When dimensionals aren’t enough.

It’s Technique Tuesday! Today we are talking about the new Foam Adhesive Sheets. It is similar in thickness to the Dimensionals except it is a solid sheet measuring 4 1/4″ X 4 1/2″. Both sides have adhesive which makes it easy to stick to card stock, die cut, punch out, peel the backing, and stick.Continue reading “When dimensionals aren’t enough.”

There is rest in motion.

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest and recharge. Sometimes when I sleep in too long I have trouble getting to sleep at night.

Going to the beach before fall.

It’s Tutorial Thursday! Today I have two cards to teach you. Two! The first card is just like going to the beach but without the sand in places you don’t want to think about and no frizzy hair.

Grid paper for more than measuring.

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended!

But that beloved grid can also be used to seeContinue reading “Grid paper for more than measuring.”
