This Dahlia Stencil goes along with any flower stamp I think. Here I paired it with the Peony Bouquet, both of these are from Altenew. The sentiment is from the Label Love from Altenew also. Can you tell I am ready for Spring?

Yappy Birthday
I can’t tell you how much I am in love with this Wood Floor die from Penny Black. This can be a floor but also a table. I am working on a lot of dog cards because I have an event this weekend at a winery and the event is around a “Mutts and Mirmosas”…
Bring on Spring!
This month’s Build-a-Flower from Altenew is the Dahlia. Like the Japanese Mum I posted earlier, these are amazing flowers that you layer and the final image is just amazing. Each flower in this Dahlia set is a 4 ink color/stamped image. I am enjoying using the Altenew inks. They can be purchased individually, in mini…
Birthday Stack with Concord & 9th
The Birthday Stack stamp and die set is so much fun. There are so many options but here was my first try. Next, I will die cut the balloons. The balloons could also become ice cream cones. There is a banner of pennants that could become hats. So many options!!
Build-a-Flower with Altenew Japanese Mum
I just can’t say enough about the Altenew’s layer Build-a-Flower sets. This month was the Japanese Mum. I did a little video to show the stamping of the flowers. This made a really fun card.
Organic and Funky Flowers
This Organic die and Funky Flowers, both from Tim Holtz, are amazing. I did the polished stone technique for both the Organic die background and the Funky Flowers. Then I die cut them. Layered them up and blended some Vintage Photo onto the background and flowers. Once I put it all together I spritzed it…
Shake Shake Shake
Who doesn’t love a shaker card! This card is super simple and shows lots of love. This die cuts so beautifully, AND you can save the hearts to use on another product. Need different size hearts, this is also your die for the job. This Radial Heart Cover die is so fun and flirty, and how…
Elegant Washi Tape Card
This card has an elegant look using the Altenew Glitter Flurries Washi Tape and the Altenew Gilded Ombre Washi Tape. (All of the products used are listed below). Simply take the Glitter Flurries Washi tape and add it to a nice cardstock. Then fussy cut the images out and pop them up on the Gilded Ombre…
Hey Girl Valentine
This card was super fun and so easy to make. I always love using the gel press and this Fluttering Hearts Gel Press plate is so fun and easy to use. I used Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink for this fun flirty color. This card has very little coloring. I penciled in the “Hey Girl”…
My new Love…. Distress Oxides!
I have always been a big fan of Distress Inks, but now I am finding these Oxide inks to be so much fun! Concord & 9th have some very nice stamps. For this design I wanted to use a large stamp to emboss in white. This Hello Lovely was a fantastic image!
Shaving Cream Technique with a Boost!!
This Shaving Cream Technique has been around for a long time but I wanted to try something different. This is a very popular technique to use with glossy paper but I wanted to try it with Fun Stampers Journey’s Whip Cream cardstock and it worked!!! I hope you enjoy this elevated technique. …
