Pair-A-Phrase

I didn’t have time to do a page layout this week, but I did make several cards. Cards are easier for me because I can do them on my down time at work. I can’t very well pack all of the supplies I need to do pages, but I can take along stuff for card making. I decided to make cards with the Pair-A-Phrase stamp set and boy, did I make a lot of cards.

In fact, I have an extra set of 10 cards to give away. If you would like a chance to win them, all you need to do is become a follower of this blog and like my facebook page.

Mojo Monday 213

Mojo Monday has challenged us to use non-trditional size cards for this week. One of the sketches they had was for a circle card. I have done very few circle cards, so I thought I would try that challeneg. I have never done a clear card before, so I challenged myself to do that as well. I am happy with the results.

Lovely New Papers!

I was sitting here drooling over the paper in the new Idea Book. Close to My Heart has really outdone themselves this time.There are not 4 or 5 new paper packs….wait for it…THERE ARE 8!!!

I can’t sit here and drool all by myself, so I am going to let you have a sneak peek. Shhh…it’s a secret!

You can order from the new book on February 1. You can shop on my website or contact me if you need a catalog. It would be a great time to book a home gathering and earn some of the products for free! Here is your sneak peek:
