Fluffy Homemade Buttermilk Biscuts made the southern way

 

Fluffy Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits

made the southern way



You may ask, what is the southern way.  Well, that's pretty simple...from scratch and baked in a cast iron pan.  Nothing screams southern like homemade biscuits hot out of the oven.

This recipe is a no-fail means to a light and fluffy biscuits.  
I hope you will give them a try and let me know if you were successful or not.  I bet they are going to be wonderful and you're going to say...wow, that was easy.

I had questions about the rotary grater I used.  Below is the link to purchase it.




I have listed the video below in case you need to re-visit it while making these.

Snowy Wonder Snowglobe Christmas Card

 Even here in the south, I feel the nip in the air.  Perhaps we will get snow this year...but even if we don't, I can enjoy a snowman using Snowy Wonder Bundle.  It comes with a cute little stamp set and some awesome dies that allows you to create a beautiful snowy scene.  


I had so much fun making this card and I hope you all enjoy watching. So without further ado:  here is the card






The first card was the one you saw me make on my channel and the second card was my prototype that I made when thinking what should I do with this set.

I have to say that the one I made on camera is my favorite.  I loved the Cherry Cobbler cardstock and adding the hat to the snowman just gave him a bit more personality.

Winter Meadow DSP inspired Christmas Card-Be Merry


 There are times when I just don't feel my creativity and I struggle just like you do.  The only difference in you verses me is I have a YT channel with thousands of people expecting to see something new, exciting and inspiring (no pressure here), LOL!  

When I sat down to design this card, I wasn't sure where it would go, what I was doing and how it would turn out.  I had a concept in my mind but bringing it to life on paper was another thing.

After a while it developed into this:

Shepherd's Care Christmas Card

 Shepherd's Care is one of those stamp sets that may fly under the radar due to the fact there are no dies, no bundle, no collection.  To say it is a humble stamp set is an understatement.  It pictures a lonely shepherd with his lambs, starring off in the night, admiring this huge beautiful star of David.  This star beckons us to come and behold the King of Kings.


And once again this King of Kings is born in a stable under the worst of circumstances and yet God uses this set to bring redemption to a lost world.

Humble Home

The Humble Home Bundle is such a cute & useful set to have in your collection.  The little house could be used in so many ways, not just Christmas.  Think about Housing Warming, Bridal Showers, Thank you cards, the possibilities are endless.

In the card I made today, I focused on a Thank you card for coming to our house, perhaps for a Christmas party or pre-holiday get together.  Using the Christmas colors gave it the feel of Christmas but you could change this out for any occasion.

More Than Autumn and Coffee with Friends

Frozen Edges Christmas Card

 There is something magical about a snowflake, a new fallen snow where everything stops and the night is silent.  I love the snow...I always have & always will.  Of course I live in the south so I don't see too much of it's beauty but that makes me appreciate it all the more when God graces us with a white blanket of beautiful crystals.


Frozen Edges brings that feeling into my heart and so does this card.  I did it in red but it would be beautiful in Blues, Greens, Whites or any color you can images.  What about lavenders and pinks...yes it would still be glorious.




I just love the beauty of this.  It is a simple card but it delivers so much cheer.

Triangle Card-Easel Card-Fun Fold featuring Winter Meadow DSP

 Winter Meadow just brings happy thoughts of snow lined hills and rolling meadows once covered in green but now glistens with the crystals of winter, snow, ice and the glistening beauty of winter.  

I am a believer that every season has it own beauty and many times winter isn't one of them until God graces us with snow and ice.  Then we see, hear and smell the glory of WINTER.


Winter Meadow DSP (designer series paper) evokes all those wonderful emotions.  This card is the perfect backdrop for this paper.  



This card may look hard to make but it is so easy and has that WOW factor we all want from our cards.

Apple Pickin' Fall Card

 Fall is such a special time of the year for me.  I love the reprieve from the hot & humid weather of summer....cool mornings, warm sun shining through the beauty of changing leaves.  Seems that each season offers us a special blessing directly from God's hand.  


I often think of going to the mountains to pick apples or I should say to buy apples.  There are lots of orchards in the hills of North Carolina and nothing is a sweet as a fresh picked ripe apple.


In this card I wanted to highlight the season of fall with our girl who has a basket full of freshly picked apples.

Sophisticated Sled in a snowbank

 Sophisticated Sled in a Snowbank


Oh the joy of a bright winter day, sun shining, snow glistening and a fun-filled day of sledding.  Does that bring back childhood memories you now long for?  Hot cocoa, a warm fire in the fireplace awaiting the chilled fingers & toes of all the children.  Wet gloves, boots & socks all drying by the fire.  Giggles of children recalling the events of the day, slipping and sliding in the snow......awwww those were the days.
