Hi Crafty Friends! How is your year going so far? I love decorating for Valentine’s Day by adding red and pink around the house whenever I can. It’s the only time of the year I can get away with all of the girly stuff. For this home decor, I took a piece of Classic Linen…
Hi crafty friends! I’m back with another pink Valentine’s Day card – actually, I think it would be a good card to give anytime of the year. I started with a piece of Astrobright Cardstock in Plasma Pink die cut down to 5-1/2″x 4-1/4″. Then, I took a piece of Neenah Classic Crest cardstock in Solar White and die cut…

Do you like to color? Me too! I felt like making a hand-colored floral valentine today, which gave me the perfect excuse to break out my new set of Polychromos colored pencils from Faber Castell. I picked them up because I wanted to be able to color on dark paper – something my Copic markers…
