Pumpkin Spice Shop Challenge #3


Here's a simple card created with my Paper Made Bakery kit and for the Pumpkin Spice Shop challenge to make a card with a coffee theme. I love coffee and tend to drink mine in to go cups from Dunkin so this coffee cup is my favorite one from the Hot, Hot, Hot stamp set from Fresh Squeezed Stamps.


Cards from the Heart Drive


Winter Sims is hosting the 4th annual Cards from the Heart Card Drive. So I decided to try and use up some of my valentine paper scraps and create some simple valentines. I also got my kindergarten class involved. I stamped some fun and cute Lawn Fawn images for them to color as a starting point for their cards. One of my students decided to write "flap, flap" to show the griffin was flying but it came out a bit mixed up. However they had lots of fun and I think that these cards will be enjoyed.

Anything But a Card Challenge 11: Tie It Up


I created the cute coffee treat holder for the latest challenge at Anything But a Card. This week we are challenging you to "Tie It Up" which is basically to use fibers in some way. As you can see I used some ribbon and some twine. All the supplies for this treat holder (including the holder) are from my Paper Made Bakery Kit with the Hot, Hot, Hot stamp set from Fresh Squeezed Stamps.

Shopping Our Stash 85: Suits Me to a T


Recently I've been working on a simple mini album about my trip to the Eric Carle museum in Massachusetts. My grams and I went over the summer with the primary motivation being to meet Mo Willems.  


As I was working on it I saw the challenge over at Shopping Our Stash and knew it would be simple to fit it in. My T items are the color teal and the title Today. The journaling above is also on a tag that I cut the top off of. I'm glad I found a project to match those tags because the color in a little tricky for me.
