Welcome to my blog!

Hello and thank you for visiting my new space!  Here you will find some tasteful cards and paper crafts, many are featured at my local classes and workshops.   I am an Independent Demonstrator for the fabulous Stampin' Up! company.  I love teaching classes and making cards.  If you believe as I do that everyone deserves a handmade card, let me show you how easy it is to make one!  

Some of the most favorite projects are often those that are quick and easy, like this one:

This card uses Cherry Cobbler 4 1/4" x 11" card stock for it's base, the 3 - 2" strips of Designer Series Paper are from the Presents & Pinecones  12"x12" pack, they were finished with the Triple Banner Punch.  The beautiful Emerald Envy Silky Taffeta Ribbon is part of a combo pack of the 3/8" ribbon (that also contains a roll of Cherry Cobbler), and the Whisper White card stock was cut using the Tags & Labels Framelits after being stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink with a sentiment from the Tin of Tags Stamp Set.

This project was inspired by the very talented Julie Davison.  What a great way to use pieces of our beautiful Designer Series Papers!  The stamp set, tools and all the materials to create this lovely card can be purchased through my Stampin' Up! Online store.  

I hope you have enjoyed this quick and easy project!  It was one of the cards featured at my local classes in Show Low and Lakeside, Arizona for November, 2016.  Come back soon and see more projects from the November classes and more!

Happy stampin'!
