Summer is in full-force - is there a more perfect time to stay inside and make Fall-themed cards?! I love the warm colors of Autumn, so I was immediately drawn to the page of acorns and leaves in one of the pages of Rings of Love Designer Series Paper. Here's

I'm in love with Stampin' Up!'s Full of Life 6' x 6' Designer Series Paper. The vibrant, watercolored pages are filled to the brim with gorgeous colors that showcase the full spectrum of Stampin' Up!'s incredible colors. Here's a look at the designs and colors included in this pack of
Sometimes I get it wrong. The cute animals and brights papers in the Rain or Shine Suite were not on 'my A list' of products from Stampin' Up!'s January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. There wasn't anything I disliked about the cute characters and seasonal patterns in the coordinating papers, but I
What an amazing week of projects at the Global Design Project last week! Y'all really showed up with some beautiful work. Thank you to all of those who participated - and a special thank you to all of those who CASEd my project. I loved every one of them! This
We are a week away from the customer launch of Stampin' Up!'s July-December 2021 Mini Catalog - along with a two-month Sale-a-Bration, the 'Holiday Mini' launches next Tuesday. As such, you've seen a lot of exciting, new products from Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas over the past few weeks. I'm stepping

Brace yourself...there's something about my card that you don't see too often. If you follow me, then you know how much I love Stampin' Up!'s ribbons (I'm excited to share ribbon with you when I host product shares, and I love how the ribbons and other accessories perfectly coordinate with
When Stampin' Up! loaded some past favorites into the Clearance Rack, I about jumped out of my seat. I love to see the availability of past products at amazing prices - and these limited-time sales items are the best! They are only available while products last, so I hope you'll
Stampin' Up!'s August-September Sale-a-Bration is wrapping up next week, so I'm offering up a lot of Sale-a-Bration projects this week. Today I'm sharing one of the Level 2 Items that can be selected with a $100 order (before shipping and taxes) - the Delicate Dahlias photopolymer stamp set. Here's my
Before I jump into today’s project, I want to gently remind you that today is the last day of Stampin’ Up!’s July-December 2022 Sale-a-Bration. I already know I’ll receive o…
My love of school supplies and office supplies drove me to the craft of card making. I love (and have always loved) anything to do with stationary, notebooks and sharp pencils, so it makes sense that I'd love cardstock, inks and stamps, right? I was immediately happy when I saw
I try to mix things up day-after-day. As I was adding the final touches to the card I'm sharing with you today, it occurred to me that I've done the unthinkable - I've shared two pink cards in a row. Yesterday I shared a Pretty in Pink beauty (head-to-toe pink).
It has been brought to my attention that I often design cards with a bold angle. Sometimes it stems from a sketch that inspires me, but sometimes it adds an interesting twist to the straight up-and-down designs I most frequently create. Either way, a diagonal slant often finds its way

The past two weeks of Summer 2023 One-for-One Card Swaps has been SO MUCH FUN! All good things, though, must come to an end. Today is the last day of all the amazing shares I received. Welcome to DAY SEVEN of the projects from my Summer 2023 One-for-One Card Swap.

The title of this blog post ('A Gorgeously Made Thank You Card') makes me giggle because it sounds like I'm bragging about the card I have made to share with you. While I'm happy with how it turned out, the name of the bundle is Gorgeously Made. :) Here's a

Stampin' Up! demonstrators were able to access the upcoming Holiday Mini Catalog (September - December 2024 Mini Catalog). I'm happy to report that the entire book is amazing! Like me, you are going to have a really, really, really long wish list from this book - and I'm more than
I love to collect and use Stampin' Up!'s Designer Series Papers. What a great way to find inspiration for our projects! The colors and patterns pair perfectly with other products we love. Since the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper debuted in Stampin' Up!'s August - December 2020 Mini Catalog,
Today's the day! Over the past several weeks, I've been running to my mail box to collect the GORGEOUS cards you've sent for my Summer 2023 One-for-One Card Swap. The cards were delivered to the post office last weekend, and today I have the pleasure of sharing some of them

Here in the United States, it's Thanksgiving - it's my favorite day in my favorite season of the year. Not only do we have an extended vacation (Thanksgiving always falls on Thursday, and we are granted to following day as an additional holiday day), but the day is focused on
Touchdown! I landed (well, the plane I was resting in landed) in Salt Lake City yesterday afternoon, and I am ready to begin [what I’m sure will be] one of the greatest weeks of my life. Yi…
This week's Global Design Project Color Challenge offers us three colors, and we get to add an extra one. What fun! The 'assigned colors' are Peekaboo Peach, Bermuda Bay and Early Espresso. To this variety of colors (all are found in the Cupcakes & Carousels Suite of products), I added
