Mom



Sometimes moms just need a card for no occasion. I decided to use an amalgamation of products from Simon Says Stamp and Altenew. Paired together I am able to make this elegant card for moms.

Sometimes all you need is one layering stencil to create a simple card design and a bold sentiment to top it off! Todays card was inspired by the thoughtfulness of a family member. I hope she enjoys it as much as I enjoyed making it for her.

Thanks For Everything

 Hey everyone! Gina K Designs has a monthly kit that is jammed packed with amazing products with an incredible value. With that being said, one of her kits included a pack of beautiful Ephemera sheets and coordinating die. I have never worked with Ephemera before so I thought I would challenge myself and incorporate them on one of my cards. Needless to say I love it! To be honest, I thought it might take away the handmade feel since they are preprinted images on thick paper, I was so wrong! 

Here is the final results!
