2026: Pink & Main Monthly Challenge [Card #210]

Hello, friends! 
I'm joining in the FUN with the Pink & Main Monthly challenge. We were challenged to create something SHINY 🤩 

Well... if you know me... then shiny = FOILING! So I pulled out some P&M foiling goodies and created this card.   
EVERYTHING on this card is foiled- the background panel, the flower panel, the flowers, and the sentiment. The only thing I didn't foil and colored was the light green background behind the flower images. 
 
If you look closely, I layered the flowers... #secret: I messed up and my custom cheerfoil cuts moved so I had to redo the flowers:) LOL I think it turned out great in the end! 
 
I looooooooooooove the colors and this design! And it's sooooooooooooo shiny in person- be sure to stop by my IG for a quick reel of how this shines in the light (I'll be posting it later today!)!!!! 
 
That's it for me today. I hope you will join in the fun with the P&M Monthly challenge!!!

2026: 20 Years- I've Come PAR [Card #162]

Hello, everyone! 
I've got 2 truths and a lie for this card today:
  1. TapeRunner adhesive made this card EASY to make ✅ I LOVE my TR adhesive! I use it for EVERY project!!!!
  2. I LOVE to make custom foiling pieces using my Pink & Main Mini Minc and Cheerfoil (I actually used some leftover foiling from another custom golf card I created for Trav earlier this year!) ✅ I guess that’s another truth- I LOVE using scraps or making twofer cards ✅
  3. I started playing golf this year ❌
Ok- that last one is a lie… I’m Trav’s caddie! It only took me 20 years to get interested in golf 😉

We celebrated 20 years of engagement last week [Trav proposed on June 14, 2006- it’s a fun story! Someday day I will share it.]. I’ve had this card planned for awhile, but I was too ill to create it last week. Better late than never… and I guess that goes with me liking golf too😊

2026: AGAIN!?!? Another Pet Sympathy Card [Card #158]

Hello!!! 
(sigh) Again... I had to make another pet sympathy card last week. 

My younger brother's dog, Lacy, (same age as my older brother's dog that passed last month- 14 years) passed a week or so ago. She wasn't doing very good, had lots of tumors and lumps. Even though her health was bad, she was a happy little pup! She was a good, good dog! She will be missed❤️
That's it for me today. I really hope I don't have to make ANY MORE of these cards- they are so hard to make!!!

2026: TapeRunner With Pink & Main Foil [Card #142]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
#SAVfact (I think this is true... I will have to keep an eye on this to make sure! LOL!): I believe I match my TapeRunner adhesive to my projects😂

Here's a TapeRunner adhesive fact: this adhesive holds strong with just about ANY paper or cardstock! I've used all the different TapeRunner adhesive on the following: 
  • regular paper
  • regular cardstock
  • patterned paper
  • embossed paper
  • EVO synthetic paper
  • vellum
  • tissue paper
  • and NOW.... foiled paper
I love my TapeRunner adhesive! I use it on ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL of my projects! And I'm not worried about it failing to hold strong!!! What I am worried about is that I need to get more because I'm running out- I have FOMO on my FAV adhesive! LOL!
Back to my project... This card was super easy to make! Follow these EASY steps to recreate this card: 
  1. Use Pink & Main Mini Minc and cheerfoil to create background- my FAV backgrounds are the Prism designs!  
  2. Use TR adhesive to attach foiled background to cardbase
  3. Stamp sentiment on strip of paper and attach to cardbase on the diagonal using TR adhesive 
  4. Stamp and color images, add glitter for extra glam
  5. Add TR adhesive to the center of the images and attach to cardbase; *optional- add a foam dot to each side of dragonfly wings to make it pop 
  6. Finish with a few embellishments

You can see the dimension I created by adhering the CENTER of the bodies using TR adhesive and then adding a foam dot for extra height! 

EASY!

**Don't forget to SAVE by entering SAVANNAH10 at checkout on TaperRunner.com🤑 
 
That's it for me today. I hope that you will try some TR adhesive on ALL of your projects and on EVERY paper that you own! Let me know how strong the hold is- I know you won't be disappointed!

2026: Another Butterfly Card [Card #103]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I have ANOTHER card for the Simon Says IG Challenge (things with wings)--- this time I went with a large foiled butterfly design! 
I really wanted the have just the P&M Sketched Butterfly Foilable Panel as the background (because look at it!!!! It's soooooooooo beautiful by itself!)... so I colored just a strip of light blue behind the large foiled and colored butterfly... but it didn't look right. So I went with a few strips of cardstock/washi tape and fussy cut the butterfly... added some confetti... and WOW! This is a beautiful card!!! 
That's it for me today.

