Love You with Technique Junkies


 I have been enjoying the beautiful weather this spring and thought I would share this card that is perfect for the season.  I colored the Flourished Florals image from Technique Junkies with Spectrum Noir Blendable Pencils, and cut the image out and layered it. The Circle- Love You stamp was nestled into the floral image.

It's Almost Time for HSN and Crafter's Companion

 That's right! This coming Monday, Sara Davies will be back on HSN with great deals and inspiration.  This is one of the projects that I made for the show, a Fold Back Card using the gorgeous Moroccan Screen die (So there's a hint as to one of the deals to look for!) I've seen sneaks of so many wonderful projects - so you won't want to miss!

Altered Clipboard Teacher Present

The school year is winding down, and I don't know who is more excited, the kids or the teachers? That also means that it's time for end of the year goodies for those teachers, and this altered clipboard is perfect to help them make it to the final days! The chalkboard label provides the perfect place to start the countdown for summer.
