Washi Paper Heart Valentine's - 2018

While making my Valentine's cards, I decided to use up some of my washi paper scraps. I make a ton of iris folding cards using washi paper and end up with tons of scraps too good to toss. I used fun foam to pop the hearts up and a little wink of stella for some shimmer.

2018 Valentine's Day Card

Valentine's Day 2018

I'm really having fun with my new Paper Smooches cross stitch die. Having been crafting all my life, I have a lot of stuff to pull from. With enough thread to cover a house, it's fun to finally pull them out of storage. I went with clean and simple because I do send out a lot of cards and cross stitch takes time. It was a goal for the last 2 years that I send out cards for every holiday, birthday and just because.

Cross Stitch Cards - 2017




I finally got the die cut (Paper Smooches) that makes the little holes to cross stitch. Big thank you to Jennifer Mcguire, who did a great Youtube video that inspired those of us who love to cross stitch & card making to convert over to paper. I plan to do a workshop at Fabmo using this die. These aren't fast cards so at least for me, they only go out to card worthy friends. :)

Used Rubber Stamp Sale Stamps

With the 2018 used rubber stamp sale coming up next month, I have to hustle to use the stamps I picked up at last year's sale. My goal is to get stamps or supplies that I will use within one year. I usually don't put anything on the inside of my cards but after watching Amy R of Prairie and Paper videos, I made the leap and adding some embellishing on the inside.
