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…
This week’s holiday project comes in the form of a Mini Pizza Box! I love these little boxes for gift card sets. You can easily fit six mini 3″x 3″ cards and envelopes into one box. Today it’s all about glam ~ beautiful gold, white, and shine. I found this…
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…
Sometimes the simplest designs please me the most. And here is a card that you can see is a very simple design, but I am nutso over it! I love the colors ~ Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape. The Bokeh Dots stamp was one I hadn’t tried yet. Once I…
One week from today, you can begin ordering from the Stampin’ Up! 2018 Holiday Catalog, which is super exciting! But today I have a card that I made using products from the Holidays section in the Annual Catalog. On page 95, you will find this stamp set, called Mistletoe Season.…
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…
I have a very sparkly birthday present card today ~ The photo doesn’t give the glitter justice. When the light hits it, it really dazzles! I mixed new with older products to pull this card together. To begin with, I cut four 7/8″ x 5-1/4″ strips of Whisper White cardstock,…
I have some get well cards to share with you today. I never have enough of these on hand, so I made a few different ones to keep in my stash, using the stamp set called Healing Hugs. The flowers and leaves are Stampin’ Up!’s DistINKtive® stamps which are cut…
My August Stamping Habit Craft Kits To Go were a big hit, and I’m ready to take orders for the September Kit! I’m getting a little bit earlier start on this one, so I can get them in the mail to you sooner. I will take orders from today through…
I had some time to rethink and redo my card from Friday’s post. If you missed that one, you can view it here. The changes are subtle, but I’m happier with the end result! And that’s all the matters, right? This time I doubled up the Vellum. I like that…
This card is a work in progress. I feel that it needs some tweaking. But it is glued down for now, so I will work on it and show you the before-and-after next week! This pretty (with a punch of color!) poinsettia paper from Under The Mistletoe Designer Series Paper…
I’ve been playing with one of my new sets from the 2018 Holiday Catalog called Wishing You Well… On my first walk through the new catalog, I stopped at page 35 and knew this set was coming to Calypte Lane. That bow! This is a DistINKtive Stamp, which means the…
I used Garden Impressions to create a “window” or “quilt square” card to share today ~ I wasn’t quite sure what to call this card. Is it a window? Maybe a quilt square? Or is it a puzzle? I took a 2-1/4″ square of Garden Impressions and cut it into…
I received this handmade Thank You card from a sweet young friend of mine that I just had to share ~ Sienna is my daughter-in-law’s 12 year-old niece. She has been interested in card-making for a while now, and I think her efforts are remarkable! She has layers and dimension,…
Happy Friday to all! I have a card to share with you that I CASEd…from myself! I wonder if you think it looks familiar? About a month ago, I posted this card that I made using Soft Suede and Nature’s Poem DSP ~ You can revisit that post by clicking…
