One thing that I like to make is Place Cards for special occasions. I make these cards when there is a family or friend's dinner that we have a sit down affair. In January, we celebrated Spike and Jacquie's Birthday. This is an annual January event. It usually has 10-14 people that come from or…
I really like this stamp set. I think it can be so versatile. You could use it for an Anniversary Card and even a Wedding card. Because it is February, I made another Valentine card. We made this in our club last month. For this card we did a couple of different techniques. The first…
I love this cute little set that is in the Occasions Mini. It is called Valentine Defined. I was in a swap last weekend and the theme was Alcohol. Pretty broad topic. The samples were amazing. I used Glossy Cardstock. On a cotton swab dipped in Rubbing Alcohol, I put a couple of drops of…
