New Spring Home Card

Don’t you love spring? With nature – sometimes tentatively – stretching all of its green arms out to the sun, and the first flowers showing us this year’s latest Spring Colors (yes they’re the same as last year’s Spring Collection, but then again, that was gorgeous and absolutely worth the annual re-runs! 🙂 ).

So I was very happy to create this super springy New Home card, using the 2014 colorful spring collection by Webster’s Pages, called Nest. Which I also used to create my Springtime Dreams Keepsake Album, so if you’d like to see more of this collection go check out that album!

I also used some vellum on the inside of this card, for some added interest, using the same technique as I did with the aforementioned Springtime Dreams project.

So let me know what you think!

Free Tutorial: Vellum Card in Black & White

Today I’m happy to share a tutorial with you all, of a sophisticated birthday card designed for a man. It’ll be great fun to make for all of you who, like me, don’t like to use any fluff when creating something for a guy. I always like to keep it clean and stylishly simple, and this time I’ve created the cleanest and simplest one yet of all of my projects for guys. 🙂

You can watch the show & tell video to see every detail of the card, so enjoy and have fun creating!

Springtime Dreams Keepsake Album Deluxe

When I first created my Butterflies & Stars Keepsake Album Deluxe back in the fall of 2013, I had no idea it would become quite the scrapbooking hit on Youtube – as per today, it has gotten nearly 460,000 views and the number is still growing! Wow!

Unfortunately I have no explanation for this, since I have not been able to repeat these results… Its sister albums Flora & Fauna, Fairytale Treasures and Country Garden all had their shares of views, and so did my other projects, but none of them ever came anywhere near that unique number. I guess Youtube moves in mysterious ways… Oh well…

Anyway, I received (and am still receiving) a lot of requests for a tutorial on this type of album, this ‘double-spined’ gatefold-like type of album that I’ve dubbed Keepsake Album Deluxe.

And I have some great news for all of those lovely people: I’ve now been able to create this tutorial, and it is huge! It sports 132 pages with 418 pictures!
And it’s available to you now as a digital download in my Etsy shop.

To write a tutorial I of course had to create the project, for I had to take pictures of every step of the process. So here’s the latest edition of my Keepsake Album Deluxe, created using Webster’s Pages’ Nest collection, and I’m calling it Springtime Dreams. 🙂

Enjoy the video and let me know what you think!
