  I love our little stamp-a-stacks… or as we now call it “stamp-n-snacks”.  I have the sweetest bunch of ladies that are so kind and so much fun.  I always wish I can stamp with them… but it becomes more social than anything.  And I don’t mind one bit. 🙂  This is one of the […]

Yesterday, I held a stamp-a-stack (or stamp-n-snack as one of my dear friends called it) at the warehouse yesterday.  I design 5 simpler cards where ladies make sets of them.  Some are good at sending their cards out… others like to hold on to one.  So, this way, they can keep one and still send […]

I was very honored to be asked to be a “Creative Guide” on “A Vintage Journey“.  The theme is “The Colours of Autumn” and I had fun creating the card below and sharing how I created it. I had so much fun playing and creating with some of my favorite products.  The distress stains are […]

Woohoo!!! They are here… the completion to these ADORABLE Mini Distress Inks. Sets 10-12.  So happy that they are now available in all 48 colors. Thanks to Tim Holtz and Ranger, I am able to give one set away! 🙂 For the card I created, I wanted to play with the Ranger Texture Paste since […]

I can’t even begin to describe the gratefulness I felt for all of the sweet comments during the Mini Distress Ink Giveaway.  I will be honest… there are times I don’t blog my work because I feel that it is so “simple”.  But, the kind words in the comments helped me realize that its ok […]

I made a little easter card to share with you today. 🙂 I love love love tim holtz’s distress stains… I […]

  When I learned how to do the Rusted Enamel technique from Tim Holtz’s Creative Chemistry 101, I was HOOKED!  I love this technique and I was using it on everything! 🙂  When I saw his cute Apothocary dies come out, I knew I had to try that technique on them. Speaking of Creative Chemistry…. […]

Do you remember the first “wow” technique you learned as a stampers/crafter?  Mine was Crayon Resist…. It was my favorite technique…. I almost “forgot” about it until I was asking my Monday Club girls what technique we could do.  Someone asked me what one of my “old school faves” was… and of course, this is […]

and by love…. I do have to say that I am in love with all of the tim holtz/MJ3 blueprint stamps.  🙂  And the Valentine Blueprints are no exception. Tonight, our card class will be focusing on Perfect Pearl Mist.  And with Valentine’s Day coming up, this is one of the cards that we will […]

I fell in love with the tim holtz’s new blueprint stamps as soon as I first laid eyes on them! 🙂  When I first saw the first two completed sets, I was in awe… but the coolest part…. was watching MJ3 (Mario Rossi III) draw the next set and then see tim do his magic […]
