Hello friends! I'm sharing a FREE Card Class this first Saturday in June, 6/1/2024. This month I'm sharing the Sweet Peas stamp set from Stampin' Up! I fell in love with this adorable imagery the minute I saw this set and knew I'd want to create a class around it.Sometimes, stamp sets with smaller images can be more difficult to use in design. In this class, I'm going to share a couple of ways to work with smaller images to give them the spotlight they deserve and make your card designs shine!Y

Hi there stamping friends! Thanks for stopping here at my blog. Today I'm playing along with the sketch challenge over at the Global Design Project #446 | #GDP446 | Sketch Challenge. It's been a white since I've played along over at the GDP but was super keen to join their sketch challenge for this week. As soon as I saw the sketch over on Instagram I had a few ideas swirling around in my head. I had just recieved an order from Stampin' Up! a few days ago with the amazing Mediterannean Blooms Suite and knew that is what I wanted to use for my card today. I've predominantly used the Mediterranean Blooms DSP for this card. I'm so loving the blue and white DSP patterns and when you combine a couple of these patterns together they make for an amazing project. Doesn't the DSP look like those Mediterranean blue-and-white tile designs? I love it! On the other side of the blue and white DSP designs is are beautiful images of blossoming lemons and oranges. These citrus fruits make a beautiful contrast to the blue and white and are beautiful to fussy cut and use on their own, on the front of your card, like what I've done here. I've layered the lemon image on one of the Spotlight on Nature circles and a foliage die cut from the Citrus Blooms Dies. Due to the busy-ness of the amazing DSP I thought the card didn't need much else other than some Linen Thread, some Opal Rounds and the heat embossed Happy Birthday Sentiment that comes from the Friends for Life Stamp Set. Did I say I'm loving this DSP? I'm sure there will be more project using this stunning paper. Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy Stamping! Live in Australia?

Oh my goodness, this Bundle is TOO cute! It's called the Sophisticated Sled Bundle and I must tell you, the dies are over the top darling! Let me show you what I mean... Look at the skates in the picture above. The dies cut out the white skates with little slits for the laces. Then there are other dies for the laces. I used Pretty in Pink cardstock, cut out the laces, and then tucked them into the little slits in the skates. They fit perfectly and look so realistic. There are separate dies for the blades, and I used

Hello and welcome to our All Star Tutorial Bundle Design Team Blog Hop for February 2022. This month we are using the Artfully Composed Suite.

Here is my project for today. I have combined designer series paper, dies and stamps from the Artfully Composed Suite together with other staples from my collection. The front of the Thick Basic White card base is completely covered with an embossed piece of Basic White. The Wintry 3-d Embossing Folder is one of the narrower folders, but I've hidden the join under the decorative panel, and I love how the texture complements the DSP. The DSP panel is the full height of the card and is enhanced with a narrow border of Evening Evergreen and a decorative, die cut Pear Pizzazz border. I've also used Pear Pizzazz for the die cut spray of leaves but, to provide some contrast, the larger leaf is cut from the slightly darker shade of Old Olive. For consistency, I stamped the leaf detail and the sentiment using Evening Evergreen ink and I really like the way it pops against the green and the white. I'm also really pleased how the Stitched Rectangle die cut label is such a perfect fit for the sentiment! To complete the card I added some sparkle (Iridescent Rhinestones and Wink of Stella on the larger leaf) and a dainty Baker's Twine bow. This was so much fun to put together and I'm really pleased with how it turned out. I hope you like it too. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

I've recently rearranged my stamping room and office, combining them together (lovin' it!). While I was cleaning and reorganizing, I came across some old projects from when I first was introduced to Stampin' Up! 10 years ago. In addition, I came across a card online that reminded of this technique and I thought I'd bring it "back from the past"! My "old" project featured a technique that was shared with me at one of the first Stampin' Up! parties I attended. Stamping all three layers at the same time. When you "pull them apart", you could use them on different...
