The Star Stampz Challenge for October is all about Autumn! I created a circular piece using the Autumn Gift digital stamp from the Star Stampz Etsy shop.

I feel like my cards are more interesting if they have some kind of texture on them. There are lots of techniques for adding that texture, but the easiest way to do it is to do some tone-on-tone heat embossing! I used this month’s Hedgehog Hollow kit with the Halloween stamps to create a fun card. I… Read More »

Later today, I plan to get myself lost in a good book! You know how it is. When you have spent what feels like 6 weeks doing things to meet deadlines or to please other people. You just need some down time to relax and refresh. That’s why I’m going to go out and read by the pool… Read More »

I love the Fun Cactus Digital Stamp set from Kinda Cute by Patricia. I pulled it out today to play with some different green combinations of Copic makers.
