I have a catalog CASE to share with you today, this time with the Bloom Where You’re Planted Suite. You’ll see the original on page 80 of the 2021 Annual Catalog. I started by embossing a 5-1/4″x 4″ piece of Soft Succulent Cardstock with the Macramé Embossing Folder. I cut…
I have two very simple cards to share with you today. Both cards show off the new designer paper called Bloom Where You’re Planted. I love it when the DSP is in the “driver’s seat” on a card because it becomes a quick assembly and yet such a pretty card!…
Soft, calming, pretty. That’s how I would describe this Peony Garden Thank You card. This Peony Garden Designer Series Paper is all of that. I paired the Basic Gray Prints with Blushing Bride. Even the name of the stamp set fits the description — So Sentimental! Measurements: Basic Gray Cardstock…
What a sweet way to say “Thank you!” Make my Sweet Strawberry thank you card using this amazing Sale-a-Bration DSP called Berry Delightful. You can get it free along with the Berry Blessings Stamp Set with any purchase of $100 or more. See another sample of this paper here. The…
I think the world needs more of you. Yes, you! You are kind, compassionate, helpful, caring, generous. You know I’m talking about you. And I appreciate you so much! This card is for you ~ I made this clean and relatively simple card with World of Good Specialty Designer Series…
Here’s a little trio of thank you notes that I put together last night. I used Trimming the Town paper and an older retired set that was one of my favorites, Nothing Sweeter. You know I’m an advocate of using your older sets, and as much as I’d love to…
Thank you cards are a must, in my opinion! They can be from the very simple to the sublime, but it is so important to let that person know that you received their thoughtful gift, service, or kindness. Today I have a thank you card to share that came together…
Welcome to our final CASEing Coast to Coast for 2020! This month I sent this design from California all the way to Pennsylvania for Rosanne to CASE. Pretty amazing how far these cards travel, yes? Haha! Gotta love the internet! 🙂 Simple yet so pretty I went with a super…
Happy Wednesday to you! Today I’m taking a rare departure (partially) from Stampin’ Up! to create an autumn mosaic for GDP #261. It’s a color challenge with Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, and Mint Macaron. I thought it would be fun to paper piece this Gentle Leaf Collage by Poppystamps. Here is…
We had such a good time up at Donner Lake this week! I made a sunflower thank you card for the couple that invited us to join them for a brief vacation. They took their kayaks and stand-up paddleboards. We all took our golf clubs. We played on the lake,…
Happy Monday to you! Here’s one of my favorite color combinations in the 6″x 6″ Flowers For Every Season DSP pack – blue, blue, blue…and white! 🙂 I think these shades of blue are so classic and so pretty together. Since the card is rather mono-chromatic, I added a lot…
Pineapple Punch may have retired last month, but it’s still on my shelf! And when I saw how beautifully it matches this green sheet of Artistry Blooms, I got very excited! So this artistry blooms in greens (and yellow)! Details: Pineapple Punch Cardstock (retired), 8-1/2″x 5-1/2″, scored and folded at…
I think everyone can agree, what the world needs now… is a little kindness. World of Good Specialty Designer Series Paper is a beautiful assortment of prints that resemble old world maps. The specialty part of it is Brass Foil accents. This Brass Foil is so shiny, it’s like looking…
Introducing Magenta Madness! We have a new In Color that is, ummm…shall I say bright?! It’s called Magenta Madness and I love it! It is not your mama’s baby pink. Did I tell ya? 😎 This card design is in response to a card challenge over at CAS. It’s their…
This week’s TGIF Challenge was to make a card with a Belly Band. I took out my new stamp set and made an Ornate Style Gate Fold card! Here’s the banner for the challenge: and here’s the stamp set that got me started: I took the large flower image and…
