Last week I used the Butterfly in the Butterflies and Flowers Layering Decorative Masks set (check it out here) – this week, I wanted to try the flowers. I’ve been checking out all of the wonderful samples from other demonstrators and decided to give it a go. I will be honest, these flowers were a…

Until Stampin’ Up! came out with their Blending Brushes, I will admit that I never really picked up the decorative mask products. Though I can say I’m proficient with daubers, I’m also pretty clumsy with them – blending brushes make it so easy to create great images. I made this thank you card using the…

I got my Light the Candles card kit in – and what a breeze to quickly make 8 birthday cards (two each of the designs above). It’s hard to make out in the picture but there is a great dimension to these cards and some extra birthday sparkle. I originally posted about these here and…

I have a friend that loves to request cards from me for his wife. Honestly, his memory impresses me – I have a whole craft room of supplies that I am always playing in and I’m often in there the night before an occasion creating a card because…I forgot….). For this year’s Valentine card, I…

I think my favorite part of the Sweet Talk suite collection is the Designer Series Paper – it has traditional ‘Valentine’s’ colors AND fun pops of other colors you wouldn’t expect. I made the DSP the focal point of this card. To start, I scored a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Thick Basic…
Stampin’ Up! will be releasing a new product collection – the All Together collection. It consists of a stamp set, coordinating dies, a 6″ x 6″ pack of Designer Series Paper, and skin tone Stampin’ Blends. I’ve included the images of the products below. I love the Stampin’ Blends in the new colors – and…
Stampin’ Up! has refreshed their Clearance Rack and announced their “Last Chance” list (items from the July-December Mini Catalog that will not be carrying over into the new Annual catalog). Here are a few of my favorite offerings from the Clearance Rack (you can click on the Clearance Rack image below to see everything on…
Let’s take it nice and easy for this Friday! A layer of DSP and a layer of cardstock and a snowflake cut in half – your card is done. I used some of the retired Sale-A-Bration paper for this card, but any Real Red containing DSP will do – I’ve included some examples available in…
Something I almost always overlook in Stampin’ Up! catalogs are the Memories & More card packs. Why? I don’t scrapbook and for some reason, I have it stuck in my head that you can only use the contents for making scrapbook pages. Well, I’m here to tell you (and hopefully myself) that this simply isn’t…
Where did October go?!?!? I found myself with a very big to-do list this past weekend – a spooky to-do list. I had to make treat holders for co-worker’s children; cards (greeting and the bingo variety) for my oldest son’s class, and the dozen or so cards needed for my family and friends. Fortunately, I…
