Modern Stamped & Glazed Backgrounds – I loved creating these unique backgrounds using Altenew’s Arabesque Medallion stamp set.

Garden Treasures and Filled Alpha are the two stamp sets I used to create this little card (it’s a smaller 4 Bar card) following my Perfect Cardmaking Formula.

Altenew’s Simple Flowers stamp set is a must have for simple one layer cards.

Ever since we moved to Arizona I’ve become a huge cacti fan and any stamp set set featuring a Saguaro, like the Be Strong set from Altenew, or any other cactus is a must have in my stash!

December 26, 2017I am also crazy for cactus! I know it’s “trendy” right now, but I think it’s a keeper. I love the desert Southwest and would move there in a skinny minute if my family were there! I am also so appreciating your “perfect formula” card–it really never fails! thank you for this post, and you should know I thank you every time I use your formula!!!
Jackie Price
December 26, 2017All your cards are always such beautiful creations and you always do an amazing job of explaining what you’ve done so we can recreate or create similar projects. You’re a HUGE inspiration to so many of us. I don’t use Pintrest but I posted my favourite card and link from today’s post to my fb. I love those modern stàmped and glazed background cards. Your colour choices fit the images perfectly and the glaze just adds so much interest and dimension. I just LOVE them!!
