2026: Things With Wings Challenge Card- HELLO [Card101]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I had a bit of free time (GASP!!!) and decided to play in the studio yesterday! 

I decided to pull out a few supplies: quilted patterned papers (I think it looks like the flying geese pattern but I could be wrong!), sewing themed dies, and butterflies. With all of these mixed and matched goodies, I created this fun friendship card.

It's perfect for the Simon Says Stamp IG Challenge! I hope one day to join in the fun with their Wednesday challenge too:) 

That's it for me today.

2026: Simple Stripes with TapeRunner Adhesive

Hello again, sweet friends! 

Today I am sharing a quick way to add colorful stripes to a negative image or panel. 

 

This card was created for my sweet friend and Finn's best friend's mom- she lost Tiberius a few weeks ago. The colorful stripes remind me of Tiberius' winter coat- he had a winter jacket that was dark blue with a hint of orange and white. He was sooooooooooooo cute! 

Here's a photo of Finn and Tiberius (without his coat) walking together. I love that Tiberius was so small and friends with Finn! 

 

Making this striped background is super EASY! The key to keeping the strips of cardstock in place is using a great adhesive like TapeRunner! I use this for ALL of my striped cardstock backgrounds!

Here are some quick steps to make your own striped background: 

Gather your supplies- I'm using TapeRunner adhesive with Pink & Main Pet Angels stamps and Paw Print dies, as well as a retired die set from Paper Smooches to create the vellum dog image.

 

You can see I already have my colored cardstock cut into strips and used washi tape to hold the strips together in the order I would like them on my cardbase. 

Next I drew a rough image of where the negative image panel would be placed on my cardbase. Then I added some TapeRunner adhesive to this exact location. After applying adhesive to the rough location of this image, I added one more layer of adhesive about an inch around this spot- just so I knew that I had enough adhesive for the image and strips of cardstock. **It's never bad to use too much adhesive :)  

I also added adhesive to the negative image panel back- this will help the strips and cardbase stick together. 

To finish the card, I just sandwiched the cardbase with the strips of cardstock to the negative image panel. EASY! 

 

I love how easy it is to use the TapeRunner adhesive! I also love how strong this adhesive is- I think I might have to use this striped background for MORE negative image paneled cards :)

2026: Another Pet Sympathy Card

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I've had to make an unusual amount of sympathy cards this year and specifically pet sympathy cards 😢

I mixed and matched so many products for this card because I wanted to make the prettiest rainbow bridge I could. I looooooooooooove that vellum die cut pup. It's the sweetest touch to this card. 

That's it for me today. I had to make another pet sypmathy card and will share that tomorrow! And I just found out my brother's 14 year old dog passed this week. So be on the lookout for all of these cards 👀

2026: YourPaperInsider Wedding Card [Card #097]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

To be honest, I struggle with creating cards for my friends and family... I just want everything to look perfect and be different than anything I've ever made before. That's hard when I've made around 350 cards yearly for over 10 years🤣

 

This card is for a special friend of mine that is getting married in May. Because I'm mentoring her and sharing everything I wish I had known before getting married, as well as what I've learned since being married and over the last 20 years.... I wanted this card to be EXTRA special! 

 

That's why I pulled out my YourPaperInsider Box 14 papers (listed below). There were four blue papers that matched my friend's wedding colors PERFECTLY! I love that metallic blue and the layered soft blues on the wedding dress! 

 

The embossed flower image on the background paper is my FAVORITE- that Pink & Main Naval Officer embossing powder matched PERFECTLY!  

I think all the stress and pressure I put on myself to make a PERFECT card was unnecessary because the papers and craft supplies made this card turn out PERFECT🙃

 

That's it for me today.

2026: Watercolor + TapeRunner + MORE Sympathy Cards

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm back to share MORE creations... unfortunately, I needed to make MORE sympathy cards (again). 

 

I wanted to try something new for these designs. I was inspired by a craft that my Mom, older brother, and his family helped me create during their spring break (MORE on that soon👀)- watercoloring! 

 

I watercolored some background pieces and used them behind some die cut cover pieces. What really surprised me is that the TapeRunner adhesive was strong enough to hold the watercolor paper to the cardbase. If you have worked with watercolors before, then you know it warps the paper/etc. But all of the TapeRunner adhesive did it's job and held strong!!!!  

I used the TR pink adhesive on the first card, and the TR retractable adhesive on the second set. I used adhesive on the cardbase, watercolor panel, and die cut cover panel! I'm really loving that retractable adhesive- it's so easy to use! Just click and adhere! 

I loooooooooooove how these turned out. I pray that they bring comfort and peace to our friends during this difficult time ❤️

That's it for me today.

2026: How Many TapeRunner Adhesives Have I used in 2026?

This photo shows just how much I love my TR adhesives- these adhesive cartridges are EMPTY (just like Christ's tomb!!! Perfect for Easter! LOL!)!!! I use TR adhesives on EVERY project!!! So far I have created 93 cards--- I'd say that this amount of adhesive is a good amount for that many cards😉

2026: Custom Birthday Card [card #76]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I was recently asked to make a custom birthday card for my neighbor's son. She gave a few things that might inspire me: a sport's team/colors, blue crabs, boating, green/blue, and fishing. 

 

After discussing with her my ideas and what I could do using my supplies... we landed on a fishing theme. She then sent me a photo of her son fishing (one where he had just caught a catfish), and I knew we chose the right theme!

The best part about this card is that my mom helped me create it! This card was due while she was visiting so I pulled her into my studio to help get inky, die cut, and kind of be my sous chef/crafter! Hopefully she had fun making this with me;)  

That's it for me today.
