My first card of 2024 - made with the Lovely & Sweet suite of products from the 2024 Spring catalog, pages page 40-43. I had so much fun making this card for a Spring catalog swap. I absolutely love this suite of products - the stamp designs, the designer...
SWEET SONGBIRDS 2-4-6-8 CARD
I had so much fun making this Sweet Songbirds 2-4-6-9 card. I'm glad this stamp set and the Songbird Builder Punch made it into the new 2023 Annual Catalog! I got the idea for this fold from P. Bennett, who shared it recently. I used some retired Designer Series...
DAISIES IN WILD WHEAT
My card today features a new stamp set, Cheerful Daisies, and one of Stampin' Up!'s new 2023-2025 In Colors, Wild Wheat. I had second thoughts when I first saw this color, but decided to work with it to see what I could come up with. To my surprise Wild Wheat can...

CELEBRATING SUNFLOWERS
I shared in my recent newsletter that I would post the details of my Celebrating Sunflowers card. Sorry it took me so long to post the card - I had a class to prep for that took more time than I had anticipated. I made the card for a recent 2020 Annual Catalog swap...
