  • Fox in a Box

    Fox in a Box

    Today I have a clean and simple card using Magical Enchanted Day by Prickley Pear Stamps at Pajama Crafter Stamps. The minute I saw this stamp set, I knew I wanted to use that little fox pocking around corners in a box. I die cut 2 squares (one with x-press it card and one with…

  • Enchanted Birthday

    Enchanted Birthday

    Today I have a card using the Magical Enchanted Day stamp set from Prickley Pear at Pajama Crafter Stamps. I decided to go with a round card for fun. I stamped the wreath onto the round panel and colored it with Polychromos pencils – I think they gave it a little more whimsy. What do…

    You are Loved! Simple Watercolor Technique

    Today I am doing some simple stamping with “water color” and the Love and Prayers Set. I used a technique from this blog HERE . Essentially, you add some water based inks (I used Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry, Milled Lavender, and Dusty Concord) to a kraft mat, spritz it, and the use that as an ‘ink…

  • Magical Birthday Unicorn

    Today I have a sweet birthday card using Best Unicorn Buddies. To create my card panel, I used some Distress Oxides and partially inked through a stencil I found deep in my stash (you know the collection of stencils I needed but haven’t really used.) Do you do that too? I am working hard to…
