We can all hope that the beach is closer to us here in the desert, but it’s probably not going to happen. I would love the sound of the waves, but not the crowds or price tag that comes with the beach. So for today I will give you a tutorial on a card thatContinue reading “When the ocean comes to the desert.”

Water stamps can be for dirt or sand.
Sometimes I look at a stamp set and think that is a flower or that is dirt. Sometimes what I think is one thing can often be another. Take this card… …I thought the water stamp could only be that. But it can also be dirt or land. Don’t forget to look at your stampsContinue reading “Water stamps can be for dirt or sand.”
Coordinating embossing powder with a background.
It’s amazing how a background pops when there is an accent that coordinates. In this case the Grapefruit Grove is subtly daubed on to the background. The coordinating embossing powder ties it all together. Tune in tomorrow night at 7 pm for the Facebook Live on the Red Door Crafters’ Page. I will be creating thisContinue reading “Coordinating embossing powder with a background.”

Resting is petting a puppy.
Sometimes rest can be found in the simple things. Sometimes it’s your favorite cup of coffee, a kiss on the forehead from your significant other, or just a moment with your dog. This morning I found myself with my dog. Just sitting on the couch petting him over and over again. He seemed to likeContinue reading “Resting is petting a puppy.”

An alternate to a kit.
Today’s card is a tiny bit different as it is a bit of a conglomeration of ideas. First, I started with a colored base, a new color at that. The color is called Granny Apple Green. And then I cut it long ways instead of the “normal” way. I then took a piece of whiteContinue reading “An alternate to a kit.”
Simple details to complete a card.
It’s amazing to me how a different color of cardstock or a different pattern of designer series paper can make a card look so different. Paper can make a card or project appear masculine, feminine, or somewhere in between. So before you throw away that project that just doesn’t seem to want to come togetherContinue reading “Simple details to complete a card.”

Hobbies bring rest.
By the title I bet you think I will talk about stamping. For many of you stamping is what brings you rest. And I am sure at some point today I will stamp too. But what other hobbies (or therapies) do you have? I like to work out and also to cook. So today IContinue reading “Hobbies bring rest.”
