Take a seat with the Relaxing Waterside Stamp Set and Die Bundle

Look at all the texture on today's card from my Silver Sister, Glenda Mollett! Even the Scenic Coast Speciality DSP looks to have a linen texture to it on the circle. Love, love, love this, Glenda! The chair comes from the Relaxing Waterside Dies. This will be awesome for scrapbooking, too. Enjoy!

Which butterflies should I use?

These All Aflutter butterflies are the perfect addition to cards. These are the ones I settled on from the ones I stamped and punched out from photo 2. Do you do this? Punch or die cut a bunch and then decide? I just tuck them into the stamp set sleeve and next time I'm looking for one, I'm set.

Pretty Flowers with Boutique Blooms Dies

What a creative way to use these Scalloped Blooms dies! Thank you Marcy Denning for this beautiful card in our Silver Sister Swap. To add texture, scrunch up the cardstock after die cutting (yes I said scrunch it up) and add a little coordinating ink to the edges with a sponge dauber, wedge of sponge or blending brush. Then layer them up. I love how Marcy incorporated two embellishments on the same card - I never would have thought to do that - with the Antique Pearls and new In Color Butterflies. Oh so pretty!

Using up Boho Vibes paper with cute treat holders

Was looking for the perfect treat holder to help me use up DSP and to add cuteness to these treats for my Elmira Community Living class this week! First off...let me just say that for $6.99 for 15, these full-sized bars are a great price for surprise and delight treats to hand out. I was thinking of making the bars, but decided I should stay in my lane and use the time to make the cute holders. This is the Boho Vibes patterned paper so when you're placing your new catalogue order, pick it up off the Last Chance list for $13.60 for 48 sheets! How did I make these? I used the retired Envelope Punch Board. If you've got one, you know how to use it. Your first score on the 6 x 6 inch paper is at 2 5/8 inches. Fold and adhere. Made 10 in less than 10 mins!
