Hello Flowers

I'm also working through my stash of stickers, hoping to use them up on some cards. Bold scripty words with stripes and florals just work!

Sending Christmas Cheer

We are far from Christmas, but I thought I would get a little head start and make a card here and there for my stash. Hopefully, this will make the holiday season less demanding/stressful.

Rainbow Hello

Spring is here, and while I'm not a fan of the seasonal allergies (ugh, pollen count), I do enjoy using pastels and rainbows to make bright and cheerful cards.

Astro-World

With so many boys in the family, I'm perpetually in need of boy cards. Thankfully, I've got a few fun boy-themed stamps in my stash that make boy cards a breeze.

Dragon Hugs

As you may have noticed, things have been a little quiet around here lately. With the Covid-19 pandemic situation, there have been a lot of changes - both for me personally and for the society as a whole. For a while, I found myself too stressed out to even think about creativity. But I'm slowly finding a balance again and hoping to get crafty and share what I've created here and there again.

My postings might be consistent for a while as I'm working through a backlog of cards I've made recently, but they might also get spotty again after. There is still a lot of uncertainty and a lot of time spent finding the "new normal". Hopefully, I can build up some momentum and get back to doing what I enjoy.

Watercolor Hello

Tomorrow is my birthday and I'm ready to celebrate. I won't be sharing a card, so here is a mermaid-y creation today to share the joy. I did a little bit of watercoloring and stamping for texture. I think it turned out pretty great.

Special Friend

I got a small set of blending brushes for Christmas, and I really wanted to try them out. I went for a super soft barely-there blend, and the brushes are really excellent for that. I will have to play with them again sometime.

Note, this is my 1000th blog post. Queue small celebration, hooray~!
