This Sunday I’m featuring a Spotlight Technique with Welcoming Woods stamp set. Sometimes you make cards with no specific occasion or person in mind. The Welcoming Woods stamp lent itself to making this long thin card which will fit in a DL envelope. It also lent itself to practicing the hinge-stamp method on the Stamparatus. […]
Five backgrounds with Textures & Frames

I love how seamlessly the colours merge into one another. The trees were stamped in Early Espresso, and looking skywards, I used Crushed Curry and […]
