Grillin' Guy

I created this card about a month ago when I first got this stamp. I just think it's so cute and with Father's Day around the corner...ok, maybe not around the corner, but defintely about the block, I thought it would be appropriate. The stamp is grillafella from Stamping Bella. Sentiment is from Studio G. I used copict to color the image and added some prima flowers for embellishment.

Kissin and Tellin


Spring break is over and it's time to go back to school. It's amazing how quickly it goes by. The good news is that I had plenty of time to scrapbook and stamp! I made this card at a scrapbook retreat and I just love the way it turned out. The images are Mistletoe Tilda and Mistletoe Edwin. I love that you can use them year-round if you leave out the mistletoe. I used copic markers to color in the image as usual and then added this sweet little sentiment I picked up at Michaels. I also added some paper flowers (paper studio and prima). Hope you like it!

A Card for Mom


Sorry it's been so long since my last post. Things have been so crazy lately. I teach high school and this weekend I had to go to an AP conference. It was very inspiring, but I certainly felt humbled by how much the presenters and other teachers knew about their field. I certainly have a lot to learn. But I did walk away with some helpful tips and exercises I plan to try out in the classroom.


I made this card for my mother. Something about it this image just reminds me of her. She is my best friend and I don't know where I'd be without her. The image is Fall Standing Tilda (Magnolia Stamps). I colored her with copics, the paper is from the Paper Studio at Hobby Lobby...gotta love 1/2 off paper! And the brads and flowers are from Paper Studio as well. Hope you like it!

Love that Red!






My very first blog. You'll have to be patient with me because I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing...so here it goes.


I made this card because I love the color red! Something about the color just makes me smile. I used copics to color it in. I just got the hang of using them and I think it turned out pretty good! The paper is DCWV. The cardstock is Georgia Pacific, ink is memento tuxedo black, and flowers are from Hobby Lobby. Oh, and of course the image is Magnolia Tilda with thistle. Thanks for stopping bye.
