Hello Again!

Today I have a card for you that I made with the scraps from my Hobby Haven workshop. I have had fun playing with the light and bright colours after months of red and green and Christmas, it is a refreshing change of pace. 

This DSP comes with two sheets of die cuts that make it super easy and fun to put together. I did cut the chair out of the paper, but the rest are die cuts.

Hello! 

I hope everyone had a fabulous holiday season and is getting some time to rest and recharge as we head into the new year! I got some time to play in my craft room today, so that made me happy. 

I decided to pull out the Floral Impressions papers I have and play with that for today's sketch. I love Christmas, but I have been working on Christmas projects since the end of September, so I am so ready for the change to more colours and options in what I create with.

Magic and Wonder - AHSC 657

Hello! This week, I have two cards for you for the AHSC. I was making some cards for craft shows, and at the same time, trying to finish up some paper packs, I was able to finish off the retired Close to My Heart Christmas Story. While it felt great to finish off the paper pack, it was kind of sad because I loved that paper. I had small scraps and they were perfect for this week's sketch, so I used them up to finish off the paper pack.
