We made this little gift bag (one of my favorites!!) at my “Anything But a Card” Class. The bag goes together quickly and only needs two pieces of 6″ x 6″ paper (plus decoration). I’ve made these in the past – a couple of years ago I made a Valentine-themed bag. Here’s the tutorial for…
Last Friday, I had my first session of the “Anything But a Card Class.” One of our projects was this easy and quick scrapbook layout. A lot of us are dipping our toes into the scrapbook water so I thought a pretty (but simple) layout was in order. I started with a 12″ x 12″…
If you want a great outdoor scene, the Scenic Adventures bundle should be on your list. Either portrait or landscape, these stamps and dies will help you create the perfect card. I started with a card base of Mossy Meadow cut at 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″. I used a Cloud…
I also received the Peaceful View stamp set at OnStage in March – it’s really quite beautiful: It’s a large background stamp. I decided to pair it up with some blending of colors to create a sunset. I also used the Wonderful Thoughts bundle for my sentiment. The card base is Night of Navy cut…
Here is a card we made at my last Stamp Class – it uses the new Layered Thoughts Photopolymer Stamp Set. Isn’t it a cutie? It’s a great stamp set to mix and match with to get the sentiments you need. I used the new (and returning) InColor, Strawberry Slush, for my card base. I…
Here is Sketch #25 to start your crafty Thursday (do you have a crafty Thursday – or is it just plain Thursday?) A portrait card base with one panel askew, one centered, and then a sentiment strip. Here is a quick (and I mean under 3 minute) card I put together using this sketch: I…
Go check the Online Store with the Everyday Arches Dies – I used them to make this card (along with the Arched Wishes stamp set). They are awesome! So awesome they keep going in and out of stock so be sure to get your hands on these. This was a fun card to put together…
Today’s the day the new Annual Catalog from Stampin’ Up! goes live – and here is one of the awesome product collections that we go to have a sneak peek of at OnStage this past March. Take a look at all the beautifulness (is that a word?): The paper is absolutely gorgeous and the colors…
Here is a quick sketch for you to get crafting with! Some circles and banners are all you need. I made this sample using a card base from the April Paper Pumpkin kit and the Around it All Dies: What can you make with this sketch? Share your creations with me – I would love…
One more project with the On the Go Suite Collection. As I was cleaning up from last week’s projects, I saw the below piece of Designer Series Paper and said, “Jen, make a scrap book layout!” Is that perfect for layout journaling? I whipped the page together by trimming a larger piece of paper and…
