This week on the Create with Connie & Mary Challenge we have a simple, pretty straightforward sketch. I just realized that I didn't follow the sketch as closely as I should have. Ooops! I did try and move the wreath over to one side so it would more closely follow the sketch but it wouldn't…
It is so fun stamping pumpkins from the Harvest Hellos bundle on Come to Gather DSP. Who doesn't love a gingham pumpkin? In addition to the Come to Gather DSP, I also stamped a Mint Macaron pumpkin using the 6" x 6" Subtles Designer Series Paper. I used the Apple Builder punch and the Leaf…

It is Thursday and time for the Create with Connie & Mary Challenge, #CCMC581. I decided to use the Painted Harvest stamp set for this week's challenge. I am not sure if there are any flowers like this in nature but I think the color combination is pretty. The sentiment is also from the…

Don't you love it when a card comes together quickly? Believe me, it doesn't happen to me often enough. I found the stamped image above and the cut DSP stuck in the Beauty & Joy stamp case. There were even card stock layers for the oval and the DSP in the case. I don't remember…
I said I wasn't going to get it but I caved. My rationalization is that I didn't have a pumpkin stamp and it is Autumn and I need one. Just nod your head cause I know you understand. My first card using the Harvest Hellos bundle. Don't you wish pumpkins came in gingham check? So…
