For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had a love of books and even dreamed of having one of those giant libraries with the sliding ladders in my house when I grew up. Although my kids are still young, I hope to pass the love of books onto them too. And with them, […]

Bushels of Blessings Card
Today I’m sharing a quick card project I made using some soon-t0-be-released stamps from Pink & Main. This set is called “Scarecrows” and contains tons of adorable autumn-themed images and sentiments! I started out by stamping the scarecrow and pumpkin images in Versamark ink on 100# Neenah Desert Storm cardstock, followed by heat-embossing in bronze. […]
Welcome Baby Banner Card
I don’t think I’ve shared the news here yet, so many of my readers probably still don’t know…but my husband and I are expecting our first little one this September. In honor of that tiny miracle, I’m going to be sharing a few baby projects (cards, home decor, and gifts!) over the next week or […]
Pretty as a Flower Card
I’m so ready for springtime. We had a relatively mild winter this year until February came along…and then it was ice storm after ice storm! Thankfully, this week we finally broke into the 70s and it was like everyone in the metropolitan area suddenly relaxed a bit (including myself). Anyway, when I saw the new […]
More K Cup Gift Boxes + Tags Cut with PixScan

(And if you think you may have been to my blog before but aren’t sure, then that might be because I migrated/overhauled the whole […]
Custom Handwriting Stamps
I was looking for a way to make my cards just a little more personal…and with handwritten sentiments being so big, I thought I’d try to make my own handwriting stamps. Now, I am in no way deluding myself into thinking that my lettering can compare to some of the beautiful designs I’ve seen lately…but […]
Kraft Easter Card
I spent some time making cards this weekend, so I have a quick share today using some Newton’s Nook stamps and paper from Basic Grey. I stamped the image from the “Basket of Wishes” set in Versamark ink and heat embossed it in black…then colored the image using Prismacolor pencils (which blend beautifully on Neenah […]
