Welcome back to Day 4 of the Holiday Countdown! Niki here and today I thought I would share with you a technique that a friend of mine shared with me a couple of years back. Using woodgrain paper or cardstock, you can make a super nice weathered wood look with some gray dye ink and…
Hello and welcome to Day 3 of our Holiday Countdown! Niki here and today I have a clean and simple card for you featuring die embossing and a little bit of no-line coloring. I used a super thick piece of Savoy 236# Cotton cardstock cut to 5-1/4ā x 4ā to make the card front. You…

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…
