I was planning to share these cards yesterday, but by the time the third one was made it was already pretty late.

I fell behind a bit at the end of last week. I had no energy left after being done with work each day. The weekend has helped me recover somewhat, and I’ve been doing some catching up on the cards I had wanted to make and share over the days I missed. Not all of … More Catch Up Cards

Die cutting is a great technique with lots of potential applications. Here I’m sharing three … More Die Cut Cards
