I know, I know…this is a Mother’s Day card, and it is wayyyyy too late for that. However, I think that these beautiful little pansies will offer a great birthday wish – or a thank you – or even a wedding wish. They are so subtle and so pretty that their sweet faces need to READ MORE

Sympathy with the Look of a Stained Glass Window
You may recall that I offered an Easter card that used the Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora bundle as the main part of the design. That gorgeous bundle has a full panel, lacy die that creates a flurry of flowers and leaves. Another classic! But when the die cut is used on Designer Series Paper, it READ MORE
Sometimes Simple is the Most Elegant
I remember going to an art museum at Yale University when I was a little girl. Although the exhibits were beautiful, what I could not forget were the cards that were available for sale in the gallery gift shop. I remember that they were small notecards that were matted in white with beautiful abstract painting READ MORE
A Flying Seagull Card Swooping in for a Cup of Tea!
When I saw this design on Susan Campfield’s website, I was in love! I have played around with this Flying Seagull design – at first because of the name and my love for all things beachy. But then because of the way this beautiful design swoops into the recipient’s hands with a fabulous presence! I READ MORE
This Bunny is Dancing in the Rain!
And it is not raining men – it’s raining flowers! What could be better? What is that saying? “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning how to dance in the rain.” And if this little guy isn’t a good example, I cannot imagine who could be. Our bunny is dancing READ MORE
A Beautiful, Lacy Easter Card that is a quick create…
I have been making Easter cards – at least a few for this year. I do not seem to send these out as much any more as the older generation of my family has passed on. The younger ones do not seem to be as “card intensive”. But it is a labor of love for READ MORE
A Two-Tone Flora Arrangement in Turquoise and Blue…
I really do like flower images and always have. But, honestly, so many of them begin to be repetitive as time goes on. And as my collection grows larger, I must be more selective about the flower image stamps and dies that I include. But… There was no doubt in my mind that the Stampin’ READ MORE
This super easy Fancy Fold deserves a Curtain Call! Especially with Country Floral Lane DSP
I seem to be looking for get-well or “looking in on you” cards this week! And I like to make them upbeat and pretty…and interesting. If you are at home and under the weather, a card is nice…but an interesting card is even better! That’s where this pretty Curtain Fold Card comes in. It is READ MORE
Need a quick, cheery card? This one has Irresistible Blooms…
I just got a call canceling a get-together that two friends and I had planned for the weekend. It seems that one of us has gotten COVID in spite of all measures taken! It seems like there is another round of COVID – or that it has supplanted the flu that is always around in READ MORE
The Day the Whole World Turns Irish – Lucky Clover!
Maybe it is just my family. But somehow, St. Patrick’s Day is actually a big deal around here. We send cards and make calls to family members who aren’t in touch regularly – almost a mini-Christmassy situation. But without the crimson red décor… This year is no different – except that the new Stampin’ Up! READ MORE
