ISS Blog Hop – Fabulous Fun Folds

Have you ever seen a card design that was pretty unpractical but so cool you just had to make it? Those are the best kinds of fun folds. This card is too big for a normal envelope. It measures at 6″ x 8″ when closed. It’s kind of flimsy, and can be difficult to pick…

ISS Blog Hop – Mom’s Kitchen… A Taste of Love

This month we were inspired by our moms and our stomachs. When I think of my mom, crafting is definitely something that comes to mind. She’s not just a stamper, she’s also a sewer, and she’s thrilled that I’ve finally started picking up her life long hobby. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it, but…

Filled with Happiness Gate Fold Card

My husband loves birds, so I tend to buy all of the products with birds on them. This is one of my favorites. I love the design of the bird and how the sentiment wraps around it. The stamp is so large that it can be the focalpoint of the card without needing to add…

ISS Blog Hop – Valentine’s Day

I’ve wanted to figure out a way to feature this bee and this is what I came up with! It’s a fairly easy card, once you figure out how to cut all the papers so the slanted edge aligns on all of them. Yellow is my favorite color and I love seeing it so prominently…

Making Spirits Bright Gate Fold Card

Once I saw the die in the Christmas Classics set that made it look like leaves and sprigs were coming out from behind a border, I knew I wanted to use it in a card. I think it turned out great and it looks more difficult than it was! I love this collection. The colors…
