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...

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.

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...
