Mystery Incorporated Birthday Card


Oh my goodness, this card was so very fun to make!  I grew up watching Scooby Doo on Saturday mornings so nostalgia hit hard when I saw the sets CC Designs had put out.


Of course, I had to make a birthday card for a dear friend of mine who is around my same age (I want to say she's a year older?  At least--lol).

Holly Jolly Snowman


I'm in the mad scramble to ensure I have enough holiday cards to send out--I'm sure you can relate!  This card would have been quicker if I had sponged the snowman instead of coloring but I couldn't achieve that fab red with my inkpads, I assure you!

I'm entering this in TGIF #501 Winter Wonderland

Letterpressed Poinsettia Cards


Over the weekend I posted some cards that I had made using the Pinkfresh Studio Poinsettia Frame Press Plate and stencils.  Well, I wondered how it would look letter pressed but masked off to only use half the plate.  This required a bit of masking with old washi which was easy enough.  I love the results!

All of the cards used:
  • Pinkfresh Studio Poinsettia Frame Press Plate
  • Pinkfresh Studio Poinsettia Frame Stencils
Ingredients used in addition are listed below each card.
  • Catherine Pooler Be Mine, Sweet Sixteen, Pixie Dust, Flirty Fuschia, Garden Part
  • Waffle Flower Wonderful Christmas

Christmas Card with Lemons


My obsession with fruit and vegs for the holidays continues.  I had another idea for a lemon holiday card in the middle of the night but forget it by morning.  Perhaps it will come back to me later.
