Crimson Blush Beauty
Hi Creative Friends, For today’s project, I am taking a page out of Yana Smakula‘s playbook and using a dark background to accent this beautiful rose image called Crimson Blush by Penny Black. Yana does amazing work and I just love her use of dark backgrounds to create drama to her card designs. 
Botanical Butterflies
Hi Creative Friends, I was in the mood for a vintage-style botanical card design. I settled on using the beautiful Butterfly Charmer stamp by Penny Black for my butterflies. There are so many gorgeous butterflies in this collage-style stamp to choose from that it was a perfect choice. 
Say Happy Birthday with Critters
Hi Creative Friends, Today I am having a little birthday fun with adorable critters. I chose a couple of my favorites.

I am always […]

Happy Birthday To You

Penguin Pals + video
Hi Creative Friends, I am squeezing in another fun and wintery video. This one is highlighting the adorable little penguins in the Penguin Pals stamp and die set by Pretty Pink Posh.
