Hey Peeps! I’m sharing a card today I created with the new collection Butterfly Lullaby just released from Crafter’s Companion. This new line is so sweet with gorgeous die cuts, floral patterned papers and coordinating embossing folders.
For this card I used the 6×6 Paper Pad, Daisy Trail Embossing Folder, 3D Circle Die, and With Love Die.
Once I had the 3D Circle Die cut out……I masked the background with scrap paper and added lovely silvery embossing powder and heat set it to create a pretty accent then wove the Grape Plaid Ribbon trough it like a buckle.
Okay that’s all for me. Wishing all of you a happy and productive day with lots of time to be creative : ) G

Hey there Peeps! Ginny here to share another mixed media tag I created for a certain someone to surprise him on his weekend trip away from home.
I know you all are used to me adding big gimongus bows to my projects…but this tag really called for lots of ribbon in a variety of textures and widths and patterns. Also I wanted to reduce the bulkiness of it for packing so it’s just run through the metal eyelet and tied off with twine.
The mixed media plan for this card was to add a variety of mediums like inks and stamps and Gelatos….but keep all the colors relatively dark to minimize the contrast.
This combination of embellishments started with an altered chipboard frame then layers of hearts and tags and metal gears. That fabulous texture in the background comes from some packaging material that came in a box of lovely treats from my BOLB Kathy Clement. A little gold paint was all that it needed to dress it up and coordinate it with the gold on the chipboard heart.
Difficult to see…but I added a bit of acrylic film strip ribbon. If you have some in your own stash…you will know it’s packaged in a fun tiny metal tin. I attempted to take out a small length to add to this tag but it turns out to be a little like those old cans that would have a faux snake squished in that would pop out and surprise the person opening the can…..so there was acrylic ribbon just flying everywhere. I felt like the Three Stooges lol.
Okay on to that glorious ribbon combination~Black Plaid, Diagonal Stripe in Black, Black with Four Thin Stripes Sheer.

Hey there Peeps. I’m just dropping in on this chilly Sunday morning to share a tag I created as a thank you gift to one of the ladies working hard behind the scenes at Crafter’s Companion. Miss Teena fills our DT allotment goodies boxes stuffed full of fabulous supplies so we’ll have everything we need to create our samples to share with you. It’s a bit like Christmas to receive these fabulous treats.
I’ve been growing my selection of stamps to create my own backgrounds. And with lot’s of practice I’m getting much better knowing what mediums play well together. And unfortunately which ones don’t lol. I’ve also used my Spectrum Noir Markers to color the flowers and trim for this tag : )

Hey there Peeps! Well I’m here today to admit that I have a problem. I am a chronic list writer. Any little scrap of paper is fair game to scribble on. Is the list the problem? Nope. Losing the lists is the problem. When you write important information on something that looks like trash…..guess what’s gonna happen? Yep you got it…lost lists. So I created a hardcover pocket folio to tuck in all those precious little scraps.
I’ve already put it to work as you can see!

Hey there Paper Peeps! Ginny here to share a very special card I created for my dear friend and crafty conspirator Jennifer. We go wayyyyyy back to when our kids were little. We actually both have an Alexander (same age now and nearly done with college) and a Jonathan (one year apart and nearly done with high school.) So we’ve sat together at more football practices and band performances and scout meetings than you can count. We even have matching stadium outfits lol. Anyhoo….she’s a very special friend and I’m so glad she had a nice birthday!
