Little Valentines – Loving You Owl-ways

Using one of my cute owlish sentiment graphics, I printed it out to use as the main sentiment for my mini card. A simple and tiny card, with a little chocolate treat for my hubby. The bottom green dot edge was a Prima stamp that I started with randomly! Then I decided to add more [...]

Little Valentines – Spinner Card

I’ve seen cards like this before in galleries and decided to try it out for myself. Since the focus is on the disc in the middle that spins, I didn’t really feel the need to add much else. The red paper for the card base was embossed with a heart design and I added a [...]

Little Valentines – I Heart You with a Chocolate Kiss

For a medical themed card, I printed my own design of a literal heart for my little valentine card. It’s sort of like corny humor, but I guess I can be really corny at times! My husband watches Grey’s Anatomy, so I think he’ll appreciate the medical humor. You can download the printable stationery post [...]

Little Valentines – U & Me Card

I wanted to use my alphabet stamps and randomly just stamped out “U & ME” in red ink. So I decided to use that little sentiment for a tiny little tent card. I added a bit of ribbon to anchor it all on the left side, but it’s really simple – no frills. I’m writing [...]

Little Valentines – Packet of Hearts, Candy, Chocolate

My husband and I never really celebrate Valentine’s Day with big gestures or all the commercial stuff. We think it’s just that, an overblown commercial holiday. That said, I think it’s fine to celebrate in whatever way you see fit…because it’s good to express your love! Hopefully you do it all yearlong…but I totally understand that [...]

A Christmas Airmail Stationery Printable

Lately, I’ve been noticing the light blue and pinkish red combination of colors for the Christmas season. I’m more drawn to the palette that is light, airy, fresh and snowy…rather than the traditional classic red and green. Somehow seems more peaceful and quiet happy. So, I decided to update my airmail stationery to these colors [...]

Let’s Make Toothpick Flags

I know that toothpick flags have been around for a while now and it’s no wonder how popular they are in scrapbooking and cardmaking. Toothpick flags are just so darn cute! The supplies I like use are often difficult to find here in Italy. So I’ve decided to create my own through trial and error. [...]

Cardmaking Update

Lately I haven’t had a lot of time for crafty projects, although they are piling up on my shelf. I often get an idea and start it up or gather the materials straight away, but then it gets filed away in a clear pocket to be completed later. Probably giving myself more pressure than needed, [...]
