2026: Playing in the Studio

Hello again, sweet friends! 

Do you ever just play around in your craft studio? 

 

Playing around and mixing and matching alllllll kind of companies/supplies is one of my FAVORITE things to do!

 

Why? Because I am free to just create. 

Because I don't have an agenda or project deadline. 

Because I can play with color stories. 

Because I can use supplies that I bought YEARS ago that I never had time for before! LOL!   

You can read MORE about this card on my IG page HERE! 

 

That's it for me today. I hope that you will play in your studio today- be sure to share with me so I can leave some love for you!!!

THANKS so much for stopping by! MORE to come 💌

Be blessed ❤️

To be honest, I made this card in May 2025 and never posted it! The only thing I know I used was some YourPaperInsider papers!!! Sorry I don't have the list of everything else <3 

2026: TapeRunner + Paper Smooches + Pink & Main + YourPaperInsider [Card #120]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm back to share a combo card made from 4️⃣ companies: TapeRunner, Paper Smooches NEW collab with Honey Bee Stamps, Pink & Main, and YourPaperInsider!!!

I am obsssssssssssssessed with making glittered die cut pieces using my TapeRunner adhesive and Pink & Main glitter!!! I had to do it again... however, I only did this technique for the red glittered heart 🙃  

 

The multicolored glittered paper is from YourPaperInsider Box 14 papers- it's so chunky and fun! I also used the White Hemp Flower tissue paper from Box 14- this paper is so pretty and light! It added just the right detail behind my honeycomb design!

And have you checked out the NEW PS collab with HBS!??!? I am in love with Kim's designs- her style is the BEST! I love how this alcohol inked bee looks with the glittered honeycomb! And that sentiment- Kim's handwriting is the BEST!  

That's it for me today.

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: TapeRunner + YourPaperInsider Box 14 Purple Sympathy Cards [card #079-082]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I've been MIA because I spent a week with my family here in SC while they were on Spring Break- it was so much fun! I can't wait for them to come back and visit again! **You will see a few photos of my family while they were here SOON- they helped me finish a project:) 

I was able to get into the studio again today, but unfortunately, I needed to make three sympathy cards😭 I do not like making these cards- it breaks my heart! But I'm hoping that these cards bring comfort and peace as they remember their loved one ❤️

 

I used some of the purple cardstock from the YourPaperInsider Box 14 papers- they added just the right amount of purple with this watercolor patterned paper design! I love that velum- it's so soft and yet deep with the purple hue! *See supply list below for specific papers used! 

 

I also used my FAVORITE TapeRunner adhesive- I loooooooooooooove my TR adhesive! It's so smooth, easy to apply, and can be used on almost any piece of your card [see THIS post on how I add adhesive from a TapeRunner to a SMALL die cut letter]. 

These cards look simple but have layers and dimension because of the YPI papers and using the TR adhesive for all layers!  

 

That's it for me today. Unfortunately, I think I need to make MORE sympathy cards so I can stock up my stash... be on the lookout for MORE designs soon 👀

2026: A Few EXTRA YourPaperInsider cards

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm back to share a few EXTRA Box 13 YourPaperInsider cards that I've created. Some have already been posted on my IG page with MORE details. Be sure to check out my feed HERE! 

This card was created for the #TapeRunnerChallenge by TapeRunner! This was my 3rd card, and it probably used the MOST tape adhesive! LOL! 

This card is similar to the previous because when you have the supplies on your desk... one should always make another card! It was also created for the #TapeRunnerChallenge by TapeRunner! This was my 4th card! It also used A LOT of tape adhesive! LOL! 

This is probably my FAVORITE card I created using their Box 13 papers- I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! 

That's it for me today.

Hello again, sweet friends! 

This is a fun card that I created using some of Box 13 papers from YourPaperInsider. I *wish* the photos would show the shine and dimension of those snowflakes! 

 

I also realize that the penguin is not centered... I will fix that before I give this out:)  

Be on the lookout on my IG page for a little reel to show the shimmer and dimension of this fun card!

2025: Wise Men [card #338]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I had some time before leaving to create a quick card that focuses on a very important detail of why the Wise Men sought Jesus--- it's because they came to WORSHIP Him! 

*Side Note: The wise men didn't come when Jesus was BORN... they came when Jesus was an infant (maybe 1-2 years old). Technically the wise men were NOT a part of the manger scene. 

I love that this card was easy to make and focuses on worshiping Jesus. LOVE LOVE LOVE! 

That's it for me today.

2025: YourPaperInsider Winter Wonderland [card #329]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I don't know why my photos do not look good on my blog!??! OY! Sorry! This is a pretty card in person! 

I had a lot of fun creating this card using the NEW YourPaperInsider Box 13 goodies! 

I noticed that the first five papers in the box were all hues of blue and knew immediately that I wanted to create a snowflake using ALL of the papers❄️ 

All I did was cut two or three strips of paper from each color and then layered them behind the large white snowflake. I added a few ribbons and thread for extra dimension. I love that background paper too--- it's shimmery and looks like the wind that is blowing. This is the kind of "cold" I can handle😉

Here are the YPI Box 13 papers that I used: 

❄️ Light Blue Living Wave Gmund Vibe

❄️Eucalyptus Curious Metallics

❄️Aurora Origami Gift Pack- blue

❄️Amazon Blue Lessebo

❄️Silver Holographic Micro Mosaic

❄️Light Blue Mizutama Rayon

❄️White Holographic Confetti Jr. 

That's it for me today.

2025: Emmanuel [card #312]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

 **Do not mind the very BLUE photo! I cannot figure out my camera settings and the natural sun right now! OY! 

When I make my holiday cards, I love focusing on the REAL meaning of CHRISTmas. The NEW Erin Lee Creative holiday release is the PERFECT way tot add Christ into my Christmas cards! 

This CAS Christmas card focusses on why Christ came- He is Emmanuel, God with us! Praise the Lord🙌🏻

I think my supplies for this card are more complex than the card design itself 🤣 I mixed and matched a few companies including: 

• ELC Love Came Down stamps, Starry night stencil (dry embossing), Nativity Add On die set
• Your Paper Insider Box 11 Mai Tai Cocktail Shimmer papers
• Pink & Main vellum paper- this vellum paper is soooooooooo thick, beautiful, and cuts like a dream! 

I wish I could have captured this card better- that Mai Tai Cocktail Shimmer paper is sooooooooo beautiful with this dark (it doesn't look dark but it is! LOL!) navy! This just shines the LIGHT! It points straight to CHRIST! I love it! 

That's it for me today.
