Stripes are my favorite pattern. Well, that and polka dots. Most of my closet is full of striped tops & shoes. They look so good with jeans, don’t they? And jeans are my everyday uniform since I work out of the house nowadays. You know what else stripes look good on? Cards. I have a…
I always seem to be in need of last minute birthday cards, so when I settle on a simple design, I like to make several to have on hand. This time, I thought it’d be fun to make a masculine and feminine version of the same card design with the same supplies – white cardstock,…
Happy Friday my crafty friends~ Hope you are all enjoying the summer. Wish you the most beautiful day with this card! Use translucent vellum paper to trace or draw the picture. And then cut the white cardstock using ScanNCut machine. The cardstock used here is the Savoy cotton cardstock, which is made of pure cotton….
Once my son’s birthday celebrations were complete, we were faced with the daunting task of writing thank you notes. Now, I was raised to write thank you notes for every celebration, and honestly didn’t mind it too much. I think perhaps that is how I developed my love for stationery design. But then I had…
It’s that time of year again where the stores are full of back to school supplies. I always loved getting new notebooks and folders. My kids love going back to school with all of their new goodies. I make lunch for my girls everyday and they love getting little notes in their lunch boxes. I…

Her wedding is planned for September 1st, so we needed to get a designed nailed down and get them printed over just…
Here’s part two of an earlier post Silver Congrats Card. It’s part two because I used the same layering dies, Birch Press Kaleidoscope, as I did in the part one post. This time I used different parts of the die-cut and of course different paper. I love playing with metallic papers and the Rose Gold Foil is…
I cannot resist “retro style” typography. When it’s a shadowed die cut–even better! Today’s card features all that and a layer of stenciled embossing– another favorite :). The star of the show however is the gorgeous silver and gold card stock from the CutCardstock shop. Pow Silver Glitter paper and Currency Cover Gold card stock….
Hello! Back on Independence day, I posted a fireworks card on my blog (linked at the bottom of this post). I really liked the stencil, so I challenged myself to create a brighter colored version using the same type of layout. This is what I came up with. For the fireworks, I masked off an…
Do you ever make cards and not finish them? I’m notorious for doing that. Many times I leave them unfinished intentionally. I like having lots of cards available to finish later so I can personalize them for the recipient and the occasion. Later I’ll go back, add an insert inside of the card, as well…

These thank you cards are very easy to make, and they come in pairs. Prepare the…
Last week we celebrated my baby’s 8th birthday (tears!). He is a HUGE basketball fan, so we planned a basketball-themed party with his buddies at our local gym. He and I were surfing Pinterest for party favor ideas and he loved an idea that featured all orange items and had an “Orange you glad you…
