Crop and Create Pink and Main

Crop and Create Delivered - Spring 2026 Pink and Main and a super fun window kit.  I clipped the cat's ear to make it look like my daughter's cat who is a rescue.  The kit includes the dog/cat, window, window box and flowers, the pull up layout and the cool clouds/sky/scene stencil.  

Forever Fern by Stampin' Up!

 I found these cards I made years ago as I was cleaning up my stamp room.  I love all of them- such fun techniques.  Just a few stamps and some ink blending.  It was also neat to try different ways to use the Best Plaid Die set.

Graduation 2026

 A UVA themed graduation card- using Taylored Expressions products.  (Hooray Create in Quad stencil) I'm sad I forgot to foil the words with my sparkly orange foil before I put the card together.  Next time!

Nested Rainbow Card

  I made this card with a set of nesting rectangle dies, a rainbow of cardstock, and a video from Jennifer Maguire.  Her easy to follow method lets you create as many cards as you have colors, all at once!! Very cool technique.

Lawn Fawn Graduation Card

 My son will be earning his Masters next week from the University of Maryland.  This card was made with Lawn Fawn supplies, and the turtle is part of the critter crew from Taylored Expressions.  I was inspired by Audrey Tosach's card on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DXUG2pzDS7G/?img_index=2

Mother's Day 2026

  While listening to the Get Organized Paper Summit this weekend, I was sorting things and put all of these cards together with things that I found on my desk or in bins that were already complete and just needed a little finishing.  I lost my mother in 2014, so I don't have a lot of Mother's Day stamps or dies, but I found a few greetings in some TE, SU Paper Pumpkin, and GK sets that worked great. \

Watercolor TE Card

I found about four half sheets of watercolored backgrounds, so I cut them into some usable shapes.  With this panel, I added the TE Scattered Meadow background stamp in Strawberry Milkshake, a mega message, and a few florals from the All Planned Out 5 die set.  Just in time for this month's watercolor challenge on the TE Fans facebook group!  

Crop and Create Regal Blooms and Regal Pair

 This Spellbinders class from Crop and Create Fall 25 was waaay outside my usual zone.  But I prepped it all anyways, and followed along with the class at the time, then it got sidelined. I pulled it out the other day, and found the two dog card complete, and the other two beautifully blended backgrounds, so I pulled out the pieces and put the cards together.  I'm not sure I will use these sets again, but it's good to try things you might normally shy away from.
