It's our last Feature Friday with Caly, Dana, and Ilina, and they are going out with a BANG! The projects they've made are so much fun and they make us even more excited to create with the Perfect Match Bundle and the Sweet Sayings Dies. A huge thank you goes out to these incredible crafters for sharing their talents w

Hello Ai fans! I have found myself in need of a handful of masculine cards recently!  I pulled out one of the Ai clear stamp sets calle...

Sometimes all you need is STAMPS, INK and PAPER.  This is one of those stamp sets....and I threw in an NEW Embossing folder for some texture...

You don't need a bunch of stamp sets to create a spooky Halloween scene. I'll show you how I created this one from the Tim Holtz Sketch Manor set.

I need several masculine birthday cards for December birthdays. Lovely as a Tree is the perfect stamp set for a masculine card. I have been a demonstrator for five years now and I just purchased this stamp set this past summer. I believe this is one of the longest running stamp sets for Stampin’ Up! Now that I have used it I understand why it is so popular. The images stamp flawlessly. I stamped it… Continue reading

Perhaps I shouldn't say this, but I LOVE this card.  The Stampin' Up! Dazzling Diamonds takes the card from cute baby card to a WOW baby card. Where did my Mojo come from? I do not have baby stamp sets due to where I am in my life right now.  So when I need to make a baby card I rely on using other stamp sets in a unique way.  I recently created a… Continue reading

Thanks, Lisa, for the CAS theme, SHOES. I am in need a few baby cards in my stash so this was the perfect opportunity. The two stamp sets I have used for this card are both retired. TFL

I do not usually do posts using the Host Rewards Stamp Sets, as not everyone can easily purchase them.  You need a party, or an individual order, of $150.00 minimum to purchase these sets.  But this particular set immediately caught my attention when I first viewed the Holiday Catalog.  I just love the sweetness and […]

Hello everyone! I'm thrilled to be part of MFT's April release! As always there are tons of fantastic products that you just need to have in your stash. :) I made a few cards using the newly released stamp sets. For my first card, I used Stacey Yacula's 'Hugs make everything better ' stamp set.…

Today I am playing along with another challenge over at the Fab Friday Challenge Blog. This week's challenge is a sketch (shown to the right).  I have made a list of stamp sets that I need to spend more time with and the Weather Together Stamp Set was one of them. As I was working on laundry, an idea came to me.

When the new catalog comes out, it can be a bit overwhelming, wouldn’t you agree?  So many stamp sets, bundles, and accessories.  Many times, for me at least, I see a stamp set and it just doesn’t sink it how awesome it is just by looking at it.  I need a little help and inspiration. […]

I know it's not a great 'business decision,' but I love to have all of the stamps and papers available to me - just in case I need one of them to create a look.  Today's project is composed of three stamp sets - thank goodness I had all three

Did you know...when someone wants to borrow something from you (that you didn't even know you owned), that all of a sudden, you NEED to use it yourself? Well, that was the case with the Stampin' Up! stamp set, From the Crypt! A friend of mine wanted to stamp some Halloween invites. So I dug out the three Halloween stamp sets I own. Lo and behold...From the Crypt was calling out to me! Stamp with me...stamp with me! (Does that ever happen to you?) Here are the results that feature the Soot Stamping Technique... I taught Soot Stamping at my...

Hello! You might need your sunglasses on for today’s bright Easter card… I’ve used Magenta Madness, Gorgeous Grape and Granny Apple Green to stamp this card, using the Timeless Tulips and Arrange A Wreath stamp sets. In this video I show you how to mask off the tulips when you stamp the leaves, so they ... Read More about Timeless Tulips Easter card with masking tutorial

I have so many Simple & Sweet Valentines ideas in my head that just need to come out. Here is Day 2 of simple Valentine's Day cards you can make. Love machines is one of my favorite A Muse Studio stamp sets. I love the retro feel, the little robots...

The variety of images in the butterfly prints stamp set from Stampin’ Up! is fab.  I used one of them to make this thank you card for my friend... Here's what you need to make this card - all supplies are from Stampin’ Up! cardstock: whisper white, crumb cake, naturals ivory; stamp sets: butterfly prints, teeny tiny wishes; ink:…

I'm (((finally))) back with a "one stamp, five ways" posts today! I LOVE working on these - especially with stamp sets that I love which are usually flower stamps! It's fun thinking of different ways to use one set. But I have noticed that I am repeating similar ways to use stamps in each of these posts. So take note that I have taken note that I need to take note to come up with some new ways to use stamps if I want to teach others anything at all! haha Today I am sharing a very new stamp set by Simon Says Stamp called Artsy Flower Parts. There is also an Artsy Flower Parts Die Set (with quite a...

One of the first things I look for in a new annual catalog is whether or not Lovely as a Tree stamp set has been retired. It was first introduced in 2001 and it’s one of my favorite sets. So one might ask why do I need another tree themed […]
