Between my husband and my college-aged sons, I am regularly in need of masculine cards. And with the difficulties of the past year, I regularly need “hugs” cards. To have a card in my stash for them, I used the Whittle Wood Picture Frames to create a little lake scene surrounded by evergreens with a…
I adore all of the Whittles (even the Whittle Shark!!) One of the many reasons that I love them are they are perfect for cards for my sons. They are 21 and 25-years old so I really cannot use anything cutesy (nor anything with bling). The Whittles strike the perfect middle ground; they are absolutely…
Hello crafters! Sue here with a card using some of the new dies from the Whittle Wonders release. There are a lot of cute Whittle critters and I chose to use the lizard along with some cacti. I made the background first by die cutting a bunch of the lizards from white cardstock and adhering…
Hello everyone! I’m here with a reminder about Poppystamps January Challenge, Monochrome. This has to be one of my favourite colour schemes because I’m not so great at using lots of different colours on one card (unless it’s a rainbow). Monochrome is defined as a project created in shades of black and white or in…
My 21-year old son is one of the last people for whom I need to make a Christmas card. There was little doubt in my mind that a card with this sentiment and the moose with his cute expression would be just perfect for my son. He’s enjoying his college life away from us, perhaps…
Happy Tuesday crafters! Sue her with a clean and simple masculine Christmas card. I find it tough to make masculine cards for any occasion and that includes Christmas so I thought I would really try to create a project that was understated, maybe a bit elegant and be appropriate for a guy for the holiday…
Happy Monday crafters! Sue here with my first autumn card of the season. We’ve had a hot summer in my area and now I’m grateful for the cooler weather. With the cooler weather comes the changing of the leaves, which are so pretty! I started by taking white cardstock and applying Distress Inks in shades…
Happy Monday crafters! I’m joining you today with a charming little scene on an easel card. There’s lots of die cutting on this card but it’s easy to put together. The hardest part was choosing the colour scheme. I started by die cutting my easel piece which is from the new Porch Pop Up Easel…
Hello everyone, Sue here with a Christmas shaker card! Who doesn’t love getting a fun shaker card, I know I do, but it’s also fun to make them! I used the new Snowglobe Kit which makes it so easy to put together. I started off my die cutting all my pieces. I used some patterned…
Nothing like a BIG hug on your birthday! These large word dies from Poppystamps have taken me by storm!! Hope you aren’t getting too bored with me designing with them BUT they are so versatile! I think this design is gender neutral, but with the grey/brown tones it’s more masculine. With a simple switch of…
