Alcohol Ink Winter Sky

I designed this card to teach to a group of students at my daughter's school.  I used glossy paper and alcohol inks with a little silver mixative.  I then stamped Memory Box's Winter Branch stamp over the top.  I dotted white "snow" using a white maker.

Halloween Baking

I have been meaning to post pictures of Sami's cake that she made for a Halloween party that she was going to.

  The haunted house, trees and tomb stones were made out of chocolate cookie dough.  The shingles on the roof are sunflower seeds.  The steps are mini Snickers.  The initials on the tombstones were of some of the party guests.  Great fun! Don't you think?

Pink Christmas Bird.



Memory Box has a way of making the hosting beautiful script background stamps.  They are so easy to turn into fabulous cards.  I went a little unconventional and used pink instead of red.  The bird is paper pieced, glossy accented, and popped.

I love making Christmas cards without using red or green.  This large snowflake from Hero Arts comes with a matching die to cut the large snowflake or the just the middle of the large snowflake.  Me likey.. :-).

Fabulous Felicity

Last weekend, my friend Heather's sister Felicity came to town.  Look at the cards that she designed.  She is a master at using die cuts from Memory Box and MFT.

Deer Dad


When I first saw the Memory Box Deer family die, I thought of my father.  He loved to go deer hunting.  When I would go with him, I would lead him astray so we wouldn't kill any of the beautiful deer.  I don't know if he ever knew.  This will be the first Christmas without him.  I still miss his hearty laugh.

Wednesday Night Cards

The ladies came over and we made some fun cards tonight.  Take a peek!

This is one that Denita designed.  Simple but elegant.


Heather cased this one from her sister.  Love it!


Marti did her Cricut magic and designed this card.  We used action wobbles behind the monster.  Super cute!

Here is another designed by Marti.  The lady was stamped and then colored with Prismacolor markers.  We also flocked the poodle and of course, used lots of bling!

Last, I made this one for my wonderful boss at the Hen House.  The glitter paper is actually silver that I colored with alcohol inks.  I can't take credit for the design, however.  I cased it from Pinterest.
