Thanks for Being There
It's Monday, and that means it's time for another Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, where I'm in the designer spotlight this month! This week, the theme is Thanks/Thanksgiving.

A Birthday Throwback
I was thinking of writing about the latest birthday card that I made for my sister, when I realized I still haven't talked about the previous one! It's been in my scans since forever, and I don't ever seem to process and publish it. So here I am finally, with a much-delayed post. 🙂 I… Continue reading A Birthday Throwback
Success / Failure
Here's a recent art journal page of mine - This page had some remnants of previous gel plate play--there were metallic acrylics that had been printed through a stencil, as well as regular acrylics with texture from a corrugated cardboard piece. (I'm trying to use up and finish the blue in my acrylic stash since… Continue reading Success / Failure

100 Days of ATCs (2023) – 1
So I'm doing The 100 Day Project this year. The last time I tried this was in 2019 when I was just getting into art journaling, and doing a 100 days of it helped a lot. This time, I'm making ATCs (Artist Trading Cards.) I've always liked ATCs but I haven't spent much time on… Continue reading 100 Days of ATCs (2023) – 1
