Every now and then, I like to create a clean and simple (CAS) card just to show myself I can. I LOVE CAS cards and I aspire to create all CAS cards. It often never works that way because I like all the things!! I love techniques and embellishments and layers way too much to confine myself to… Read More »
Last week I shared a card that I created with an underwater scene created by Patricia Alvarez from Kinda Cute by Patricia.

The digital image that I played with this week for the Scrapping 4 Fun Challenge is a really fun image!

I have only purchased one or two new fall stamp sets this year. I had purchased a couple sets last year that I didn’t use enough, so I decided that I didn’t need more fall sets until the ones I have got plenty of use. I decided to experiment with two card sketches today. I was playing with… Read More »

I get a lot of questions about the backgrounds that I create when I use a digital image. Most of the time, you don’t get a background included with a digital image, so you can create one or just use the image as you would any stamped image. I really enjoy making my own scene backgrounds. I’ve been… Read More »
