It’s Technique Tuesday! Today we are using a slightly embossed frame to break up a busy pattern. For this card I am using Rococo Rose Card Stock with the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder to break up the Love You Always Specialty Designer Series Paper. Along with the Tasteful Textiles I also used two otherContinue reading “Frames to break up the busy patterns.”

It’s Management Monday! Here is what’s happening this week! Here is the new contest only through me and it is halfway through. Since we are halfway through Sale-A-Bration I figured there were probably some other things that are halfway as well. Do you have any unfinished projects? Don’t be ashamed, I do too. So here’sContinue reading “Halfway for the halfway contest and more!”

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to focus on resting so you can be recharged for the rest of the week. So I have to ask you…do you let yourself rest? This, for me, is very difficult so I wouldn’t be surprised if you said that you struggled with this as well. Being aContinue reading “Letting yourself rest.”

It’s Sale Saturday! Sale-A-Bration is over half done! I do need to remind you to not wait to order. Sale-A-Bration this year is only through the end of February, not March. Yes, it changed this year. But don’t feel short changed. We only have Sale-A-Bration from January through February because we also get to Sale-A-BrateContinue reading “Halfway Contest and Betty’s Bonus”

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward. So I have to ask you…do you know your neighbors? Do you want to? This was mentioned as a friend pulled up in my driveway. “It’s different in your neighborhood. No one seems to talk to each other.” IContinue reading “Get to know your neighbors.”

It’s Tutorial Thursday! Today I usually write out a tutorial and have a live video to coordinate. Since I took off yesterday there is no video. So, instead, I want to focus on the kits that Stampin’ Up! has. They come with full instructions (sometimes in color) and everything you need to create. So ifContinue reading “Kits are sometimes what is needed.”

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! Today’s product is still being used for what it is intended. It’s the outcome that is not foreseen. So, I have a joke for you…what do you get when you put a triangle and a circle together? Someone always tryingContinue reading “How to make a keyhole.”

It’s Technique Tuesday! Today we are talking about how sponging creates a bit of a pop or wow on your project. Recently I started creating with the Dandy Laser-Cut Paper. This paper, while it is gorgeous, is all the same color. It is very delicate so using the sponge brayer, dauber, or much of anyContinue reading “Sponging adds a pop.”

It’s Management Monday! Here is what’s happening this week! Here is the new contest only through me. Since we are halfway through Sale-A-Bration I figured there were probably some other things that are halfway as well. Do you have any unfinished projects? Don’t be ashamed, I do too. So here’s the contest. From now untilContinue reading “New contest, closed Wednesday, and more!”

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to focus on resting so you can recharge for the week. Do you ever feel like a piece of meat? Have you ever been compared to a good steak? Well…here it goes. You are like a good, thick, juicy steak. Let me explain. You go through life experiencingContinue reading “Just like a good steak.”
