Je t' Aime

For this card I wanted to feature the new honeycomb embossing folders I got for the cuttlebug!!!. The La Belle a Vie line from CTMH had this great stamp- Jardin- that had this stunning bee on it! I used some glitter on the wings, and even thought it doesn't show in the picture it sure makes the little bee stand out!

Gift Tag

The January Stamp of the Month from Close to My Heart is a great one for those of use who like to color. The great flower images on the stamp have the perfect amount of shading to make coloring easy. This simple gift tag uses one of the Journaling Tags

Oh la la Birthday

 Girly birthday cards are my favorite to make, and nothing says girly like flowers and Paris!! For this slide out card I used the La Belle a Vie Workshop on the go stamp set. Best part: that Eiffel tower cuts on the cricut using the Artiste cartridge!!

Book Review: The Hidden Heart

The story is set in 1863 in South America, the Pacific and England. Tess Collier has traveled the world with her natural scientist father, the Earl of Morrow. As he is dying in a jungle, she promises him she will sail home to England and marry. Her father’s trustee arranges passage for her on the clipper ship owned by Gryphon Meridon (aka Captain Frost) and hires the man to protect her from inappropriate suitors once they reach England. Gryf has been wronged many times, losing his title, his parents and his wealth to an evil uncle. Though he is “half in love” with Tess, Gryf believes he can never have her as he has nothing to give. Though Tess loves Gryf, through a misunderstanding, she marries another—his twisted cousin.  I enjoyed this book very much! It had it's ups and downs as well as some great adventure.  I liked the characters and the story line. I have read other thing from this author, and she has a way with words.
