Love how beautiful and classy this card is. Great job!
Creative Inking Blog Hop: What Goes Around
Our hop theme this month is circles so I chose the beautiful dies from the Eastern Palace Suite! A simple card with lots of elegance in Vanilla and Dapper Denim. I started with an 11" x 4 1/2" piece of Vanilla and cut the detailed circle from the Eastern Medallion Thinlit dies and then lai...
Wait... what!?! You can curl Baker's twine!?! I've got to try that out. I also need to remember that it can be dyed any color- such a simple trick that I so often forget when I can't find a coordinating string. But the curling thing- I've never heard that one before and I can't wait to add it to projects!!

Welcome to this month's Blog Hop featuring projects that go around, also known as circles! My project is a birthday card using the Tabs for Everything Stamp Set. Lucky you because this is another sneak peek of a stamp set that is in the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog. Lucky me that this was a free...
I love the black and white on the first card with a pop of color. So classy looking! I always forget about that sort of look... I need to use it more often.

So cute :) I love those embossing folders. They are on my (very very long) wish list :) Love the simple layout that you did with them!
Creative Inking Blog Hop-Circles
Circles-our theme this month. Do you remember the Joni Mitchell song Circle Game? The lyrics you go round and round and round in the circle game keep running through my mind! I have two cards for you today. Celebrate-what a versatile greeting. The debossed images in the Celebrate Duo Textured...
I had never seen this fold before- or the idea to use a sponge to apply the glue. That is gonna come in super handy!

Love those banners with the balloons! I preordered both, and haven't had a time to play with them yet (*shocked face*). I can't wait until I have time to sit down with them though. I may get going for hours though :)

So pretty! I haven't done emboss resist in a long time (other than the paper that is already ready for us), but I should really pull the supplies back out.

April Creative Inking Blog Hop

Creative Inking Blog Hop: #I'mbringingbirthdaysback
Welcome to the hop! This month's theme is birthdays, and, more specifically the #imbringingbirthdaysback movement! Which is pretty fun because today, March 20th, is my actual birthday - tee-hee! When we were deciding on our blog hop themes for the spring it did not dawn on me that this bir...
I think the gold sparkly flower one is my favorite. Nice and classy with the black and white :)
Creative Inking Blog Hop - #imbringingbirthdaysback
Welcome to this month's Blog Hop featuring projects about #imbringingbirthdaysback. Sending birthday greetings on social media isn't the same as sending someone a handmade birthday card. Making handmade cards doesn't have to be a labor-intensive project. My advice is to pick simple layouts and...
Oh my- that watercolor dot background is so adorable. And it is perfect for this card- Way to Go!
Creative Inking Blog Hop: #imbringingbirthdaysback
imbringingbirthdaysback is a movement just started by my friend Shannon West, who works for the Home Office of Stampin Up! She started this movement with the simple concept of getting back to sending cards in the mail to celebrate birthdays rather than just a post on Facebook--and since we ar...
Love Shaker Cards! I need to make more of these :)

So jealous that you've gotten your paper pumpkin already! Mine is 'hopefully' in the mail today *crosses fingers*. I'm loving the shadowed look on your first card too. I forget about stamping twice- gonna have to give that a try again now :)
