I made this card today using the Blooming with Love stamp set.  I just love it because I enjoy watercoloring…and topiaries!!  I had this piece of Soft Sky Prints DS paper and built the card around that.  I forgot to measure the card before mailing it out, but I put it in a retired Large [...]

I made this card using the shirt pattern by Cambria found here.  How cute is that shirt?  I could never come up with something like this, so I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who share so much with the rest of us!

Here’s a gift card holder that I made for my beautiful girl! She turns 16 today – my how time flies! Normally one would put a gift card in the middle slot, but I decided to put her “new” car key tied with ribbon sticking out of the slot instead. She has no idea we [...]
