I think I’ve mentioned in the past that much of what we stamp onto a card panel easily translates into a Note Card, so let’s take the Christmas card we made last month and turn it into a Gift Card Holder. You can see the A2 card IN THIS POST HERE. I have never recommended…
While I was making my mailing list out, I realized a couple things that make this annual card making session more important to me than making Christmas Cards: Plus, who doesn’t love getting an orange envelope in the mail, right? Colored envelopes and stamping a little something in that lower left corner is especially fun…
This time of year has been a favorite time of year for me. It wasn’t always that way, as I’m sure as it is for you, Christmas is a favorite. When my brother was killed just three months after my husband left, our entire family fractured. I didn’t see that at the time, but looking…
I bought three different kinds of Designers Series Paper, but I love Rings Of Love the best for Thanksgiving cards! It was one of the free papers included in this Autumn’s Sale-a-bration and I’m so glad that I snagged it! Just look at how lovely this page is! Whimsical, bright, every color you can hope…

I really had fun learning how to make book binding cards, using a simple addition of a score line. If ever there was a class nearby, I would want to learn how to make books, real books! The size of the “binding” portion of your card can be anything you want. The orientation of your…
Even I was surprised ….. starting with The Nook cleaned up and organized left me time to experiment with different card layouts and measurements. While I love the Clean & Simple cards, Christmas card making just has to have some of the Boughs of Holly paper. How to do it? Use my favorite size of…
