Snowboard card

 

I made a special birthday card for my nephew, Porter.  He likes to snowboard so I dug through my retired stash to find the perfect stamp.  I used a new stamp set, Boardwalk Fun, for the sentiment. My favorite Everyday Arches dies were used to create my focal point.

Card recipe -

Paper:  Basic Grey, Basic White, Peaceful Place specialty dsp

Ink:  Memento Black

Stamps: Extreme Snowboard, Boardwalk Fun

Accessories:  Stamp Cut 'n Emboss machine, Everyday Arches dies, adhesive-back hexagons, dimensionals

Year of the Fire Horse

 

Today is Chinese New Year's Day.  It's the Year of the Fire Horse.  Every year I make a special card for my mother.  

Here's what to expect:

While the Lunar New Year always brings celebration, this one carries extra cosmic weight. The Horse returns every 12 years, but the Fire Horse only appears once every 60 years — the last time was 1955 — making 2026 a rare, high-voltage turning point in the Chinese calendar.  

Fire is the most Yang of all five elements, so it’s safe to say that 2026 will not be a quiet year. On the contrary, the Fire Horse brings boldness, speed, passion and momentum. Expect fast-moving developments, courageous choices and life-altering pivots. This is a year that brings you back in motion.

For my card I used:

Stamps - Reason to Celebrate, Unbridled Beauty

Ink - VersaMark

Paper - Brushed Gold, Real Red

Tools - Stamp Cut 'n Emboss machine, Everyday Arches dies, Cane Weave 3D embossing folder, gold emboss powder, heat tool
