A Halloween Pinwheel Tower Card

November 3, 2021 by Robin

Aloha, all! Oops! This was supposed to go live two weeks ago!

Finally I'm getting to show you some Pinwheel Tower Cards. For Halloween this year, I've made two of them, each a different size. This is the one I'm calling the "Short Pinwheel … [Read more...] about A Halloween Pinwheel Tower Card

A Fun New Pinwheel Tower Card

October 12, 2021 by Robin

It had not four but SIX sides to it! I could hardly wait to try it out. So today we'll go over what I learned … [Read more...] about A Fun New Pinwheel Tower Card

Hey Birthday Chick!

October 7, 2021 by Robin

Aloha, all! Last month I had two special birthday cards to make. Today I'd like to share the card that I made for my now 13-year old grandson. I think that teenage boys are just the hardest group of people in the world for whom to figure out a card design. But this young man lives in a household that has had many chickens over the years. I'll share one of the stories I remember from many years … [Read more...] about Hey Birthday Chick!

In my last article I described how I made my first Halloween Pinwheel Tower Card. I'm not getting into so much detail this time. But I do want to show you another version of this fun fold technique. An Invitation (A2) … [Read more...] about This Halloween Pinwheel Tower Card is Taller!

It’s Time for Halloween Cards!

September 22, 2021 by Robin

Aloha, all! Where has September gone???? Well, to begin, I spent several days on the island of Maui crafting with my friend, Cheryl Hamilton's, demonstrator team.

A Little Something To Cool You Off!

June 28, 2021 by Robin

Aloha, all! I originally made this card to feature it in a "Christmas in July" post. But after I've been reading all about the triple-digit temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, I decided today was a great time to bring on a little something cool. I hope my son and grandson, both of whom live in the greater Portland/Vancouver (Washington) area, are cool on days like today. A  Returning Oldie  … [Read more...] about A Little Something To Cool You Off!

Happy Easter, Happy Spring!

March 26, 2021 by Robin

Easter is a great occasion for sending cards to friends and family. It's also a time of the year when I really and truly switch from the darker colors of the fall and winter holidays to the light and cheery colors of Spring.
