A Green Chair

I wanted a card for a co-worker to help cheer her up and let her know she is doing a great job. She does a lot for us! I work in the mental health industry, so it seemed fitting to include a nice, cozy armchair as most of the offices have one of them.

This clean and simple card wasn't without it's hurdles. I stamped the shutters on the opposite side of the card, they were supposed to be on the bottom! But I rolled with it and added the sentiment on the top instead.

Four Square


My son's high school football games started last night...that means that fall can officially arrive! I've been having fun creating with Catherine Pooler Designs' release, All Things Fall.

Today's card uses some strategic "leftover" pieces from Criss Cross Applesauce Cover Plate Die as backgrounds to the fun images stamped and die cut from the Fall Finds Stamp Set and Fall Finds Dies

And of course I used some of the newest colors too! 


I finished the card with the All in One Thank You Word Die cut from Ultra Smooth Cardstock, I just love the look of white on white.

Simplistic Sympathy

Spellbinders is celebrating Christmas in July with the release of their Celebrate the Season release! I had the great pleasure to play with some products from this beautiful collection. I decided to use the supplies for a card outside of Christmas-they are so versatile and beautiful!

My card today features the Stylish Merry Christmas Etched Dies. Sympathy cards are always requested of me, and I never seem to have enough on hand. The beautiful dies from this set were a perfect choice to use for a sympathy card because of their simplicity. I die cut a few with white cardstock and arranged them onto a solid lilac card base. I finished the card with an old Papertrey Ink sentiment.

Pegged Thank You


Have you checked out Catherine Pooler Designs' newest release, All Things Fall  yet?! Itbrings the excitement of the arrival of cool breezes, changing colors of the leaves and expectation of upcoming family celebrations!

I'm sharing another card I created with items from the Harvest Festival Bundle which features the Fall Finds Stamp SetFall Finds DiesAll in One Thank You Word DieCriss Cross Applesauce Cover Plate Die, Harvest Festival Patterned Paper and Dublin Sequins.


As usual, my card started with an Ultra Smooth Cardstock base. I then used the extra cut outs from the Criss Cross Applesauce Cover Plate Die and colored them with fall based inks. I then cut out from the card front the All in One Thank You Word Die, and backed the inside with another piece of cardstock.


The collection is truly remarkable, perfect for fall and beyond.
