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
If you follow me anywhere that I share my creations you may have noticed that I prefer clean and simple designs. Or perhaps it would be better to say I prefer clean designs, because they’re not always simple! Today I’m sharing three cards that fall into the clean and maybe-simple category. Lots of white space, … More Clean Card Designs
I have four cards to share with you today. I was playing with a variety of different sketches, a different one for each card, and I decided that would be the theme of the blog post. There’s quite a variety between them – floral, cute, CAS… Making four cards today also gets me off to … More Sketch-Inspired Cards
What’s this? Another post today. (You can see the previous one here.) That’s right! I know I’ve been trying to group cards together into one post if I have more than one to share today, but I thought this one deserved its own post. I missed participating in the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers hop … More Washi Stripes | Christmas Card

I even made a video a couple of years ago talking about different ways to use them, which you can find here if you’re … More Embossing Folder Cards
We’re into the second week of our colour challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations. The elegant colour palette we’re playing with is maroon, teal and gold. It’s a beautifully rich combination with a lot of possibilities. For this week’s project I made my own patterned paper panel featuring the colours as the accent on my design.

I don’t really consider myself to be someone who does mixed media, but when I found out about this hop I thought it might be fun to give it a go. At the simplest, mixed media just means using more than one medium on your project, so really most of what I do is actually … More Mixed Media Madness Hop | You’re A Treasure
I’ve been sharing lots of summery beach themed cards lately, and I thought I’d take a break from that for a super quick and simple Christmas in July card! This one is very CAS and all on one layer. I don’t love it, but still it was nice to take a creative break and make … More Quick CAS Christmas Card | Christmas In July
There’s a new challenge starting at The Male Room. The theme this time around is Use Die Cuts, and I was tempted just to recreate my card from last time!! Okay, not really, but it would have worked just as well for this challenge. You can see it here.
