Elegant Snowbells

03/25/2025

These soft and elegant Snowbell cards feature products from the Simon Says Stamp “Rain or Shine” release! I ink-blended both the florals and backgrounds, adding depth while keeping the delicate feel of these early spring blooms. One card features the new Argyle Builder stencil set for a subtle geometric touch, while the other keeps it clean with a soft green-to-blue ink-blended panel. A few splatters and embellishments complete the look! Check out the full blog post for all the details! ✨💙🌿

Elegant Wedding Cards

03/24/2025

I created these elegant wedding cards using the @teampellbinders “Copperplate on Your Wedding Day Sentiments” collection, foiling the stunning script in Polished Brass for a timeless shine. To add a personal touch, I accented each card with different floral die cuts from my Spellbinders stash. One design features soft blues and navy with a hexagon frame, while the other showcases warm orange florals with a delicate gold twine bow. Both are perfect for celebrating love in style!

Hand-drawn Details & A Blog Hop!

I’m excited to share a fun design that highlights the beauty of the new Stacked Blooms Embossing Folder from @SimonSaysStamp. This card uses a simple – yet striking – spotlight technique – along with some hand-drawn details to bring out the delicate stacked flowers in the embossing folder.
I love how the subtle details bring the flowers to life! Want to see more? Check out the full blog post for all the details! ✨

Cheering For You

03/18/2025

This fun and uplifting card features products from the @SimonSaysStamp “Favorite Things” release! 🏆🐾 I used masking to perfectly align the cat, dog, and trophy into one seamless scene. A soft ink-blended background creates a dreamy sky effect, while a layered vellum cloud border adds dimension. To bring energy to the design, I used a black glaze pen for motion accents, making the critters look like they’re bouncing with excitement! A few embellishments complete the card with a touch of sparkle. Want to see all the details? Check out the full blog post! ✨

Chirp! You Crack Me Up!

03/11/2025

This playful spring card features products from the Simon Says Stamp “Favorite Things” release! 🐣 I used Copic markers to color the adorable chick, adding shading for extra fluff and dimension. The semi-circle die helped create a clean window opening, giving the chick a fun little space to peek through! Behind the window, I added a soft blue ink-blended background with embossed hearts for texture. The speech bubble and sentiment tie everything together for a lighthearted, cheerful design.

Salvaged Heart

03/06/2025

🎨✨ Fun artistic technique! ✨🎨
I tried something new with this card design using the @teamspellbinders Stamp & Die of the Month and Embossing Folder of the Month—and I love the results! 💛

For the colorful background, I scribbled Tim Holtz Watercolor Pencils directly onto the embossing folder, spritzed some watercolor paper with water, and ran it through my die-cutting machine. The result? A artistically blended, textured design with an organic watercolor effect! 🎨🌸

I kept the rest of the card simple to let the background shine—just a dimensional heart, a little twine, and a crisp sentiment to finish it off. Sometimes, trying a new technique leads to the best surprises!

How cute is this little piggy from the new @teamspellbinders On The Farm collection?

I had so much fun creating this playful barnyard scene—complete with rolling hills, a muddy patch, and my little piggy with gray spots for extra personality! 🐽✨
