Getting into the Halloween spirit with Tim Holtz Vault Halloween Dies

Tim Holtz has gone back into the vault and released a whole new set of updated designs today! I have a very fun card to share using two of the die sets.

I am using the Wicked Thinlits and the Gothic Portrait Thinlits for my card today. Here is my tutorial showing you how this card came together.

I almost forgot the broom but added it right at the end! Check out his new release if you are a fan of Tim’s Halloween designs!

Thanks for stopping by!

Check out this 5 x 7 Card featuring the Spellbinders Large Die of the Month Kit

Today I have a rare card for me: a 5 x 7! That’s right. I went big or went… home? Either way, I made this charming holiday card using the Large Die of the Month Kit from Spellbinders (and few other things!)

I love these birds and this bird house!

I shared this card as a guest on the Spellbinders YouTube channel! My video segment starts at 1 hour, five minutes! When you click the Play button, it should start right at where my video begins!

How fun is that card? My suppl...

A new card project + a new release!

The Cheering for You Release from Simon Says Stamp is out now and I have a handful of new CZ Design releases, as well!

For today’s card project, I’m using the CZ Design You Stamps and the You dies, along with a very cool embossing folder called Bubble Rings.

Here is the tutorial showing how this card came together:

How fun was that? I love that I’m busting out my Oxide inks again, too!

Here’s a look at my new releases (click on any image to see it in the store!):

Something Old, Something New… the series continues

It has been quite a stretch since using one of my oldest supplies: Distress Inks (both Oxides and the Regular Distress Formula)! So today’s Something Old was inspired by that, and a few other things.

My new product with a fun Love and Florals Fancy Dies from Hero arts, and my Something Borrowed was a color scheme found on Card 208 in the Color Cube Volume 1 box.

For the Something Blank? Well… you’ll have to watch to find out:

It really did feel like something a bit out of ...

Let’s unbox the latest card kit from Simon Says Stamp and make five cards!

After missing one month (due to vacation time!) but I am back with a new video! Today I’ll be unboxing the August 2024 Card Kit called Graceful Flowers.

Let’s just jump right into the unboxing with one caveat: my audio got wonky after Card 1, so I had to add a whole voice over to the second half of the video, which means this video is MUCH faster than usual. That could be a good thing, right? Enjoy!

Let’s take a closer look at the cards starting with Card One! I never though...
