I CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) a swap card made by Michelle Nicolson (michellenicholson.stampinup.net). I loved everything about it, but I did add more coloring and the copper trim bow.
I especially love very (very) thin cardstock mats and this one has I think the thinnest mat line ever cut.
The splats are...
See this month's alternatives video! I really like this kit, the colors are beautiful and it makes really polished looking projects! Video length 22 min 42 sec.
I am not sure how it happened, but I totally forgot my mom's anniversary. That is to say I did not have it written down on my little calendar! It ends up that my mom and her husband are sick and they BOTH forgot their anniversary. They also had a huge snow storm blow through that week which was a distraction. The snow was so deep that my mom's suv tunneled through the snow. They live in a...
Before time gets away from me I wanted to post this project. On February 13th, in the late afternoon, I placed all of my Valentine supplies on Hub's desk with some Whisper White card front blanks. The last card I recall Hub creating was for my birthday a couple of years back.
I also gave Hub a container of Paper Pumpkin Spots as they are all very juicy. My own Spots are lovingly worn...

My mom thinks I am crazy and she happily gives me all her game tickets each year. I did not start playing seriously until I officially retired. I had a detail-oriented job that kept me plenty busy...
After losing all of my crafting supplies I was a bit down of course and did not do a good job of organizing my replacement Copic markers. I was pretty much in love with the new Blends and spent all my time with them. Stampin' Up! has released the colors slowly over time and I finally made myselft spend some time organizing and cataloging my Copic markers.
I think what has happened is...
Today I have a very pretty card to share. This project uses annual catalog products as listed in the supplies below. I think what makes this card so pretty is the photographic DSP, and as a rule I don't use photography on cards.
Measurements:
Sentiment layer: 3/4" x 3"
DSP layer:2 1/2" x 4"
Old Olive mat: 2 3/4" x 4 1/4"
Old Olive tufted: 2 1/8...
