The one thing I need the most during the Holidays is more time! The best way to help with that is fast card projects. I made these little gift cards in no time at all, and they would be perfect to add to any gift – or an even better idea would be to put…
‘Tis the season! The season to crank out those Christmas cards. For holiday cards, I like to create an assembly line process. I still try to create unique cards for everyone but streamline by creating many elements at the same time. For these cards, I used Curious Metallic Card Stock in Ice Silver, Pow Glitter Paper in…
Hello, again! I’m so happy to be sharing another one of my cards with you today. Let’s jump right in! To begin, I cut a panel from Classic Crest 130lb white cardstock at 3.75”x 5”. I chose to use this cardstock because it’s a very high quality, sturdy cardstock that can withstand both heat…
Hello friends! Today I’m sharing a card I made for my mother-in-law. She does so much for my family, so dropping random cards in the mail every couple of weeks is one small way that I can say thank you. Her favorite color is purple, so I always incorporate that color into all her cards….
Happy Halloween everyone! While most of you have been thinking about ghosts and ghouls over the past few weeks, I’m already knee deep in holiday work.

A happy coffee cup and a punny sentiment are perfect for sending smiles. My project today features a beautiful panel of Royal Sundance Fiber cardstock in Rose. This is such a delicate shade of light rose I thought it would be pretty to heat emboss some hearts on top using a pewter colored embossing powder….
It’s hard to believe it’s September already. I know the leaves will be changing colors soon here in Michigan. Those thoughts inspired my card for today. I like to send cards on holidays when someone isn’t expecting one. Thanksgiving is one of those holidays when I do that. I created these cards with that occasion…
I’ve been wanting to create a die cut wedding invite for a while now, and knew with all of that intricate detail I needed to balance it out with subtle colors. With CutCardStock having a sale on all of their white and ivory card stock this month, I decided to go for it. I’m usually…
