PLAYING WITH STENCILS - A SIMPLE TAG!
Hello, Crafty Creators!
I had so much fun creating this little tag. I was reviewing a set of diamond/harlequin stencils and wanted to make a quick project video to accompany the review. I was unsure of where I was going with this, but I am pleased with the results!
THINKING OF YOU - GENERAL GREETING CARD!
Hello, Crafty Creators!
I keep my desk covered with newsprint. It is cheaper and more convenient, so I can test my markers, dab my blending brushes, and accomplish many other tasks that once required copier paper or paper towels.
Last week, while recording one of my Amazon Favorites videos, I reviewed a diamond and checkerboard stencil set. My original plan was to stencil a few shapes on my newsprint. But, as often happens in crafting, I couldn't stop there. I liked my design so well that I used it to create a card. Newsprint is a 22 - 24lb paper, so I glued it to 60lb cardstock and trimmed it down!This project also allowed me to use one of my old Martha Stewart punches. I had forgotten that these punched borders can be so pretty!

A PLACE TO START - RECYCLE - BROWN PAPER CARNATION
Hello, Crafty Makers!
I created a carnation using brown shipping paper! I have a ton of this stuff. It helps me craft, and it is helpful in our compost! Twelve years ago, I started making these little carnations when flower dies were not as ubiquitous. I still prefer them to die-cut flowers with white borders.

A PLACE TO START - JUNE 2025 - ANYTHING GOES w/Optional Twist: RECYCLE
Hello, Crafty People!
I recently realized that I spend too much time trying to create "unique" projects. I am returning to the basic cardmaking that has always brought me joy!
This simple, straightforward birthday card was created for my daughter. She is a minimalist of the first water, so I am sure she will like it.
