Hello everyone! The Sew Easy Stitching Templates have been on my wish list for a while. I placed my order for them as soon as they became available at We R Memory Keepers's official online store! WRMK is also generously giving me a set of the 4 new stitching templates as well as two spools of their Fancy Floss to giveaway on the blog here! Check out the details at the bottom of this post! I tried the stitching templates on paper (shared here) and decided to try a different surface with a masking technique! I'm very happy with my stitched...

Hello everyone! I'm joining my sweet peeps at Pebbles in a blog hop today for National Scrapbook Day! I'm sharing a flower pot keepsake using my beloved scrapbooking supply: patterned paper! I have had this photo of me and my cousin from 25 years ago (ahem, at least...) printed for a while. I used an app on my phone to add the frame and sentiment "Remember the time?" I couldn't find a good match to create a keepsake for this photo until Pebbles released the Americana collection earlier this year. It is a 4th of July themed collection but the...

I also diecut a few butterflies...

Hello everyone! Popped in to share a teacher's gift idea! A quick and easy classroom decoration using Pebbles Garden Party collection. This is one of the projects that you may not want the others to see the back, haha! I made it from a piece of cardboard. I cut a piece of a carton to 12" x 5-1/8" for my project. First, I cut three 12"x1-1/2" strips from the pink grids paper and die cut the scallop borders from them. You can also hand draw some scallops and cut out. I adhered the scallops down first and then covered the...

Hello everyone! Popped in to share a card I made using Pebbles Special Delivery Boy collection. I put a tiny piece of foam adhesive on the back of the little fox's head to add some extra dimension to the card. Isn't he the cutest? Thank you for stopping by! Happy Crafting!

Hello everyone! Popping in to share some fun I've had playing with the custom letterpress printing plates from Lifestyle Crafts / We R Memory Keepers. I love all the pre-designed printing plates  by Lifestyle Crafts, but I've always wanted to have some of my own. I've also got to play with the new and improved L Letterpress Platform (which will be available in WRMK official online store tomorrow, April 10!). I love that we have a few inks and some cleaning cloths to get started without further investment! Unboxing L Letterpress Platform (Watch it below or in HD on YouTube) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOXScgGYcoU Since I've...
