I have two cards to show you today. These are so fast to put together, and the result is so pretty! I used the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper. Take a look ~ This photo-realistic paper is gorgeous. I finally got the nerve to cut into one of the sheets…
Hi my crafty friends! I have another card that uses some retiring products to show you. Today I’m using the Celebrate You Thinlits Dies, the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper, and the Floral Embossing Folder. To see a former card on which I used Celebrate You Thinlits Dies, click HERE.…
Perhaps you’ve heard that the Stampin’ Up! Retiring List for 2019 is out. I’ll have that list posted for you down below. And perhaps you love your circle punches as much as I do…sadly some of these are on the Retiring List! The 3/4″, the 1-1/4″, and the 1-3/4″ Circle…
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…
I have “rediscovered” Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper. You know how you use something for a while, move on to new products and forget the old? Then one day, you’re thumbing through your stash collection and fall in love with something you haven’t even looked at for a few months.…
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…
Whew, a long title for such a small card! I’m combining Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper and Bouquet Blooms Stamp Set in a 3″ x 3″ gift card today ~ This is my second post for today. My first one gives you the info on my new Stamping Habit Craft…
Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I’m starting off the week with a birthday card that I made for my friend whose birthday is today ~ Happy Birthday Shary! I used Varied Vases with Nature’s Poem DSP: I am down to my last few bits of…
As I was preparing my card for the Pal’s Blog Hop on Wednesday, I was thinking I might show off another of the Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper, which started me on a process of card-building and re-building. I made my card and it just wasn’t what I had been…
Welcome to the Pals July, 2018 Blog Hop. We’re having a “Pattern Party”. This month our creations will feature our favorite Designer Series Papers and coordinating embellishments from the new annual catalog from Stampin’ Up! You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either…
I learned this fun new “round ‘n round” technique from Linda Heller, and couldn’t wait to try it out! I cased her circle piece and added it to my own color blocking design. Here’s my card ~ This technique uses the Stamparatus. If you don’t have one yet, I encourage…
I have another Varied Vases card for you today with one of my favorite colors, Bermuda Bay. I want to credit Chris Smith for this vase arrangement. I changed it just a little, by putting the vases on a shelf and by using Blends to color them rather than Watercolor…
Can you say, SWEET? Sweet Sugarplum is about to retire, and I have enjoyed working with this color! I love how it pairs with Rich Razzleberry, and in this Tutti-Frutti DSP it is sprinkled in with several colors. Using a Whisper White Note Card & Envelope, I started with a…
