Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. This is going to be another short post. It's almost midnight and I am nowhere near caught up with anything that I had to do today - or, in fact, this entire week! It's the fabulous Ann's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a challenge that ...

If you are like me, you always need Thank You cards. This week, the Paper Players (here) wanted a Thank You and the Can You Case It Challenge here was to make a Clean and Quick card. I pulled out one of my absolute favorite sets: Branch Out by Stampin' Up! I cut an oval from some chip board ...

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous LeAnne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a theme challenge for us. Well, we all know that vintage isn't my style, so this challenge took me a little out of my comfort zone. I really wish I was more like LeAnne. Sh...

Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday. It's the fabulous Nance's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a great sketch challenge for us. I really liked the idea of the element at the top left corner but, when I made my card, I realized that I had not rounded the bottom right c...

Dear Readers: Well it's about time I posted something new. Funny how the days pass by faster and faster and I look at the calendar that hangs on my face and I think "that can't be right." Although the calendar says I had another birthday this month, I have denied it, scratched it of, even cut a ...

Your card is fantastic! This girl LOVES candy corn! I mix it with peanuts and eat it all Fall. The way you sponged each piece and the letters is so creative.
