Vacationing in Colorado

July 16, 2017

After a forced vacation, no air conditioning a couple of weeks ago, I am vacationing in Colorado. My daughter and her husband live here and it has been 2 years since I was here. It is such beautiful country and their lifestyle though busy, is relaxing for me. I love being in her beautiful home and just love being with my daughter and incredible son-in-law. She is my web designer and she does a great job at listening to me and knowing just want I want for my blog. If you are looking for a blog or web page she will get you started on your blogging process. Just click this link Get Out There Media and it will take you to her information.

I have a card for you today so lets move on to that!

April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives 7-9

By Debbie Chronister • April 29, 2025
My favorite part of my job is creating. It doesn't always come easy but this month's Paper Pumpkin kit contained beautiful Alcohol Ink papers. The papers were so beautiful and the kit included nine card bases which had the design on the front and back of the card. When cutting them apart you were able to create 18 card fronts. I started designing by cutting them apart and then went from there. Throughout the week I will post 3 cards each day for seven days that were all made with April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Inked Occasions

Impressions Abloom & Storybook Garden

By Debbie Chronister • April 15, 2025
All this week I will be posting cards created with products remaining from my recent event. This card was inspired by the card below that I created for that event. I had a focus on creating masculine cards and when I was done with the event I had a set of the undone cards remaining. I had received the New Impressions Abloom which is only available if you are a Demonstrator until May 1, 2025. After that date it will be available to anyone. I used the products that were in the packet to create this card. Of course I added a few extra things. I will give you all the instructions on the page including measurements and products used for both projects
