Art Cards
Handmade cards using rubber stamps, decorative papers, fibers, charms, and anything else that looks cool.
Fall Card With Envelope Pocket
This card is easy to make and fun to stamp up. I cut a 4 1/2″ strip along the long side of an 8 1/2″ X 11″ piece of cardstock. I folded it twice, into thirds, and then decorated/stamped each section. My favorite part is the gift tag envelope […]

Graduation ’09
Last night I attended a homeschool graduation ceremony for the first time. We were invited to see a good friend of mine’s son graduate, along with two others. I had been prayerfully working […]
