My poor, old neglected blog. I can't believe it's already October. And I haven't officially blogged since December. Of 2016. I could give you a ton of excuses, but I'll spare you. LOL The short answer is: life gets busy and I had been on design teams non-stop since 2014 and I just needed a break. :) But I'm back! In my absence, though, I haven't stopped crafting! In fact, I've been scrapbooking more than ever because I've discovered the Project Life App! Because of this app I have 1) caught up with 30 weeks of Project Life in just... Continue reading

Hi friends! I'm here with another new card I created as a guest design team member for Quick Creations! For my card today I used "Cupcake Avery" from The Paper Nest Dolls! I totally kept it simple and decided to create a square card. Sometimes you just have to step out of the "rectangular box", don't you think? :) I colored her up with my Copics and paired her up with some My Mind's Eye "Hooray" paper. Isn't Avery so cute?! Copics used: skin: E000, E00, E11 hair: C3, C5, C7, C9 dress: B57, B23, B10, B13, B15, R27 cupcake:... Continue reading

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas this past weekend. I was lucky enough to have a couple nights off of work so that I could spend it with family and truly, that's all that I could ever ask for for Christmas. I feel blessed beyond measure and so fortunate in so many ways! I had created a card for this month's Farm Fresh Challenge over at The Greeting Farm blog but never had a chance to link it up but here it is - better late than never! This month's challenge is all about SPARKLE... Continue reading

Hi everyone! I'm back with another new card! Can you believe that Christmas is only a few days away??? Neither can I, but I'm still trying to scramble with wrapping presents, gathering stocking stuffers, and doing some Christmas crafting! Here's my latest card for Stamp Anniething: I colored up the adorable Lucille - What a Deer with my Copic Markers. I honestly love her little reindeer hat on - it's so super festive and fun. It really completes her outfit, don't you think? I used a lot of Christmas paper that I had in my stash (please remind me never... Continue reading

Hi everyone! It's Wednesday and that means I have a new card to share with you today that I created for Stamp Anniething! Christmas is only 11 days away - can you believe it?! I really can't, but I wanted to get into the holiday spirit by creating a new Christmas-themed card! I colored up Brooke - For Someone Sweet because she truly speaks to me. I mean, come on, how cute is she with her little knee-high socks and candy cane! I kept the card simple, making sure I stuck with the red/green/white theme. I love traditional Christmas colors,...

Hi friends! It's Wednesday and it's time for another new card I created for Stamp Anniething! I decided to color up Annie - Warm & Toasty for my card today. The weather is cooler, tomorrow is Thanksgiving and soon it will be Christmas! In California, we may not experience the true feeling of having four seasons, but we do welcome the cooler weather - This calls for cute scarves and UGG boots! I paired Annie up with some American Crafts patterned paper and added the included sentiment - it's a perfect card for Christmas! Thanks so much for stopping by... Continue reading

Hi Friends! It's Wednesday and I'm here with another new card to share with you today! I thought it would be fun to create a masculine card so I decided on using James - You're so Hip. I think I've mentioned it before, but this James is a favorite of mine - especially during the Fall and Winter months. He's super cute with his adorable beanie and his cell phone! I left my card without a sentiment, opting to stamp the inside when the need arises - whether it be for a birthday or a hello or thank you. :)... Continue reading
