Snowy Woods


Who's in the mood for making ornaments???  I love this Santa image from Snowy Woods.  The Neenah Baronial Ivory cardstock is very smooth, and takes the ink nicely.

Happy Birthday!



I'm using the birthday celebration sketch for this card. I've rotated it a bit and moved the right box to the left. You get the idea.

I've used images/sentiments from 3 different Artistic Outspost stamp sets. I stamped an image from The Outpost on to cardstock painted with acrylic paints. "From the funny farm" is from the Home plate . "Happy Birthday" is from Polaroid Cutie

Vintage Christmas


I stamped the Vintage Santa from the Artistic Outpost Snowy Woods Plate on Caramel card stock, then used the Sepia Technique to add color. To color his beard, I painted on Rock Candy Stickles with an old H20 Brush, then dabbed on some White Pastels, layed onto a Black Panel cut with Spellbinders Circle Dies, then onto my Sleigh.

Honoring Veterans

I created this collaged tag in honor of Veterans' Day.
Stamps: Hero
Designer: Judy Hayes

In honor of Veterans everywhere....


This is one of my favorite cards using the She-roes plate.
I realized I had never shared it here and thought this would be a wonderful day to do so!
To all of those that have fought for our freedom...we salute you!
It is also my birthday today and I am so proud to have been born on a day where we honor our brave men and women!
