I decided to take a a five minute break from all the holiday card-, treat-, and giftcard holder- making (that was a mouthful) and create a quick thank you card. I am always sending and giving out thank you cards, so it was time to replenish my stock. This one couldn’t have been easier to…

Let’s take it nice and easy for this Friday! A layer of DSP and a layer of cardstock and a snowflake cut in half – your card is done. I used some of the retired Sale-A-Bration paper for this card, but any Real Red containing DSP will do – I’ve included some examples available in…

I might just send them to my Aunt Stella’s to fill with her delicious cookies (they’re the best, seriously!) And looking at…
Where did October go?!?!? I found myself with a very big to-do list this past weekend – a spooky to-do list. I had to make treat holders for co-worker’s children; cards (greeting and the bingo variety) for my oldest son’s class, and the dozen or so cards needed for my family and friends. Fortunately, I…
