Joy Ride


 Hope you will bear with me for a bit but I am smitten with the AALL & Create stamps right now. They make me smile! This is for the Make It Cute challenge for Wednesday at Simon Says Stamp found HERE.

I used the Nomad Wheels dies that are great for SO many scenes, Ginger's Gingerbread and Winter Is Magic stamps.

Springtime






 These are the projects I've been working on for various challenges. The playing card challenge for the week is to use the prompts of Purple, pink, magazine, weaving, text, vellum, black splatter, and spots. Whew! I got all of them on here.

The next two are for the AALL & Create Fanatics Memorydex, one for a nature theme and the other vintage. AALL & Create stamps and dies used for both.

Foil and Shine


 A lovely monthly challenge from Spellbinders is on for January and the theme is foil and shine. I used Rainbow Confetti foil with the December Glimmer dies of the month with an older club die for the hearts (January 21 Slimline Kaleidoscope Hearts). It's really pretty in real life but difficult to photograph the pretty foiled rainbow effect. 😍
