Framing has become very popular in the papercrafting/cardmaking industry. I’ve seen it in a few places and thought I’d try it with a jar of flowers. I am very pleased with the results! The frames are easy to make with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits. First I glued a 5-1/4″ x…
Really, with paper this gorgeous, who needs fancy die cuts and embellishments? I am using the Designer Series Paper called Petal Promenade. It took me awhile to warm up to this paper — why? I don’t know– It is gorgeous! I guess it took seeing it in person to really…
Welcome to the Pals’ March Blog Hop. We’re so glad you’re here because ”Spring has Sprung” – at least on our blog hop if not outside! Our Design Team created beautiful projects to inspire you. You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either…
I have a quick Friday post for you. I received the free Painted Seasons bundle along with the purchased coordinating framelits yesterday, and I could not wait to open them and play! This paper makes me so happy ~ the colors are vibrant and rich. I adore it! Here is…
I had this idea… let’s see what you think!.. I thought I would blindly pick an older stamp set (still current, but from the Annual Catalog) and try to pair it with a newer set from the Occasions Catalog. So I closed my eyes, reached into the cupboard, and pulled…
The Festive Friday #24 Challenge is to make a project using Letter Writing and/or Blue. I think I’ve meant both of these challenges with this card, designed with a blank sheet inside for writing a sweet note to my friend! The colors I used on this card are Blueberry Bushel,…
This is the second time I’ve used this stamp set, Amazing Life, this week. I think it’s going to be a favorite! How about a happy card for Friday? This big bold sentiment just jumps off the card after heat embossing and coloring the letters with Stampin’ Write Markers. I…
I opened up a new stamp set that I received at On Stage in November and starting playing with it… It is a really fun set! It will be available to purchase from the 2019 Occasions Catalog on January 3rd. Here is a photo of the cover ~ It has…
Amidst the fervor for Holiday cards, we still need birthday cards, and this past month has busy with birthdays! Here is a card that I created from the beautiful Love What You Do and Share What You Love DSP. I realized that this set had taken a back seat to…
I’m mixing suites in today’s card, with two different packs of Designer Series Paper and an image from a third suite – but don’t they all look beautiful together? The light gray background paper is from Festive Farmhouse and the floral paper is from Frosted Floral. Then there is that…
Today’s card is a CASE (Copy and Share Everything) of my upline and sweet friend, Susan Itell. I have always loved her work, and this card stood out to me as a fun one to try. She made it a year or two ago, so I thought is was good…
I have made a card with leaves that are – let’s say, unconventional – in color! I got my inspiration from a photo that Connie Babbert posted on her Monday blog. Here’s the photo: and here’s my card: What’s your reaction? Do you love it? Do you think I’m a…
I had this idea to try my Bokeh Dots stamp in Fall colors to create leaves. I think they turned out pretty neat…. Starting with regular Whisper White cardstock I used the Bokeh Dots stamp several times, using different autumnal colors. The colors I chose for this card were Cajun…
I dipped into the Frosted Floral Specialty DSP (available Sept. 5) to make this cheerful card with Varied Vases: Happy Monday to you! And Happy September to you! Wow, last month went by fast. We are two days away from the Holiday Catalog launch, when you can order items such…
Happy Monday! I must be on a Coastal Cabana kick. Last week I realized that I hadn’t used even one piece of it since the color refresh, and in just a few days it’s all I’m reaching for! And so here is another… I love using our Blends for…
