Hi, there!  I've got a fun mini album made with Waffle Flower's Disc Bound Dies and the new stamp set Secret Admirer.  This all about the fun things my sweet granddaughter, Louisa, has said! I made a little box (or sturdy pocket) using one of the Disc Bound Dies as the back.  Then used a smaller size die to create the mini album.  Waffle Flower has the discs available in several different colors as single colors and sets of colors. The first word is simply "Hi!" - which at first glance, probably doesn't seem that funny.  But... it was funny with Louisa.  She lived in Savannah when sh ..read more

Harpy Birthday, designed by Big Bear & Bird for Waffle Flower is cute, quirky and fun!  And yes, that is H-A-R-P-Y.  Seriously, a dog playing the harp!  Who thinks of things like that? Today, as guest designer for Waffle Flower, I've got a fun card and a video for you. I colored up the dog and harp with copics and created a fun heart background by creating my own stencils with heart dies and distress inks. Here's the video: The December 2019 release is available now from Waffle Flower. Have a Harpy (cute, fun & quirky) day ..read more

Hi!  Aren't these two little mice the sweetest?  They are part of the Secret Admirer stamp set from Waffle Flower.  I'm so happy to be guest designing this week for Waffle Flower (especially when the stamp sets are so adorable)! Of course, this little guy is giving chocolates, which is perfect.  My husband and Louisa are totally into chocolates.  I stumbled upon Louis Sherry chocolates, which are wonderful -  if a little pricey.  And the tins are so pretty.  When we finish off the chocolates, Louisa loves to play with the tins.  (That's how I justify the price:  my granddaughter lov ..read more

Hi, there!  I've got a few posts this week featuring three adorable stamp sets from the Waffle Flower December 2019 release.  When I opened up the package and the stamps fell out, I was so happy that Waffle Flower asked me to be a guest designer!   What fun to create with Cassie Loizeaux's designs! First up is this cutie pie mouse sending off her valentine (or it could be a "just because" card).  She's from the Sending Love stamp set. I created a mailbox with the largest Dotted Tags die.  I cut it off at 3 3/4" and used a small square die to create the legs.  Then a quick slit for the ..read more

Hi, there!   It's been awhile since I posted.  I've had quite a bit to do and not had enough time to do it all.  I've delivered all my Halloween and Thanksgiving orders and am now working on all the Christmas.  My goal is to get all Christmas orders delivered before Thanksgiving.  Wish me luck! I'm popping in to share a couple of projects with these cute little mice!  What an adorable stamp set.  These little mice are the sweetest. I've had this curvy box die for a few years now.  I actually use it quite a bit.  It's just a fun little box.  Stampin' Up doesn't have this one anymore ..read more

Halloween!  What fond memories - from my childhood and when Lauren was little we threw the funnest Halloween parties, complete with games and trick or treating.  Last night, Lauren told me that Louisa is going to be a skunk this year.  I'll have to see if I can put together a skunk Halloween card! These critters aren't skunks, but they are adorable!  I had a lot of fun coloring them.  The mummy rabbit is so cute! The background on this card is really cool!  It's basic distress ink blending with a layer of microfine warm highlights glitter on top.  I've got a video showing this techniqu ..read more

I've walked past my Zig Clean Color brush pens a lot since the last time I used them.  Every time Ii'd think "I've got to get those out again."   Well, I finally did.  This pretty hummingbird seems like a good reason to get them out! I still hesitated.  I'm such a novice with these pens.   But, I still did a video!  You can watch it below. Want to see what else I did last weekend? (Out of the blue.)  "Grandma, I want a lion's head."  Okay...  like the stuffed lion in your bedroom?   "No."  Okay...do you want to draw a lion? "No.  I want to wear it."  Okay...a lion mask ..read more

Use Your Background Dies as Stencils+Video+Free Image

This all started with a request for a birthday card.  They like my vintage image cards so I picked an adorable Agnes Richardson image.  Then I wanted to use a stencil and didn't really see one in my stash that was exactly what I wanted. So, I got carried away making my own stencils from background dies and really like the results!    Scroll on down for a video with tips and that Agnes Richardson couple is ready for you to download if you would like. I love this sweet image of the girl with her cat.   I think she's a companion for another girl - you can see the card I made with her HER ..read more

I was going to say Welcome to the last post for Visions of Sugarplums in July, but it's August already!  Christmas in August just doesn't have the same ring.  Nevertheless, this is the last post for Visions of Sugarplums in July! I decided to join Spellbinders Die Hard club and the first set of dies I got was their Festive Wreath Slider.  I've made sliding easel cards in the past and I must say that having the dies certainly makes it easier! I've got a video below showing how to make this card and if you want to see how to make a sliding easel card without dies, check out THIS POST AND ..read more
