Hello!  Welcome to our Creativations 2019 Blog Hop! I’d like to share one of the card samples that I created for Stampers Anonymous.  But first, I want to take the time to thank the people at Creativations for being so kind and so inspiring… here are just a few pictures that I took of some […]

  Every stamp release from Tim Holtz absolutely blows me away!  Make sure you check out his Facebook Live Video where he shares the stamp sets, stencils,and Etcetera accessories.  To be in his head…. wow! This card is one of the cards I created with his new stamp sets.  I always LOVE tim’s woodgrain stuff whether it […]

 Hello!  Welcome to our Creativations 2018 – Tim Holtz Blog Hop and Give Away!  Did you just come from Zoe Hillman‘s blog?  Isn’t she awesome?   I’d like to share with you one of the card samples I created for the Stampers Anonymous booth.  I’ll be very honest… I get a bit of anxiety whenever it […]

  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 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’ve been cleaning up around my craft room…. trying to get organized and as my friend Heather put it, hitting F5 (refresh).  I recently came back from Italy (I started a blog post on it… but never completed it… so wordy… but I hope to finish it up this weekend)…. and it was such an […]

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 […]
