For my Timeout Thursday this week, I have chosen Spotlight on Nature. What a beautiful set! I have viewed some absolutely beautiful cards created with this set. I have tried to add some of my creativity to these! Those who know me know that I love embossing. I love watching the way heat added to […]
Country Birdhouse
I am trying to get into a routine of writing a blog on each of my Timeout Thursday sessions with more details on my cards. This week it is the turn of Country Birdhouse. When you look it up on Pinterest, you find lots and lots of cards with birdhouses. I wanted to try and […]
Crafting with You
This week during my Timeout Thursday on Facebook, I explored the Stampin’ Up bundle ‘Crafting with You’. This is an amazing set with many possibilities. It has great stamps as well as amazing dies. What could I do that was a bit different from what I had explored on Pinterest? I have three beautiful sisters […]
Painted Lavender
This week on my Facebook Live, I demonstrated these cards on my ‘Timeout Thursday’ video. I decided to share more detailed instructions with you in this blog. Each week, I try to take a different set from my collection and create some cards with it. I have only been doing this for 9 weeks but […]

Happy Easter!
Today I sat down and decided to make an Easter card with a difference. I used the bunny from ‘Playing in the Rain’ and cut it out. I then placed it on a blended background of Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green. The sentiment ‘Oh Happy Day!’ is also from this set. Inside I added […]
