May Your Coconuts Never Hang Lower Than Your Grass Skirt...

Happy Tuesday Crafty Friends,

Today, I am popping in to share a fun card for my sister's birthday. I love it when crafting leads to accidental inspiration. The Do the Hula (stamp/die combo) has been in my stamp stash for a bit of time, and I have been looking for an opportunity to get it inky. With the release of the new TE Blending Brushes, I thought, "Perfect!"

Christmas In July

Happy Wednesday Craft Friends!

I am popping in to share a Christmas card, fitting for Christmas in July. Right? I know the Christmas season seems so far away, especially if you are creating Christmas cards when it is 93 degrees in the shade. However, what a wonderful way to get the creative juices flowing and have a little time to plan this year's Christmas cards.

Today's card features a few Taylored Expressions oldies, but goodies. It has been a hot minute since I have played with pattern paper, and using the TE Build a Scene-Christmas pattern paper added a different twist to my normal creative routine. The card also uses the Critters on Ice stamp and coordination die set.

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Monday Crafty Friends!

I hope you had a fabulous weekend! Did you make it into your craft room this weekend? My new crafting goodies arrived. I was able to look, but no playing. I plan on changing that during the upcoming days.

Today, I am sharing a birthday card featuring the Big Bold Balloon stencil from Taylored Expressions. I could make birthday cards all the time. I never have enough of these in my card stash. One down...yeah, a lot more to go =)

Inspiration...Beautiful Blends

Good morning Crafty Friends,

I hope you are enjoying your July 4th week. I know this week will be filled with backyard BBQs, friends, family and fireworks! Enjoy the great time ahead! However, if you do have a chance to make it into your craft room for a little crafty time, the TE Creative Team is sharing several projects focused on some of our favorite color blends.

Today's project features one of my favorite bold blends, Cilantro, Lime Zest, Sprinkles and Blueberry.
