Sharing My Secret Box

I'm super excited to share this little box I created this weekend...I LOVE IT!!!  It's from a tutorial I saw on Splitcoaststampers "Secret Box" .   I've used My Little Shoebox papers from the Audrey Collection and the really cool part is the matching dies from Scrapping Cottage.  Honestly it's just so much fun to create.  Now let me show you everything this little box has going on.

Prickley Pear Monday!


With Thanksgiving right around the corner, you have to take pause and think of everything you have to be thankful for.  I have so much and am so blessed. Of course my family is first but I also have so much more to be thankful for...including the design teams that I'm fortunate to work with.  I'm so loving Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps...there is so much diversity in their stamps. 



This Vintage Cornucopia stamp is wonderful for the season and the sentiment from Ralph Waldo Emerson, well it's just perfect. The paper is from KaiserCraft...another team I'm so thankful to be a part of.

Now you need to go check out more great cards from the rest of the PPRS design Team on the Prickley Pear's Blog.

Create Your Own Embellishments


Good Morning Everyone.  This is a card I created where I made my own charm/button embellishments.  It was so easy.  The flowers at the bottom were created using Amazing Mold Putty  and then  Creative PaperClay.  I have a step by step tutorial here, if you would like to learn more.


The stamp is from Heartfelt Creations, another beauty.

Time Marches On Layout


Today I wanted to share a layout I did using KaiserCrafts new release Madame Boutique.  The nostalgic feel was a perfect fit for this photo I had of my Mother from a few years back.  I love this picture of her, she's so beautiful...but actually to this day she is just as beautiful if not more so. 


KaiserCraft also has new resin flowers and they are so great nestled in with a grouping or in the center of a handmade paper flower...they're wonderful little embellies to have.


I hope you create a beautiful day and I'll see you tomorrow.

Prickley Pear Monday....YEAH!!!



It's that time of the year again to start bundling up the kiddies on the way out door, be sure you're all stocked up on wood for the fire and starting using adorable snowmen in your projects.  I've got the PPRS stamp set SNOWMAN WITH A PIPE and he has that wonderful vintage feel that I think Pricke Pear does so well. 

I also used the Ornament Set 2 to create the background designer paper on the circles and also the sentiment.   The paper is from designer paper is from Authentique and the delightful tinsel ribbon is from Pink Paisley. 

Have a great week!

Prickley Pear Monday


Good Morning Everyone.  I hope this is a blessed week for each of you.  It's Prickley Pear time and honestly I did a ton of cards for PPRS this weekend, so get ready for the rest of the week to catch a glimpse of them. 

This is one that I did using the Poinsettia Postage, Circles Clear Set Winter and the Scallop Die .  Yeap believe it or not I actually cut the flower out with my X-acto tool.  I then used Helmar's Scrap Dots to adhere the layers...this glue is great for attaching really small pieces and still give that dimension that I love. 



See you later this week with more Prickley Pear Cards.

Happy Halloween



Happy Halloween...I hope everyone has a safe and fun day.  I made this Halloween card this weekend using some of my Prickley Pears stamps (Witches Boot) ....so love their stamps!!!  I add some twine around the shoe circle and also some purple rhinestones for the current Shabby Tea Room Challenge.  I haven't done challenges in a while and this weekend I've done several...it's been good for my mojo. 

Be safe as the little one are out and about all dressed up and I"ll see you soon.
