I’m a member of the Lawn Fawn Addicts Birthday Card Exchange group on Facebook. With hundreds of members, there are a LOT of birthdays each month! I was totally freaked out at the idea of having to make 30+ cards each month until I realized I don’t need to make cards for every member eachRead More

Brainless Bear
This brainless bear and his not-exactly-brilliant pig pal felt like the perfect way to bring innocence, cuteness, and snark all together seamlessly! Featuring Kindred Stamps’ Childhood Friends and Ink Road’s F*ck-A-Doodle-Do sets, this card makes me smile every time! Check out a sweeter card featuring another Childhood Friend in myRead More

Follow Your Dreams, Princess!
A friend of mine recently moved out of her previous accommodations. For the first time in her life, she is living her on life. This friend has always felt close with the character pictured here, especially since the musical was released. So when she escaped her own tower, I wanted to help commemorate the event!Read More

Ew, David! Where’s the Diversity?
It feels like such a small thing, but we need to color our stamped people in a variety of skin tones. Not just because other, non-white skin tones are beautiful, but because we want Crafters of Color to know that there is acceptance and welcome in this community.Read More

Valentines for Gamers
My husband and I aren’t big celebrators of arbitrary holidays. Valentine’s Day is especially low on our list. Now that I make cards, however, I have a lot more fun celebrating whatever occasions come up! All the V-Day cards I’d seen around Facebook and Instagram were all pinks, super cutesy, and just not really us.Read More

Recently, I was reminded that my patterned paper stash was both large and collecting dust. After flipping through my stash, I found aRead More

Fuck Yeah!
When I got the Wavy Stripes stencil by Taylored Expressions, all I wanted to do was ink blend all day long! That’s basically what I did, honestly. I ended up with a butt-ton of cute backgrounds and literally zero ideas for what to do with them. Onto the shelf they went! And then Ink RoadRead More

Always There for You
Recently, I acquired Kindred Stamps’ Childhood Friends stamp set. I’d had my eyes on it for a while, so I jumped at the opportunity to own it when it was made available! Upon receipt of the set, I promptly stamped out 4 sheets containing each of the characters, and spent the next week and aRead More

Birthday in Grey
I had a lot of fun with Taylored Expressions’ Gifted stencil and background stamp. These products are designed to work together perfectly, and they definitely did the trick! Every now and then, you get the chance to bulk create cards that you really like. I rocked the stencil for 4 matching backgrounds by ink blendingRead More

Cards for Colleagues
As the resident card maker at my school, it often comes down to me when there’s a birthday, illness, or someone leaves for a new job. This first card is for a colleague who was doing just that – abandoning us! As a coffee mug hoarder, it was easy to pull out Ink Road’s MugRead More
