I’m back from On Stage Atlanta and holy cow! I had such a fantastic time! I met the greatest people, learned some new awesome techniques, watched well-loved demonstrators do live demos for us, tried out some of the new products, celebrated with Mary Fish as she was named #1 in…
As this post is published, I’ll be in Atlanta attending Brian King and Pam Morris’ WCMD Event on Friday and Stampin’ Up! On Stage on Saturday! I’m so excited to be able to be a part of these events! I’m going to meet new people, reconnect with others I’ve met…
A pretty mix of Emerald Envy, Delightful Dijon, and Basic Black = Moroccan beauty! My card today was inspired by Linda Heller. It shows off two of the beautiful papers in the Moroccan DSP pack. To make this card, cut 2 pieces at 3 3/4″ x 1 1/2.” Cut a…
Here is a very simple layout for you today, one that you can easily do with any paper you choose. I decided to use this Petals & Paisleys Specialty Designer Series Paper, because I just (finally) bought it and I am in love with the colors and prints! The picture…
Shila is the newest member of my team. She brought this card to show me at our last meeting and I wanted to share it with you. Isn’t it pretty? She used the May Flowers Framelits Dies with some of our older DSP and Pool Party cardstock. I think…
I was looking through my box of embellishments and I came across these black spider web doilies from last year. I couldn’t resist using one more! I glued it over one of our current DSP sheets from Halloween Night and added the cute little dangling spider from Spooky Fun Photopolymer…
Don’t you love walking down the street in December and seeing all the beautiful Christmas trees in people’s houses? That was my idea for this card ~ a peek into someone’s holiday decorations! The only things missing here are the presents! I guess this family just put up their tree…
Just a quick post for you this Tuesday morning. I have an easy layout for you to follow today with one big JOYFUL stamp from the Wonderful Year Stamp Set. I chose to keep the embellishments to a minimum on this card, letting the DSP do all the work. It…
I am wild about this stamp set! It is Wild About Flowers and it is mostly a set for retirement cards. Not quite ready for retirement cards? Well, keep the sentiments for a later date but use the beautiful collection of wild flower stamps now! I got my idea…
I “borrowed” (CASEd in stamping lingo) this color palette from Bruno Bertucci. I love the combination of Night of Navy with Tip Top Taupe. It could go very masculine, but my little scallop oval kind of makes it a bit more feminine. Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper is the…
Wow! As neutral as my post was on Monday, this one is packed with color! This birthday card and treat bag have a very tropical feel, which is what the designers of Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper were going for, I’m sure. My card is a simple layout, with…
I thought I’d try a white and silver card today. It turned out super sparkly ~ much more than the camera captured. I love it! But there are some tricks to working with Foil Sheets and Glimmer Paper. I thought you might like to hear what I learned from this…
This is what I call an All-Purpose card. It can be used for many different occasions, anything from birthday to sympathy and everything in between. Kind of bright and flirty ~ I think it would give the recipient a pick-me-up if they needed one! The best part is it’s simple…
Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for October 2016. We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our new 2016 Blog Hop monthly themes. This month our projects feature cards made using “wicked” folds. What is a “wicked” fold? It is anything other than the standard A2…
