I have a large sympathy card to share today. It is a full sheet (8.5 x 11) folded in half. Sometimes I just like to make large cards. It gives you more room to add what you like. Also, I often make large cards (usually birthday) for people at church when everyone needs to sign […]

They are set atop a lovely, but simple, embossed background and accented with the perfect strip of sheer ribbon. This mostly white on white card could serve a variety of purposes. It screams “wedding” to me, but what a lovely […]

She embossed a piece of our silver mirror cardstock and as lovely as that was, Heidi was going for a more aged look, so she sanded the embossed sheet resulting in a beautiful, aged finish. The sanding makes […]
