September 12, 2016 by Linda

Card My son celebrated his 10th birthday at the end of August.  This was the simple birthday card I came up with for him.  He's past the dinosaurs and cars/trucks phase.  I though just a simple, non-frilly card would be best.  The Serene Scenery DSP stack met the challenge.  I paired it with the Stampin Up Badges ...

Birthday Llama

Fiesta Llama

This rainbow effect was ...

It’s My Party Gift Bag

May 9, 2016 by Linda

I stopped purchasing gift bags several years ago.  I hated paying over $5 for a bag that was mass produced.  They were never a cute as what I could come up with myself. My daughter got a fancy water bottle for a friends birthday party.  I used a blank Wine Gift Bag and decorated with the soon to retire It's My Party ...

Go Wild Birthday Card

March 31, 2016 by Linda

  I see zebra strip and I think bright pink.  I'm loving this card more and more every time I look at it.  Most times when I design a card I need to make it, set it aside and walk away.  When I come back in a few hours I can look at it more constructively and figure out what I need to change to make it work. ...

Banner Gift Bags

April 11, 2012 by Linda

Aren't these cute!!!  Almost as cute as the recipients!!  My cousin's twins turned 2 a couple of weeks ago, and these were their gift bags.  The price of gift bags at paper stores is so expensive, then add the card, matching tissue paper, you can pay as much for packaging as you do for the gift.   I now prefer to ...
