A Serene Garden Just for You

    Right as I looked on Pinterest this afternoon, this card was the first one I see! Just loved it and had to case it today as I am in need of more beautifully simple cards for my Mail A Card Monday I am doing this year. I have been doing pretty good at it so it was a good thing I had done lots of cards early on as I have used up my stash. I haven't been in my card room lately as I have been playing with Fairy Gardens so far this Spring. Using the Serene Garden bundle just seemed fitting 😉


This is a CASE from the card I saw earlier on Pinterest! I changed the color to one of the new In Colors, Grapefruit Grove. Such a pretty color and my favorite color is... orange!
I also did the Mirror Image Technique with the bird so it was facing the opposite direction. The easiest way I find to do that is using my Silicone Mat, and I got an extremely clear image.
To cut it out I still used the die in the bundle just used the window and bright light and did it backwards. It worked very well. I just made sure to use some washi to tape it down so not to move.

Fancy Fold Card

I'm not sure what to call this card as the one I found wasn't in English! I was surfing on Pinterest one day and found an amazing card!! Of coarse I re-pinned it for later cause I had to give it a try myself. The only problem is, its in another language and the measurements are in cm instead of inches. I really wanted to try the card so I printed out her template and tried to convert cm to inches. I made a card with my dimensions and I am fairly pleased with it.   I tried to go fairly simple on the front as the inside is a little bulky. I used a Mojo Monday sketch for the inspiration on for front of the card.  Sketch 319     For the inside I pretty much used her layout but just used different paper.  I am in the Holiday spirit so really wanted it to be a Christmas card.  I haven't used the specialty paper in the Winter Frost Specialty DSP yet so thought it would work perfectly.   She had a template designed, but of coa...

Christmas Cheer Gift Card Holder

     Last year I carried on my Mom's tradition of doing the 12 days of Christmas with my daughter. She had done it every year buy one since my daughter was about 2, I can't remember exactly when she started it... but I can't remember yesterday so... 😂 I decided instead of giving my 16 year old a bunch of stupid things she would likely never use and I would likely toss in the garbage before long, I would give her gift cards instead.  It was a great idea, it was a hit!      Her birthday is Boxing Day so we usually go shopping in the city seeing as it's still a pretty busy day for most families.  She was able to spend around $200-$250 in gift card money so it was all good!  I think doing it that way is a much better way of doing it, what do you think?      I thought I would get a head start on Gift Cards for this year as it is a great way to give a gift and still have the recipient have a choice in what to buy. I have a fe...
