like Valentine’s Day. We keep it pretty simple around here – but my girls get a little surprise during dinner. Last year I decorated Target mini mailboxes. I’m not sure what I’ll do this year. I guess I better get thinking! But I did want to let everyone know about the new Hearts Bloom Paper Kit in the paper garden Projects Store. I think the papers are so fun...
Read MoreHello Hugs!
Hello everyone! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 2010 – can you believe it? I know I have not posted in a while – things have been so busy – with you too I’ll bet. One thing I want to mention up front – I had a total hard drive failure on my main computer over the holidays and I’ve spent the last 4 days trying to restore everything from back up (yikes! what a mess!). If you contacted me by e-mail and I have not responded,...
Read MoreNew Greeting Farm stamps featuring Miss Anya
Nothing quite like new rubber stamps! As soon as I got the Rain, Snow, Shine Miss Anya set, I had to try it out. Greeting Farm stamps are so fun to color. They have enough detail to be interesting but still have space to color and blend. My initial plan for this card was to paper piece the coat and the umbrella – but I got carried away coloring with Copics and this is what happened. I guess I’ll have to make another card to try the paper piecing. The papers used here are...
