From 7/9-11, ALL two-tone cardstock will be 20% off!!
I've just started using this cardstock (it's 12x12").  This is the perfect opportunity to stock up on a crafting essential that's great for both card making and scrapbooking.  Be sure to look at the wide variety of available colors (p. 77).  This cardstock has the White Core, which is great or tearing, sanding, crumbling, embossing, etc. for a different look.

Perfectly Pears is new Online Exclusive for July.  I love the look of these pears.  Thanks to Amy Koenders for the inspiration,  The outline is stamped with Black Memento ink and then the inside is stamped Darling Duckling and sponged with a dauber with Old Olive.  The flowers are from the Happy Hibiscus set. The inside has the smaller pears, too. It was a fun card to make and has beautiful results.

New Month--New Products--Sunflowers

It seems most people love Sunflowers.  I know I do, so I was thrilled to see this in the New Release for July.  They are all over the internet, especially Pinterest!
The background of the card was "debossed" with the folder and a few flower centers were sponged with daubers in Crushed Curry.  The another sunflower was embossed, sponged, and fussy cut to be placed on the front with Dimensionals.  Love it!!

NEW Products released for July--
Two new kits and July Online Exclusives are now available!  Kits come with everything you need; shop the new Birthday Fancy Kit and the Sweet & Spooky Kit.

Memories of Sailing

What a beautiful weekend we had here in the desert.  Windows were open, temps were mild, and fresh air came in! I was reminded of the great days growing up in So Cal.  My best friend in high school, Jill, and her family had a sailboat at the marina.  I spent many a weekend with them sailing to Catalina, Channel Islands, and of course, varnishing the teak.  Patty Bennett's Sunrise Sailboat brought back great memories of sailing.  I love the feeling of being on the ocean.


This is a book fold card. I had never used Two-Tone cardstock or sanding blocks before.  I love the look of the white center of the paper coming through.  The Sunrise Sailing Hybrid Embossing Folder will emboss the paper and emboss and die cut the boat.  Blending some Lost Lagoon gives depth to the ocean. The Real Red and White Baker's Twine adds a nautical theme--be sure to fray the edges.  Let me know what you think----Susie
