I’m entering the Tic, Tac, Toe Challenge this week with a cheerful wreath-clad window! Here is the challenge board ~ I went with the middle, horizontal row: Design Paper, Scoring, and Wreath. Stampin’ Up! is gearing up for the new Annual Catalog, beginning May 2, 2023. Whenever a new catalog…
Beginning next week, on Wednesday, March 1st, Stampin’ Up! is bringing out a brand new line of Online Exclusive products!

We’re back with another Thursday sketch challenge at Create With Connie & Mary! This is a great sketch that will lend itself to many different ideas. I chose this sweet Designer Series Paper that just makes me smile 🙂 Well, Hello, Happy Forest Friends! Isn’t it cute? This would make…
It’s a Sketch Challenge for CASEing Coast to Coast this month! Rosanne Mulhern from Pennsylvania and I, a California girl, collaborate once a month in our blogs to bring you a couple of different takes on similar designs. This month was Rosanne’s turn to pick a theme or card to…
While on the islands in Greece, we saw lots of cats! Mostly feral, I think, but they were pretty tame – or just used to tourists handing them snacks! You cannot sit and enjoy a fish meal without a little buddy sitting at your feet in anticipation of a handout. The…
I don’t know if the flowers in this Perfectly Penciled Designer Series Paper are poppies, but they look a bit like them, so I’m going with it and pairing it with Poppy Moments Dies! This beautiful red poppy is actually two colors, but they are very similar so you might…
Wow, May already!!! I’m always surprised by how fast time goes by. When this goes to publishing, I’ll be exploring Greece! But thanks to technology, these weekly posts should come off without a hitch (fingers crossed!) My friend and I have been planning this trip since before Covid, and have…
Is it a card? Is it an envelope? Well, actually it’s a card to look like an envelope! I’m using the Sale-a-bration double item, Friendly Hello Stamp Set + Designer Series Paper to decorate my “envelope” card. Isn’t this a fun design? Basic Borders Dies provided the “envelope” flap. I…
Pick a daffodil from the garden! I used the Sale-a-bration designer paper, Daffodil Afternoon, for the background on this happy Spring card. You can get this paper FREE with a purchase of any current Stampin’ Up! products of $50 or more. It’s a full pack of DSP, 12 sheets of…
Is there anything happier than tulips? They really are the epitome of Spring. And this new Designer Series Paper called Flowering Fields is bright and cheerful and very happy! It’s one of the papers in my Product Share. If you haven’t signed up for one yet, read about my Shares…

Hello friend! I thought I’d take a break from Christmas cards, tags, & bags (my dining room looks like Santa’s workshop!) and make a card for a friend who could use a bit of encouragement. I think this beautiful Designer Series Paper from the Ever Eden collection will lift her…
I had a whim to do some coloring, and one of my favorite images to color is this little girl by My Favorite Things. She is swinging by with a “Hi” among the fall trees from Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper. The DSP is layered on a piece…
I love the Welcoming Window paired with Plentiful Plants bundles. They go together beautifully! You may remember this card that I made last month using the same two bundles. This was one of the three cards I had the ladies make in my card class this month. The sunny yellow…
