Gold Dragonfly
This week’s Create with Connie and Mary challenge is a pretty color challenge. For me, it was also a great reminder to use Perfect Plum. It is a color that I have been neglecting. The dragonfly from “Awesomely Artistic” is so eyecatching, and I heat embossed it on vellum for this … Continue reading

Very Merry Tree
I have been in a Christmas-in-July kind of mood lately, but I created this Christmas card with all occasion sets. “Build a Birthday” was already proving to be very versatile, and I like it even better now that I can also make a tree with it. I stamped my tree … Continue reading
