Half Fold Open Door Birthday Card

 If you are looking for an easy, yet elegant card, this one is just for you!!  It has a very simple design that is fast & easy to put together and yet it has a very stunning visual effect when you look at it.

Circles are the reason this card has such appeal.  I used the Spotlight on Nature Dies to create this spectacular & elegant card.  

The design is so versatile that you can make it elegant or dressed down.  Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Charming Duck Pond

 I was a bit underwhelmed when I first saw this set, 

" Charming Duck Pond" but once I got it in my hand I found out just what a treasure it really is.  I love a die set that not only coordinates with the stamps but can stand alone as well.  

Here is my take on my first encounter with this set.  You can be sure this will not be the last.

Two for One Angled Card featuring Wildly Flowering DSP

 What a simple, easy and yet elegant card you can make using this easy design.

All you have to do is cut two pieces of designer series/pattern paper at 4" x 5 1/4".  Stack them opposite of each other (the print you want to show on your card both need to be facing up toward you).

Measure down 3/4" on the top left side, and measure up  2" on the bottom right side.  Make a tic mark at both measurements then simply slice the paper.

Your next cut will be 1/2" on the left and 1" on the right & slice.  Easy peasy!!

Missing Middle Card Featuring Shy Shamrock Colors & Spotlight on Nature Stamp Set

 Shy Shamrock sounds so inviting and I'm not really a fan of green but this is such a pretty color, how could you not fall in love with it.

I have paired the cardstock with the new 2024/2026 In Color DSP to create an amazing easy yet elegant card.  This card is very versible and you can use it for any occasion.

As you can see I have it shown in 2 different color pallets and it is lovely in either color.  You could add a circle die cut or large flower die cut or just stamp a spray of flowers, the possibilities are endless.

Thoughtful Journey DSP Steals the Show

 Don't we just love a beautiful pack of DSP (Designer Series Paper)?  Well, of course we do.  Do you hoard it or can't wait to use it.  I think we tend to hoard but the true pleasure comes when we use it to make something beautiful.

This is the way with this pack of paper.  It is 6" x 6" pack of 48 sheets.  Each one is a pleasure to look at and even more of a pleasure to use.

The card I made today only uses a small amount of this beautiful paper but it is stunning nontheless.

Submarine Life-Sending Oceans of Love

 Sometimes we like to move out of our comfort zone and try something a little different than our normal style of cardmaking.

With Submarine Life you are able to do this that with your cardmaking ideas.  It is truly a wealth of images and oh so cute too.  I just adore the fish, octopus, starfish & crab with their snorkeling equipment.  How cute is that?

And who doesn't love the little yellow submarine.

That just makes you want to break out in the Beatles song from way back when (that is if you remember the song, "Yellow Submarine."

Country Birdhouse Bundle Birthday Card-Because you can never have too many BD cards

 I had a blast designing this card.  I absolutely love this bundle but it is so much more than a bundle, it is a collection which includes 2 stamp set, 2 matching die sets, 2 packs of DSP, an embossing folder, gems & a double pack of ribbon.  To say this is a Big Bundle is an understatement.  Every aspect of the Country Woods Collection is gorgeous and when you put them all together it is an unforgettable collection to work with.

 Who doesn't love roses?  I don't think I know anyone who doesn't love the beauty, the aroma, the delicate petals, everything about the rose (except the thorns.)

With Layers of Beauty Bundle you will capture all the beauty of the rose but you don't have to worry about a thorn.  LOL
