Happy Festive crafting season!! Today I am on the Creative Scrapbooker Magazine blog playing with the Simple Stories Tis the Season collection! I absolutely love creating for the holiday season, from cards to home decor and of course documenting all the Holiday memories for my scrapbooks. I especially enjoy making Christmas cards, adding to my collection of all things Christmas all year long and coming up with new designs using all the gorgeous things!!

Art Impressions Christmas Slimline Stamp Set and Cathie Allan

September 14, 2023 No Comments

Cathie Allan was very busy designing projects using this Art Impressions Christmas Slimline Stamp Set. Here is a look at one of the layouts she designed. And here is a fabulous coordinating card. That snowman from the Art Impressions Christmas Slimline stamp set is absolutely delicious. WOWZA! Stunning creations Cathie! I love that Cathie used the stamp on BOTH a card and a layout. We often purchase supplies with one thing in mind and forget that there are so many possibilities and projects that it could apply to! Cathie’s projects both have a really unique aspect to them – they both include REMOVABLE tags that you can take off and hang on the Christmas tree. How stinkin’ cool is that! Both of these projects were featured in the Fall issue of Creative Scrapbooker Magazine in Cathie’s regular column – Cathie’s Choice.Do you have your copy yet? CLICK HERE to order…

May 8, 2023 No Comments

Good Morning! Kim here, haven’t seen you for a bit! Last December I officially backed away from Design Team assignments, life was taking up too much time and creative deadlines were harder to meet! I promised Jackie & Katharina that I was still their biggest fan and would send along a blog post whenever time permitted…so here I am! I find myself using up a lot of mixed media stash that I have these days; and there is a lot! This fun card for my nephew is a perfect example. I will often sit a have a gel plate printing session with my Ranger inks, paints and gel plates, they continue to be my favourites. Once complete I store all my prints in a ziplock bag to use in my art journal, card making and scrapbooking projects. That being said I cannot tell you exactly my process for the background,…
