I need to share these with you! This gorgeous paper pack and coordinating cardstock is coming in just a few days! It's called "You Are Enough". 

This special also has really fun holographic butterfly embellishments as well as the layer butterfly thin cuts.


This kit was created by a very talented CTMH Maker, Chelsey Vorosmarty. I made a couple minor changes to the kit when I created it.







 All I can say about this paper is ... I LOVE IT!!

Happiest Place ... it was a super fun paper pack to play with! The silver foil cardstock to the glossy embellishments, it all went together so well! These pages were designed by a fellow CTMH Maker created the guide and I needed it to use in one of my three Disney trips ... LOL







I just have to put in my photos now!! And I'm hoping that I can go back to Disneyland or Disney World some time soon!!

Till next time!

I spent a few months playing with a new product to me! It is by far not a new product to the world, but I hadn't played with them before! And let me tell you, it's opened a whole new world for me!


 

Close To My Heart started carrying the Tim Holtz Distress Oxides and it changed my world! I've been having so much fun creating backgrounds for cards! This one I love because I used a thin cut on just plain black cardstock to make the background pop! It's still one of my favourites to this day!

Chat with you soon!

 Back in May of 2020 Close To My Heart released a super fun bundle! It was a great card kit to make some fun cards to play on the pandemic. The play on the toilet paper and the sanitizer still stand true today and this fun stamp set was re-released for the Stamptacular sale going on during the month of April. I love that we get to play with stamp set some more! Not that we're still in the pandemic but the fact that we can make so many more fun cards with this!


Stay tuned for some new cards with this stamp set coming soon!

2021! Umm ... Where did the time go?

 So a few years back I had great ideas and plans to revitalize my blog and share my creations, but I truly don't know what happened. I know life got somewhat crazy and then of course the time goes by and the next thing you know, here we are, in 2021!

2020 was a very interesting year. My day job brought me to working at home. It has given me more time to be creating as I now share my crafting space with my daytime office. I make sure that I keep my daytime work off my crafting desk so as to not kill the mojo there! Silly I know but still something I can't bring myself to do ... LOL! I do bring my crafting work to my office desk, but to be fair, my office desk was originally part of my crafting space.

I've stepped more out of my comfort zone and I now host online club nights! We used to get together once a month in a community hall, but now we all connect through Zoom! It has been a lifeline for me at times! It doesn't stop there. I hosted my first virtual retreat back in May 2020. It was a two day event filled with games and live video's teaching how to create some fun projects. We get together weekly for Virtual Coffee and Conversation as well! On this night, anyone can pop in and create and chat. I have to admit that I spend more of those nights chatting than creating!

But throughout all this crazy, I've been creating and I've been loving life! So here's to 2021!


Catch you on the flip side!
