Happy Anniversary to Lizzie Anne Designs!!! Hop on over to their website HERE for info on their big celebration!! You won’t want to miss the new stamps that are coming out…they are unbelievably ADORABLE!!! This notebook took about 15 minutes to make! SO easy for a quick gift. In fact, I think it took longer [...]

WOW, it’s been months since Lindsey, Michele, Julia and I got together for a Take Two challenge! I’m glad we were finally able to sneak one in. This time we paired Lizzie Anne Designs with Basic Grey. Two winning combinations, I think! Be sure to check out their blogs for their designs! I can’t wait [...]

I’d like to wish all of you a very Happy Mother’s Day! I just got home from brunch at the Biltmore Estate. It was delicious. I created this card for my Mom, using the Lizzie Anne set, “In the Meadow”. It’s paired with some Basic Grey Sugared patterned paper, and features the “poppin’ pastels” technique. [...]

TGIF!! As usual, I am SO GLAD it’s Friday! My favorite day of the week. A few days ago, I shared a very simple card, using this daisy from Lizzie Anne’s In the Meadow set. I created this card at the same time, but gave it a totally different look. I’d been wanting to use [...]

Hello! I was chatting with Lindsey the other day, and she mentioned she was having a challenge with her new Design Team. The challenge was to use pink, green and gray for a Thank You card. It’s been awhile since I participated in a challenge, so I accepted! When SU! came out with this basic [...]

This design is about as “clean” as they come. Hope you like it! I’ve completed 4 designs today using this “In [...]

Happy Monday! (lol) I have one more design to share with you, using the Lizzie Anne Designs set In the Treetop. This card, like my previous two, also uses a paint brochure as color inspiration. I just love these rich colors, and thought they would work well with the trees! Nothing fancy here, other than [...]

Hello! I’m so glad that many of you enjoyed yesterday’s post using paint brochures! I have another design today using a different brochure and the same Lizzie Anne Designs In the Treetop set. Birthday Balloons While I know blue and yellow are common colors to pair together, I rarely do it. This brochure reminded me [...]

Hoorayyyyyyyyyyy for Friday! I have 3 cards to share with you in the next couple days, all of which use today’s favorite: paint brochures! Yep, it’s true. I am absolutely in love with paint brochures. I think they are such great inspiration pieces! As you know, I love color and unique color combinations. I’m always [...]

…No Spring skips it’s turn. Isn’t that a beautiful sentiment? My sweet friend Lori suggested it for the Lizzie Anne Designs Say it in Script stamp set, and I’m glad she did! This sentiment was the inspiration for this card, which also features the LAD set In the Treetop. Spring Bling Tree When I was [...]
