Adoring Hearts with Everyday You & Me

My weekly live last Wednesday was this colorful celebration card.  It would be great for any occasion really.  It could be birthday, wedding or even Mother's Day.  I love how coloful it is.  The new 12 x 12 pack that isn't out for customers yet is wonderful.  I'll type in the information below for the item number, it isn't added into the inventory on this site yet.  I think this is currrently my go to paper because it is so cheery.  The papers coming out in a couple of weeks are gorgeous, I have three top picks!!  You can see the YouTube video for this card if you click here,  For a hot minute Facebook will have it here and then around 5/10 they will remove it and you'll have to look on YT.  Remember my YT video is a download of my live so you may want to fast forward through any beginning chit chat and get right to the card!!

March Paper Pumpkin Alternates

I have my alternate designs created, videoed, and posted for the March 2025 kitt!  A little behind I think, but they are done!  I like how they turned out.  I kept it to the kit or told you supplies you could use to create it like mine.  Nothing too complicated so you can easily bling it up to your own liking.  You can see the FB album here.  I have a playlist on YouTube that you can go to here.  I will also link the individual videos just in case the playlist is hard to use.  

This kit was such a nice one.  I say it all the time but they sure do seem to be getting better each month.  I'm glad I stuck with it.  If you haven't gotten one in awhile, I highly suggest you give it a try again.  Even just a 3 month prepaid subscription.

Natural Botanicals trio of cards

My weekly live last week focused on the Stampin' UP! set called Natural Botanicals.  I made three different card designs, but all of them were quite simple for everyone to be able to replicate.  I used a lot of inks and a variety of products but they can be easily duplicated with supplies you have on hand.  You can see the YouTube video here.

All Zipped Up and ready to go!!

I created these designs for my OnStage swap.  I did several styles and designs.  I thought the half zip hoodie had a nice masculine feel, even though the papers weren't quite!!  They are really fun to make and I think you will enjoy the die set if you purchase it.  I hope my designs give you a little inspiration.  The sky is the limit on these.  Here is a link to the video I did for my Feb Christmas card live that shows how to assemble.

Butterflies and Flowers!!

Well if last week wasn't a slight fiasco!  I had a horrible connection for my weekly live, but so thankful for those that stuck with me through it!  I was able to do it over early on Friday morning though.  I was glad to do it again because I really wanted the cuteness of the note card and the flowers to get some eyes on it.  The two cards I made are below.  I haven't played with the Beautiful Butterflies bundle to much so it was fun.  I also go to play a bit more with the new set coming out in May's online exclusives called Impressions Abloom.  You can see the videos by click on the links.  Facebook, which may be gone by the time you see this post.  They are only staying for 30 days I believe....so if it's after April 2025 it's not there.  The YouTube version should be haning around for eternity, unless they change policy too.  You can view it on YT here.

Christmas Video for March

I forgot to post the Christmas video information for you!  Last week on the 25th I did my card with the Sophisticated Sled set and some non traditional colors.  I love how it turned out.  I did find after the video was over that there is a slit in the skates to put the laces through!!  I posted info in the comments for that, but they might go away when Facebook takes the video down.  I'm not sure yet if the video goes and the rest of the post stays or how it's going to work!!  Also, with Facebook taking away live videos after a short time, I am only going to give you the link to the YouTube moving forward.  So, if you'd like to see the video for the Christmas card you can see it here.

Dimensions:

base- coastal cabana 81/2 x 5 1/2"

layer of soft seafoam 4 x 5 1/4"

layer of designer paper 3 7/8 x 5 1/8"

inside layer of coastal cabana 3 1/8 x 4 3/8"

In Color card this week on my live

This week I created a card inspired by Teri West, and used all the new in colors.  It is really easy and the look is so fun!!  I wanted to show off the new colors that will be arriving in the upcoming catalog and I think this did a nice job of it.  I think you will like the colors, Secret Sea is my favorite!!  Take a peek at the YouTube video here.  (I'm not going to post the FB link since it has a good chance to be removed before you get here).  I hope you give this fun card a try.  It would be a great card for kids too.

All Zipped Up for Christmas!

I created this fun design for the February Christmas card live.  There are so many things you can do with this zipper bundle called All Zipped Up.  You can click here to see it on YouTube.

Here is another version of it.  The Christmas video used patterned paper for the main sweatshirt and the one below uses an embossing folder to give cardstock some texture.  This one looks a little more like a cardigan sweater with the pattern.
