This is the first Pink & Main craft kit I’ve used. It was a really fun kit to work with because of the bright and unique colors. On the whole, the color palette is quite non-traditional for a holiday / Christmas theme. I would expect mostly red, green, gold and maybe blue and silver.… Read the rest

F.L.I.P. – Tree-Themed Holiday / Christmas Cards
I’m giving Christmas card packs as gifts this year and my goal is to ship them out by Dec 1 so folks can actually use them this year if they want. I got a pretty big jump on things with my 40+ cards using the Spellbinders Merry Everything Kit, but I’ll definitely need more.… Read the rest
Create a Flip Card Using Any Shape Die
I’m a fan of the Sizzix Flip-It dies and I have several that I love to use. They are definitely an easy way to make an impressive card. However, I found myself wanting to make a Flip Card using a heart as the focal image. I don’t know if Sizzix has one, but I couldn’t wait to shop for a die.… Read the rest

I had so much fun creating this mini-album for my mother-in-law. I loved it so much, I almost wanted to keep it in the end. Rest assured, I did send it off to my MIL. 🙂 Check out my Mini Album Gallery for photos of this album (and others).
I did get my husband’s opinion a lot along the way.… Read the rest

Mini-Album With Graphic 45’s Ladies Diary DCE
When I saw the Graphic 45 Ladies Diary Deluxe Collector’s Edition paper pack, I knew I had to make a mini album for my mom.
