Prized Peony Assembly
The Stampin’ Up Prized Peony assembly is easier than you think. Using the gorgeous DSP on the card just makes it that much easier. If you are going to do a watercolor look for the flower, you just want to add a bit of water and color and not saturate it. I suggest using Shimmery…
In Love with Playful Pets
The Playful Pets Suite is a must have because this set has both cats and dogs and who doesn’t love cats and dogs, right? I created this fun card for my son and daughter-in-law for their anniversary because their “fur baby” is a schnauzer. As I mentioned before, I am trying to use more Designer…

Father’s Day is just around the corner and I wanted to get a head start on my cards. Why so early you ask? The Stampin’ Up new catalog goodies are on their way to me and I am going to want to share and play with them. Someone on the Demonstrator website shared this Double…
