Love IS Timeless is the name of this fabulous card.   I used several different embellishments and of course some bling. I layered different colored Stampin Up papers.  The hands of the clock is Tim Holtz Idea-ology.  I used a heart shaped brad in the middle of the clock. Love the paper piercing technique and pierced around the outer layer of the Fuse Embellishment and sewed white colored embroidery thread around it to give is a nice finish. I also used various ribbons and Paper Studio border stickers along the top, middle and bottom to tie in some more color to the card.  I used a cuttlebug folder with clocks on half of the card.  This card could be used as an anniversary card – or just an everyday I love you card.  Enjoy!

Wedding Thank You's


Wedding Thank You's make a wonderful ... personalized gift.  The wedding I made these for was absolutely beautiful and was very vintage.  The ceremony and the reception were at a park.  Fresh wild flowers in mason jars - along with doilies hanging from the trees.   Well done... well done!

Sports, sports and more sports!


Living in the Mid-West - EVERYONE eats, drinks, and sleeps Wisconsin sports.  I am married to a die-hard sports fanatic.  I had a hard time trying to find cards with my husbands favorite teams - SO I found a way to make them.   I purchased the stickers at JoAnn Fabrics for the Brewer/Packer stickers.  I used some baseball and football eyelets.  Striped Sizzix embosssing folder.   Stampin Up Night of Navy and Brushed Gold paper.




Living near a college town - the Wisconsin Badgers are the life of a Madison on Saturdays during football, basketball and hockey season.  I found the stickers at a Wisconsin appearal shop.  I love cirlces - used Fiskars circle punches to layer.   Large circle embossing folder.  Attached the black paper before I embossed the cardstock.   Popped up the circles !!   GO BADGERS !!


We love Daddy
