Featured April 01

Featured April 02

Featured April 03
Mushroom Selections

*********************************************
Let's get started !!

Today is GARDENIA! So as I was making this card, I started thinking, whoever came up with all the flower names? Things that make you go, HMMMM???? 

Unfortunately, I have a black thumb, so these are the only flowers I won't kill, lol!

This is card is a CAS one which means, "Clean and Simple".  The biggest rule is lots of pretty white space and limited embellishments. 

My newest technique is doodling so for this one, I grabbed my fine black pigment Marvy Pen and made a simple line border.
I colored the flower with Prismacolor Pencils and used Momento Paris Dusk ink.

Thanks for hopping,
up next is VICKIE!!!!

    So very pretty! Your blue gardenia is gorgeous, and I really like the doodled line around the edge (one of my favorite techniques).

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold.

On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
