Happy Friday, folks!! What a week! I cannot believe that it has gone so fast! I am here with my projects from this week, and a new one to share with you. Here is a recap: This was a mini album tutorial from my very first post. A reflective layout for me. This was shared on […]
Hello friends, On a recent shopping trip to my local dollar shop, I found a plain canvas bag in the craft isle. The idea popped into my head that I could decorate it with my stencils and fabric paint and use it to wrap a gift for an upcoming retreat. I used a make-up sponge […]
Hello everyone, Welcome to another card share here on the SN blog. Today I’m sharing a card with some watercoloring using Distress markers.

Happy Easter! I’m in the mood for some Spring weather and I’m so done with Winter I browsed through some floral papers as a crafter does who’s looking for some spring inspiration. It’s kinda funny but all the florals I have are from Crate Paper. I wanted my main image to be a butterfly […]
Hello Scrapbook Nerds, Lindy’s Stamp Gang products are very popular in the mixed media world & with other paper crafters/scrapbookers.

Hi Everyone! I’m excited to share my project with you today. I’m showing you how I made my own background paper to make a series of mixed media cards.

I love making layered tags to add to presents and cards. They are super easy to make. First gather up supplies, you will need tags, embellishments, ribbon, die cuts, really anything you can use for layering. Start with the largest tag as your bottom layer and gradually add more layers as you go. I used […]
Have you ever thought about starting an art journal? It’s a really great way to try things out before adding new techniques to layouts, canvases or other projects. I consider it a testing ground, a place I create in that has no rules, no mistakes and often no plan of what I will create. I […]
