June Stamp of the Month…"Hello Foxy"

Where Old Meets New
As a Close To My Heart consultant, we are able to order products a month before they are available to customers. This gives a chance to try them out by preparing our projects for upcoming workshops, gatherings, open houses, etc. In preparing for next month’s Cards, Etc. class, I chose to use the new…

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…

Secret Message Thank You Card
I found a secret message technique on the internet the other day and I thought I would try it out with a 3 1/2 x 8″ Thank You card. I’m waiting on my new goodies from the upcoming Idea Book to arrive mid-week, so until then, I decided to revisit my Dakota paper pack. I…
