Its so classy and bold and I just had to put it on…

ISS Blog Hop – Step It Up 2025
I have a really hard time making simple cards that I like. I usually find them bland or empty, and I struggle to make cards without using patterned paper. But I found the solution to all of my problems: really big stamps. Behold: the simple card. I turned the stamp upside down and used three…

Lovely Garden Peek-A-Boo Fold Card
Sometimes you really need a simple card design to make a bunch of birthday cards. This is a design that I’ve seen called the “Peek-A-Boo Card.” It is super simple — just fold the corners of patterned paper up and stamp something in the center! It’s quick, easy, and striking. Tip: I measured the same…

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…

ISS Blog Hop – Masking Technique
For this month, we thought it would be good to practice a technique! This is a card made using masking paper. I find it tricky to use sometimes because you need it to stick well, but not too much. I feel like this card came out fairly well, but certainly not perfect. I love blending…

Wildly Flowering Trimmed Flap Card
I’ve been intimidated by the Happy Little Things stamp set for awhile now. It’s bold and fun and I love when sentiments are in different colors or when part of them is cut out and popped up, but I could never get my mind around how to do it. The best way to learn was…

Wildly Flowering 3×3 Card
When I first showed my husband these cards, he got really confused. “Can you send those in the mail? They’re so small!” I reminded him that sometimes its hard to figure out what to say in a card, and also presents tend to have cards attached to them. These are the perfect size to send…
