Last week I created a birthday gift tag with a dancing chicken. I loved how bright and cheerful it was, but it did involve quite a bit of work. So for this week's simple Sunday project I wanted to pare it right back. Today's project is a "Just for you" tag with a winter theme, using a couple of label punches to create the tag base. LABEL TAG Instead of making a rectangular tag using one of Stampin' Tag Topper Punches I thought I'd see what other punches I could use. It was then I ... VIEW POST
Ornate Layers For A Decorated Journal
Usually when I design a decorative cover for a notebook I tend to keep them fairly flat. This is because raised layers or embellishments can get damaged when the notebook's in my bag.

So with that in mind I created this project featuring the Nature's Harvest Stamp Set and coordinating Harvest ... VIEW POST
Lavender From Nature’s Harvest Dies
Well today's project came as a total surprise to me. When I first saw the Nature's Harvest Dies I could have sworn there was a wheat die. However this time after I used the die I saw something completely different. Lavender! So I changed my plans and created this card with a scented bonus.
