Are you a Grandma, Nana, Nan, Gran, or Gan Gan?

Happy Sunday!   When school breaks up, usually that’s the time when grandchildren come to visit, but there are no Grandmas in our house, I am called by another name!  Whatever the tradition in your house, generations of grandparents have their grandparent status passed down through the ages according to their tradition or ethnicity.

Stunning Mosaic Mood Specialty DSP cards

Happy Sunday! Remember all the birds and flowers I cut from the Mood Mosaic Specialty Designer Papers that I showed in my last video on Friday?  I had fun making up some more cards just by using the cut images from them. I used the thick Very Vanilla card stock for my card bases and […]
