The challenge at Heart 2 Heart this week is to use ribbon.  Yes.  I said ribbon.  Being that ribbon is in my top three of favorite items to use, only behind paper and ink, I feel like quoting Homer Simpson with a “Doh!” (I don’t watch it.  Remember, I teach 14 year olds).  Out of…

Wow!  Does time go by fast!  It’s time for another challenge over at Heart 2 Heart!  This week is an inspiration photo! I knew from the beginning that I wanted to create a CAS (clean and simple) card, as I just love how they look.  So I checked out a few websites for some inspiration…

A new workshop! "Cards Etc."

I’ve tried to hold card classes in the past, but there just wasn’t enough interest.  However, in the last couple of months, there have been a few people who have expressed a desire to attend a card class.  So I decided to start one.  Having the kind of attitude expressed in the movie, “Field of…
