A very happy Easter to all of you! I've adored My Favorite Things' sweet new Pure Innocenceline of stamps for quite some time; got some a few months ago and am just now finding the time to play with them. They tug at my heart strings because they remind me of my two girls! I'm glad I foun...

Sweet Sunday Sketch #63
You know what inspires me? New stuff!!! I love to dig into new papers and embellies. I still get quite a rush pulling out my oldies, but when I am stumped, give me a new paper pack, new ribbon or a new punch, and I am off and running. This was a banner week for new stuff. I have to confe...
Lisa, this is GORGEOUS!! It is so fresh and crisp!!!
Impressive, To Die For Tips & Tricks!
April 1st? Seriously? Oh, how time flies! My oldest Daughter just turned 17 a few days ago... I sort of wish I could push the pause button on time just so I could savor things a little more! One great thing about time passing is that it is time again for the Papertrey Ink Senior Design Team Ch...
Hi Nancy!
Sorry its taken so long for me to get back to you! I used a tutorial for the ribbon ruffle that was done in the My Favorite Things forum on Splitcoaststampers, but I cant find it for the life of me!! It was the in Howd they do that thread and most of the threads that were there seem to be gone!
Ill try to explain what I did....
I ran a piece of scor-tape across the front of the card and with my ribbon still on the spool I just kept folding it over...sticking it down....folding it over....sticking it down (starting from the left side) When I had all the loops done and across the card, I cut the ribbon and then used a glue under each loop to hold it in place. Does that make sense? I hope that helps you!
Thank you for the wonderful compliments you left me on my blog! Have a nice day!

Die-cut Masking
I love masking in general and especially love incorporating the many Papertrey Ink background stamps into masked project. But sometimes it can be a lot of work to cut masks for multiple images for masking the front of a full card all at once. Papertrey Ink's new Die's are great for multi-masking...
Looks like your girls are having a ball!!

Sweet Sunday Angel
I want to begin by thanking everyone for their notes and emails of condolences and prayers said on my behalf. It was overwhelming and so touching and I very much appreciated your words of comfort and support. Healing is a slow process. I am getting there, but as many said, you don't get ov...

Birthdays are the Best
True confessions: I still don't have my ornaments put away yet, but that doesn't stop me from sharing a spring card today! I pulled color inspiration from a couple of sheets of Cosmo Cricket Early Bird papers, Brunch and Sunrise. I tend to use the red patterned from this line, so I thought I'...
