I have been making these split cards for a long time. It was time to make one using the Poinsettia Petals bundle. The poinsettia you make using the Poinsettia dies is pretty big which makes it easy to connect the top piece to the bottom. Here are the measurement of the basic card pieces. Soft…
It is Thursday and time for the Create with Connie & Mary Challenge. This week it is a sketch challenge. I wanted to use a set that hasn't been used recently and chose the Band Together stamp set. Love this big floral image. It is fun to color and makes a great focal point. I…
Have you ever played along with the Festive Friday Challenge? I may be a little biased but I think you should! It is very fun and challenging too. Every Challenge has a festivity which inspires an Inspo List. You need to pick at least 3 items from the list to use on your project. Here…

Two days ago the air quality around here improved so much that i was able to resume my daily walks outside. We do not have a huge house so getting my steps done inside took a long time and it is a pretty boring process. It was such a treat to be outside and I…
Running a little late this morning with my post. Made some quick, easy and I think elegant cards to share with you today. Here's what I used to make this card. Early Espresso CS 4-1/4" x 11" scored at 5-1/2" Very Vanilla CS 4" x 5-1/4" (inside of the card), 3" x 3" (for the…
