Happy Wednesday


Hello there,

I thought this AI stamp was perfect for my husband and grandson. He always calls him little man. Yes the stamp is from Art Impressions called "Little Man". Simply adorable and easy to color.

I colored him with Copic Markers E000,  E01, R000, R01 and R20. I paper pieced his diaper and cap. I used a spellbinders die, Maja paper and a Prima tag. To embellish my design I used floss, ribbon and a turtle charm.

Don't forget our 7th day of Christmas is 15% off your order at 7 Kids College Fund. And yes, please enter our challenge.....


Here is what my "Little Man" looks like....

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Almost Thanksgiving,

Today I would like to share 3 easy to make Christmas Cards. They are simple but elegant. If you don't  have die cuts you could use embellishments to match the theme of your cards. I chose images from Pion and Maja paper distressed them and added Frantage. Added a complimentary background paper also distressed the edges. Used some ribbon bling and snow die cuts.

Below are the items I used from the 7 Kids College Fund Store:
