Christmas Swap Card


This slighly out of focus card is for a Christmas swap I am doing with some Ladies from SCS. It is a slight variation on the one I did for my Father-in-law. It is so very easy!! Try it.

Pumpkin Binder Clip


This is a great little piece for an entryway or a place setting-it's an easy project, finishable in less than half an hour using oval punches, coordinating papers and a large binder clip. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

Baby book and matching card


This is a really cute baby book I created using the Stampin Up! "In Color" textured paper and the On Board Bitty Book. ($9.95--well worth the price, believe me!) I covered both the book and the little holder with paper, decorated the holder and made a matching card, based on the one in the catalogue on page 79. The trick was the Modge Podge-remember that? From elementary school? Who knew... What do you think?

I made this heart card for a Stampin Up! contest and couldn't part with it after it was completed. It fits in the palm of my hand is so incredibly lovely that it makes me feel good just to look at it. We were at Bodega Bay in CA in January-YES we got in the water (not too far as the Marin County shark feeding grounds are not too far away)and had such a wonderful time-can you tell?
