I had nearly forgotten about this little sizzlit die to make a flower border and decided to dust it off and use it on my Flock Together paper. It’s the “friends” rub-on I don’t like so much because it’s so hard to see. I like the rest, especially the flowers. I used vintage book print [...]

This card is the same layout as yesterday’s - I just rearranged the elements inside the Top Note die, and the die is oriented the opposite. I made this one because as I was playing with the pieces on the last card, I took away the Top Note piece and the elements landed on top of [...]

I really liked these 2 projects we did. Since one of the promotions this month is all about paper, I focused on that. This first card is done using a template I found here. I cut my pattered paper into 6″ x 6″ and ran it through my my printer (to print on the “wrong” side). [...]

I cannot stop using the Beautiful Butterflies die from Sizzix! And again, I’m using the Walk in the Park patterned paper from the Occasions Mini catalog. I needed a very simple card for a possible make-n-take for a workshop I have coming up. I may do a version of this, minus the eyelets and button and [...]
