Good morning and happy Friday! Hope you’re ready for the weekend!
If you were able to join me yesterday for my Facebook Live video, I appreciate you spending part of your week with me. If not, and you’d like to see how to make this super easy and pretty easel card, here’s the replay on YouTube!
Well – good Christmas Eve morning! I hope that you’re all ready for a relaxed and happy couple of days with friends and family.
AFTER you get all the last minute running around hecticraziness done today, of course!
Just think of all the calories you’re burning off TODAY – so that you can go for it TOMORROW!! (check out today’s Finn Fan Fix – we’re enjoying a cookie coma this morning!).
WAIT – check out the car…..never mind. Come back when you’re done…🤷♀️
So, if you were able to join me last yesterday for my YouTube Live, I appreciate you spending part of your Christmas Eve Eve with me. If not, but you’d like to watch the replay on YouTube – here ’tis!
Hey y’all! It’s three day before Christmas and all thru the house….
No wait. Too early.
Sorry!
If you were able to join me last night for my Facebook Live – I appreciate you spending part of this weekend with me! And – it all worked this week! Whoo-hoo!! If you weren’t able to watch, but you’d like to see how to construct this easy easel card, here’s the replay on YouTube!
Good morning, my peeps!
Well – I made a dent in my crafting spot yesterday. Sorta got distracted by alphabetizing all my stamps and getting them back in their spot. And rainbow-izing my Stampin’ Blends.
Don’t judge – these are very important organizing necessities!
And – with it all organized (for a half-a-second!) I can get back to card making! 🙂
Fortunately, I made a card last week before I left Cali – so…here we go! I’m using the pretty new Dashing Deer bundle in the 2018 Holiday Catalog and I made it into an Easel Fun Fold card! Take a look-see:
It’s Monday.
That’s pretty much all I have to say about that, okay? I really think those two words (three if you count the contraction) say it all, don’t you?
If you were able to join us for my Facebook Live video last night, thanks so much for spending part of your weekend with me! If not, but you’d like to see how to make this easy fun-fold card with the new Rooted in Nature stamp set and bundled Nature’s Roots Framelits, then you can check out the Memorex (google that if you’re too young to know what Memorex means….) version right here:
This new set, which you’re going to be able to get for yourself in like…LESS THAN TWO WEEKS!!…is so pretty and cool! And – when you add it to some Wood Textures DSP – take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all! It’s Tuesday so time for another Stamp Ink Paper challenge for you to play along with! This week it’s all about the fun-fold!
One of my favorite fun-folds is the Easel Card. I like it cuz it’s so easy to make that it’s sort of ridiculous – but the wow-factor is high! For this one, I jumped both feet right back into my wheelhouse and went with the Nature’s Poem DSP and the Rooted in Nature bundle, which includes the Nature’s Roots Framelits. Take a look-see:
Happy Friday! And happy it truly is – cuz I’m at the hotel, jus’ sleepin’ in ma bed! At least I hope I am – or at least laying in it doing a bunch of nothing! This has been a….loooooonnnggg week, y’all – and I’m flat tuckered. This long weekend has been the beacon of hope – the light at the end of the first part of the tunnel. Four beautiful days off. Oh. My. Goodness. 😉
This card for today is another easel card. I apologize for the quick duplication – but…my friend here asked me for a card (short notice!) for his wife. He/they are moving across the country and she’s leaving her teaching job in CA. He wanted a card to give her. When I ask him what he wanted to say…he kind of looked blank. After some prompting, he wants to tell her that he loves her and that he’s grateful for all she does.
Awwww. That’s totally sweet – even if he needed a little “help” to get there! Yea – he vacuums and cleans the house, too – he’s one of the good guys! So, I really wanted it to be special for him and be a bit of a “wow” card – so the easel card made sense to me. And since it’s so easy…well. It was a no-brainer.
I also had the perfect sentiment in mind – from the new (it’s almost here, folks! Wednesday!!) stamp set called Layered Love. And One Big Meaning also has a great sentiment. I pulled Awesomely Artistic for the beautiful images. Take a look-see:
So – the easel is just a secondary piece of the card! The Awesomely Artistic flowers definitely take front and center. Continue reading
Happy Hawwwmp Day! The week is half over. Or…considering that I have Friday off – it’s Over-The-Hawwmp Day! And I have the weekend off. And Monday! So…I am totally psyched to have 4 entire days – in a ROW! – to rest and sleep and make cards and maybe….join 3 million of my closest friends to eat at The Olde Pink House again…. and – did I mention sleeping? 😉
Today’s card is really fun. And so ridiculously easy that if you haven’t ever made one – the second that you see the “trick” you’ll be all “why the heck didn’t I do that sooner??” I used a couple of stamp sets on this one….Painter’s Palette (new on 1 June), Suite Sayings, and Watercolor Words. Take a look-see:
So – before I show you the innards, let’s talk about the front, okay? I started by SNAILing a piece of Very Vanilla card stock to a Flirty Flamingo mat. And then to a Basic Black mat. Continue reading
