It’s a floral challenge this week at Heart 2 Heart. Easy peasy, right? I thought so. Until I tried to use a needle and thread to create textile flowers. Let’s just say, one broken needle and several puncture wounds later, that sewing isn’t my thing. 😉 So after hours of trying…literally hours…something in the range of…

Blog Candy Winner Announced….Finally
You know, I really don’t mean to promise things and then fail to follow through. But two weeks ago I posted some blog candy with the intent of posting the winner a week ago, but as it seems to go lately, life got in the way and it slipped my mind. So I’m posting the…
A Note for You
This week at Heart 2 Heart the challenges is to “Tuck It In”. In other words, use envelopes in some form or fashion or some kind of tuck. My card was inspired by some envelope advent calendars on Pinterest. I used Dream Pop papers which will be available on May 1st for only $10 with a…
Later Sk8r Sneak Peak & Blog Candy
I’m spending the weekend with a few friends at a scrapbook retreat in Port. St. Lucie. It’s been great to have some uninterrupted time to create (and get caught up). Apparently, though, I’m the slowest scrapper in the history of the craft, as I’ve really only completed one layout (May’s workshop layout), while my friends…
Button Challenge at Heart 2 Heart
This week at Heart 2 Heart the challenges is to use buttons. How hard is that? Easy, right? It’s probably safe to say that we all have a “supply” somewhere. A jar, a drawer, whatever. We have enough buttons in our arsenal to easily replace every button, on every piece of clothing we own, for the rest…
Another workshop card
Here’s the third card we will be making at my monthly Cards, Etc. class, on Monday, April 15th. (In order to be able to submit this card to various challenges, I had to post it separately.) No biggie, though. At any rate, the background on this card was inspired by this card created by Brenda…

This month I will start having my monthly card class on Monday evenings, due to customer feedback. This month will be on Monday, April…
Ready for some "Pun Fun"?
This week at Heart 2 Heart the challenges is to include a pun in your project. Puns are so much fun, don’t you think? Honestly, puns are a staple of card making and even scrapbooking. Despite that fact, I still managed to always have the same problem I always have…what to make? So here’s what…
