My garden chair

Hi everyone, I have a question for you. Am I the only one that find making cards for men hard? I swear, I tried, lol. I made this one for my dad. The image and sentiment are just perfect for him. And then I go and blow it! I get a flower ribbon, lol.  

MY CARD TIP: Break up your stamp set to make a nice picture.
(Stamps used: Mark's Finest Paper and Stamps)

Challenges entered:
Pinque Peacock: stamping &/or journal
Fan-Tastic Tuesday: blues
Sweet Stamps: anything goes

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day.

Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you.

Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Review

Good morning friends, Carolyn here with a review of a new tool I just recently purchased.  Received a newsletter from Scrapbook.com recently and checked it out.  But I did not purchase from Scrapbook.com as it's out of stock, so went to another source, and it arrived this past Saturday afternoon.
