One of the new sets in the Occasions Mini Catalog (good from April 1st to June 30th) is Wagon Full of Fun (113262, page 13). It's a very versatile set and since we are "Duck" fans, I just had to make this card. Stamp Set: Wagon Full of Fun Card Stock: So Saffron, Whisper White,…
I'm so gone on this paper, that I find myself picking it over all my other papers (and, yes, I have them all). With the new Scallop Oval punch available in the Occasions Mini Catalog, I've been using it almost exclusively. It's SO beautiful and adds so much to a card. And right now, if…
The Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set has become one of my all-time favorites. This is SUCH a versatile set and I have had fun using it. Here's a card I made that uses embossing. Very simple, but very elegant. No sentiment yet as I'm not sure when I will use it, but It's waiting for…