2026: 2 Challenges - 1 Card + A How-To [Card #102]

Hello, sweet friends! 
I'm back to share a card that I created for 2 different challenges- the Pink & Main Monthly challenge (cute critters) and the Simon Says Stamp IG challenge (things with wings). Plus, I'm sharing an EASY how-to for foiling specific details or images with the NEW P&M Foil It! Paint & Splatter product! 
The NEW P&M Foil It! Paint & Splatter is a great product to use to create a custom foiled design (I've used it on two other cards HERE). 
 
Here is how you use it: 

  1. Use a thin, small brush to apply the liquid to your project/image-- I make sure there is a small glob for great results! **You can see in the photo below that I applied a tiny amount to the strawberry seeds! 
  2. Let dry!!! This is important! Allow this liquid to dry completely or your foiled design will smear and run, causing the foil to go to places you didn't want it to be! 
  3. Apply foil (apply small pressure or rub to make sure it sticks to the liquid) and run through your P&M Mini Minc machine

EASY! And look at the results!!! It's so fun to use! 

That's it for me today.

2026: Pink & Main Foilable Panels + Alcohol Inks [card #074]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
This card was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy to make especially when using the Pink & Main Foilable Panels and Cheerfoil! 

Here's how I made it: 
  1. Foil the P&M Raindrops Foiloable Panels with White Cheerfoil
  2. Use alcohol inks to create "rainbow" or colored background
  3. After inks dry a bit (maybe 5 mins), wipe background with towel to reveal white rain drops
  4. Finish card with sentiment and colored image

EASY! That's what I like:)  

That's it for me today.

2026: TapeRunner Retractable Adhesive + Foiled Birthday Card [card #075]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
 
💸 Don't forget to use code SAVANNAH10 for 10% off at TapeRunner!!!!!
This SHINY birthday card was SOOOOOOOOOOOO easy to make! But, first, let me share the backstory... 
 
Backstory: The other day I stayed with my friend's mom for some time so that she could run some errands. My friend requested that I bring over some cardmaking supplies so she and her mom could make a birthday card for her brother. Since they were new to cardmaking, I brought my Pink & Main foiling supplies- foiling is the EASIEST way to make cards:) Well, my friend, Renee, made a card... and of course I didn't throw away ANY of the scraps because I wanted to use them to make a similar birthday card. And that's how I came up with this card design- from scraps;)  
 
Here's a photo of my friend Renee with her card. It's CAS and perfect! **And doesn't her NEW hair style look gooooood!!?! 
**Be sure to stop by my IG feed and stories later today/tomorrow to see a quick video of Renee's Mom, Betty, doing a reveal of another foiled image!
 
Here's a quick tutorial on how I made my card using TapeRunner retractable adhesive: 
**I'm an OVERadhesive-er!!! And it's easy with this TR retractable adhesive because it glides sooooooooo smooth! 
It's that easy- 6 steps to make a SHINY birthday card! I love it! And I looooooooooooooove using scraps on my cards!!! 
That's it for me today. I'll be sharing MORE on my IG feed so be sure to stop by there!!!

2026: Pink & Main March 2026 release

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm sharing the NEWEST Pink & Main goodies today---it's all about BIRTHDAY celebrations (and a few other things 😉)
I've got a tutorial showing how I used this TapeRunner adhesive to create those glittered bunnies! You won't believe how easy it was to do it! ***Be on the lookout for this tutorial on IG/FB and HERE👀
This rainbow background was created using a foilable panel and the NEW P&M Twinkle Inks! Here's how I made this background: 
  1. Foil the background panel with Black cheerfoil
  2. Cut the background into six different pieces
  3.  Use Twinkle Inks to color each piece
  4. Adhere back together  
EASY!
Check out the SHINE on this card! I loooooooooove the CAS design but the POW of the multiple foils! So fun! 
These gummy bears are a colored foilable panel, and I used the P&M Opal Transparency cheerfoil on them to make them into SOUR GUMMIES!!!! Well... I didn't think of that- Trav did! LOL! I put them in the Fish Bag die to make it look like they are in a baggie. I love how this card turned out:) 
MORE purple! I love the colored background with that P&M foiled gummy bear panel! Simple but FABULOUS! 
This card was not the original idea- you will have to check out my IG Stories for that photo! LOL! I love how it turned out though! 
 
I wish you could see the shimmer of the ETC. Paper EVO papers with the P&M Magical glitter! This card looks CAS but it packs the WOWZA!!!!  
 
I looooooooooooove this release because it's so fun! I have even MORE ideas that I need to create before the months up! LOL

That's it for me today.
