Happy Cards for a Happy Day…

Yesterday was such a lovely Spring day.

The sun was shining, the birds were singing.

My teenage son wanted to go out with me for dinner!

You know… a “Happy” kind of day.

So a good day deserves some “Happy Day” cards.

Cards to make you “Smile”.

And… if you like these cards and would like to make a set for yourself, we will be making these cards in my “Happy Day Cards” class that I’ll be teaching in May at The Paper Forest.

Celebrate Christmas with Graphic 45 (edited)

October 19, 2014October 9, 2015Leave a comment

(Celebrate Christmas with Graphic 45 was a card class that I gave in November of 2014.)

In this class, I showed how to make use of the varied patterns and bits & pieces to create layered pieces with charm and style.

The Vintage Christmas collection from Graphic 45 is based off the classic tale “Twas the Night Before Christmas. This collection is packed with all the fun and traditional images of this festive season. Reds, greens, gold and cream – this collection will remind you of all the special moments in this special time.
