It’s fun to make birthday cards seasonal – especially when you have great seasonal products like the Harvest Hellos bundle. You can punch out pumpkins (and apples) to your heart’s content! I chose three fall colors – Terracotta Tile, Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze – and used the Buffalo Check … Continue reading
“Piece of Cake” is true to its name. It is easy to create and decorate layer cakes with this stamp set and its coordinating Cake Builder Punch. I used the colors from the Dinoroar designer paper as my inspiration here, and I pieced together a cake with an extra layer. … Continue reading
The Bird Ballad Laser-Cut Cards make a “wow” card without the “wow” effort! The intricate laser-cut lace is beautiful layered over any color cardstock. I simply cut a 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″ piece of Seaside Spray and attached it to the underside of the lace to create this card … Continue reading

I made a simple and pretty card with “Pocketful of Happiness” and the striped print from the Bird Ballad designer paper collection. I bought “Pocketful of Happiness” for its greetings – I like what they say, and I like their shape. Though I didn’t use a punch on today’s card, … Continue reading
I pulled out my favorite color palette to use with “Daisy Lane” – that would be Coastal Cabana and any other Brights! In this case, I added Melon Mambo, Pineapple Punch, Grapefruit Grove and Granny Apple Green. I love these bright daisies! They look like Gerbera Daisies to me, and … Continue reading
Last night on Facebook Live, I used the Stamparatus to stamp the greetings for four cards in four different ways. This greeting from “Perennial Birthday” was first. Instead of stamping the greeting repeatedly by moving the plate between hinge locations (hinge step), I moved the Whisper White on the platform. … Continue reading
